Ahhh welcome to the wasteland. Have to have another cruise soon when the weather is a bit more promising.

He was killed in the truck or by a truck?

Yeah not great weather for cruising, we should do Kinglake and surrounds sometime?

He was driving a truck and left the road.

Some good routes up there, I'd be up for it. However, of recent it's a known hotspot for the popo / yellow sticker people...so the more modified of us might not be so keen. Will have a chat with Tony and see what we can do.

Sad shit that, that you can be minding your own business without a worry in the world and in the next 10 seconds you're dead through no actions of your own.

These are the thoughts that bikelinesaustralia put up with everytime we ride.

That's what I said! Truck driver probably won't get anything either

So sad

Current brake set up is F242/Rdrums right. Should me buy brakes from vtec that are F262/R239 that'll be $500. Or wait out for Type R F282/R262 that will be 5lug (means have to buy new wheels/tyres) and would cost $1k for the brakes alone.

I wont be tracking this thing as of yet, but it'll be nice to get rid of the drums. Do some deca's ect.

Leaning towards the F262/R239 4x100. Which I can go pick up right nao.

take a lesson from all the old skyline owners here. Dont spend money on parts you dont need, Get out on the track/deca first and then decide what needs to be done.

Everyone falls into the trap of building track cars for a hypothetical track day sometime in the future.

Get out there now, find the limits with current setup, then replace to push the limit further.

if it was human error / fatigue i say put him away for 40 years cos that shits f**ked - shouldn't be able to wipe someone out and get away with it

Haha I knew you'd say that...almost done.

Good call on the weather...deceiving shit.

can't wait til i am in le position in which i can afford both my car and a bike!

meanwhile in my current situation... coilpacks so expensive fffuu :P

You never win, when you are in le position there will always be more expensive things to get.

My r32 was better off when I was a student on casual wages. Now its all about budgeting & being serious with money :(

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
    • Summernats cruiser?
    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
