Pulled the gearbox apart and what a mess! That's what 'clicking 3rd' with hot 295 AO50's will do to a 33 gearbox!  With some bits purchased from another donor box and help from Donny at For

Clean and up in the air. Final bits of work required to hit the track in November.

Wow. Yeah it has been a long time since an update in this thread. It's been laid up for a while. Sitting on stands and collecting dust. The last 2 years of my life has been a case of home renovation

Bit more of an update. I'm working in Swan Hill for 10 days at a time so I've got limited time to work on the car. Still with help from my mate Matt Femino we're still making progress

Headlight moulds are coming along

My sexy Tein RS's have arrived as well. Happy that the spring rates are the same as my last set. Should have better bump and rebound adjustment now for a bit more fine tuning.

Thanks to Aaron from Import Monster with his help in getting these in from Japan.

I cleaned up the rest of the sound deadening and prepped it for the cage.

Loading up to go to Trackart to get the cage fitted.

I pick up the car this Friday so I'll be finishing the interior and cage painting.

I've still gotta replace the gearbox as the old one had synchro clips fall out of the drain hole when I did my last oil change. 4th gear synchro is no longer there lol.

Hopefully June 11th will be my next outing... lots to do!

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
