NUGGGGGETTTT!!!!!

cant even do a 1:06 around south circuit :P

Probably could quite easily :P But not until i learn to drive it haha... Havent had much seat time and with the issues i get everytime i try it makes it hard lol

Damn Mat! Car Looks Tough as and has the Balls to back it up. :D

Alot can change in a year hey?

Goodonya Buuuuddy. :thumbsup:

Haha thanks mate! Yep a year has gone quick and plenty has changed.... Car is getting there but has been a bit neglected due to the house and stuff! Anyway 2014 should be its year lol

STFU you!

Why don't you jump in and teach some of us plebs to steer! :P

This!

NO SMOKE? Guess you actually do need a Super99 then :P

You are never going to let up until i run a HTZ are you? :P I like your style haha

So i tried to sneak the car too the new house on a tow truck so i could work on it later but managed to get caught out by a mate -

Anyway, the car made it home safely and the tow truck driver was super helpful, reversed it up the driveway and right into the shed -

So the car has its new home and i will try get my tools and stuff across there on the weekend! I think the shed will need its own build thread so i can come up with some designs... At this stage i am working on something like this -

This way i can have the car straight in the middle bay normally but if any major works are required i can spin him around sideways and have heaps of space... Should be good once its sorted..

Then maybe i should coat this white and do the white writing on the tyres? :rofl:

Envious of your shed space :P

The shed levelling also reduced the angle of the tow tray so I'm guessing it came off easy lol

Yeah it came off much easier than it went on... Even with ramps we still managed to hurt the front bar some more :wacko:

Lololol fark off! I get enough of that from Mr Lith :P

wow.. I want your shed.. that's so sexy, if you saw my garage it looks like a detention centre for Honda boys

Haha that is just the shed, there is a 3 bay garage in the house too :D

Design plan for the garage looks good, need a bigger beer fridge though :P

Haha well funny you say that, we have ended up with fridges everywhere! We purchased a new stainless one so they threw it a bar fridge, this means we now have 2 full size fridges and 2 bar fridges so beer will always be within reach :P

Oh and i took this pic yesterday to show what happened to the second plazmaman silicon joiner within 4-5 laps -

Turbo outlet? Ouch.

Need some hard pipes mate. I have also learnt the hard way that silicon pipe joiners should never be used in anything but straight sections. Used on bends like that is just asking for trouble.

I used to have VERY similar issues. Now changed to a different piping layout that only uses straight joiners.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
