Dropped the mrs home just before, not gonna lie - the TCS was flicked to off

Other than that it's perfect SWTOR/Skyrim weather :banana:

Or perfect weather to sit at the southern and get drunk for one of the guys from work birthday. If I wasn't going to the pub I would be sitting in the racing simulator playing GT5 all day

How was JDMland? Also where is my 34 GTR or KPGC110? I hope it's on the boat on the way over to me thumbsup.gif

Keen for the cruise Nick? Completely forgot to send you a text about it.

Yep 180 Nick.

Also how good is this weather?

Anyone keen for a photoshoot next month?

Just got back from Japland 2 days ago.

Nikk:

Yes...its me! Massive SAU fanboy/troll but proud non-skyline owner :D

Chris:

Couldn't get your cars for you, Chris. BUT I saw some pretty cheap ones for sale over there...couple hundred k's north of Tokyo with 'special' glow in the dark paint. Dealer guarantees me the paint will stay that way for at least the life of the car and then some :P

In all seriousness, I managed to see heaps of decent vehicles there...still plenty around but they only show up at night mostly.

I got some pretty pictures too...although most cars escaped the camera lens (mostly headed in the opposite direction, too quick for me to get the camera out)

If I show you some pictures of said cars you requested, will that suffice?

You guys just keep posting up details of cruises on here or text me, please. Might not make it for all but will definitely try haha

Defo keen on the glow in dark paint one, only if it's glow in the dark green thumbsup.gif

I guess pictures will have to do. Good to hear there are still some good ones getting around over there.

Only details about our cruises I will be post up on here from now on will be the date and whether it's a pub cruise or going to a sau event, all final details will be kept on the down low, as per request of a couple of the locals

Hey guys,

Just wondering if any of you have heard of the Oakey or Pitsworth races? Has anyone on here competed in them or know the routes they take?

Cheers

Are you talking about the sprints? Have never been was going to go last year but had other things on the same weekend but planning on having a look of I have time this year. Some of the guys from work went to both last year and said it was really good. Here is a map of the Pitsworth sprint course http://www.pittsworthsprints.com/course.htm

I used to head out an camp at the leyburn sprints heaps in school and after. One of my mates brothers had an old XY he used to flog around the course - and he was no expert. I'm sure you could give it a crack however they are 'historical' sprints so not sure what the categories are for cars.

Maybe we should cruise out as a club for a peep on Sunday? Being the last day everyone goes a lot harder.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
