Sorry Dane. I forgot about the wrist when I wrote that... I reckon Thomson will have a good chance getting up the front although the people that have been the last few years will benifit from knowing the course unlike us 3.

As of last night chris is coming 4th was a 53.8, I'm was 40th with 58.6, Ryan has done a 1:00.8

Chris is upsetting the front guys as he's not far behind them and the fastest on semis. We're feeling left out as everyone is using soft compound slicks...

Awesome weekend!!! Very cool set up they have over there.

Chris definately caused a stir :)

Some very impressive cars

Condolences to Dave from SA - not a good ending for you at all, but it was great to see you back in high spirits on Sunday. Wishing you the best of luck with the repairs

Good job mate!

So are you ready to do a Targa event or what now Russ? :)

haha. Maybe if I had the budget... For now it's just track days, Deca's, Hill climbs and Superlaps... That's enough for the wallet at this stage.

LOL, there is 12-15k just there :)

Yeah pretty much. My wallet hates me these days.. 4k in tyres, 1-2k brakes, 1k fluids, 2k fuel per year. That's as long as I don't break anything, or want to upgrade anything.

Hopefully small upgrades in the next year won't cost me much.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Maybe it's time for a M3 F80 LCI, and leave it stock.  Drive it to a shop, sip on your latte with nutmeg whilst it gets serviced and on the way home swing by and grab some chai mix for the evening.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
