GTX3076

2.8 (comp is supposedly 8.2) - Stock exhaust manifold, stock airbox, 3in exhaust, automatic transmission (the slip up top was 8% through it), return flow cooler, etc.

As for how it occurred.. it really did occur at about 30kmh, driving in 4th gear (which is 5th for you manual people) minding my own business turning right, UNDER the 'advisory' speed for that corner.

I had 30 eggs in the passenger seat. None of them cracked. I hope this leads Mr Shannons Assessor to believe me when I say I wasn't driving like a tool in the rain and it was a low speed impact.

See photos I linked a few posts above with the imgur link

Or I'll just post it again -> http://imgur.com/a/2JKpW

Pretty much had a direct impact on both passenger side wheels - whatever holds them straight (i.e, rods of which I do not know/cannot define/of unknown origin) are clearly snapped or bent. Or I just got a free wheel alignment of about 30 degrees of toe at the rear, and a front passenger wheel which decides it doesn't have time to listen to the steering rack anymore.

There's a good fist/sized (in volume) dent in the front bumper too, right under the front indicator on the passenger side. I didn't take a photo of that cause I dunno, I was busy being rained on, and such.

it was right here -> https://goo.gl/maps/r4XxQ

There's a farm here -> https://goo.gl/maps/SAsmh that claims to sell the best eggs in the world. They're really good. What better thing to randomly do on a sunday than taking a nice relaxed drive through the hills to buy eggs, to just enjoy the fact your car is finally working, because it's far too wet to do any 'spirited' driving?

People saw the dyno sheet and asked me what its like to drive... I don't even know.

I'm just going to cry myself to sleep now.

Don't ever go to burwood hwy tepanyake. Had to go for a bday and now I'm f**ked with food poisoning.

Fkn disgraceful cooks were using the spatulas to turn the lights on/off and and used the same cloth the waitresses used to clean the tables and chairs to oil the stove

They don't even know how to fkn cook. f**king pissed me off more when you here some dumb f**k go oh he's a good chef.

looool sucks to be you....

especially today!

Inb4 Pat launches into tirade about 80% of chefs meeting this stereotype

that's fair, 80% of cooks/chef absolutely suck anus.

I worked f**king hard not to be in that 80% so stereotype away! ;)

Sad to hear about the accident!

But that is an awesome dyno graph!

Got specs on the Engine build?

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • 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.
