Goddamn, some fit looking 32's out there!

not sure about all these watermarks though, some are right across the middle of the screen and ruin the image completely. I prefer what this guy did, actually used the track signage to throw his name up, looks a lot more professional, the car is completely visible and if you didnt know your pixels would even swear it wasn't photoshopped!

was pretty happy with that. Think its my only shot from EC too.

onwards with a few other randoms..

Thanks to Kory/7Tune for this one :)

True mate. The photographic quality that follows the event is fantastic. All the official pics without watermarks are an extra $400 (from memory)

Yeah that's why pretty much all of my Targa pics have watermarks - always been too tight to fork out the $400 on pics! :)

Here's some others of my car(s) I've found laying around.

And a good one of the last girl before the suspension was sorted!

3rd pic is my all time favorite - taken on the back track at DECA Shepparton.

Last pic answers the question I was often asked earlier this year.

"How did you go from being so "average" at Wrest Point to on the money at Targa Tas?"

Answer - I fixed the suspension! (Because otherwise it was the same damn car.)

I have a good one or two from that exact same spot at DECA in the white R34... 2007 Dutton was it?

That is a bloody exciting little track to drive at max attack! :)

I've always wondered..... what does the number plate signify?

You are so uncultured :)

It's the name of the dragon out of Tolkien's novel "The Hobbit" - because the old girl was also a fire breathing, money hoarding monster. :)

Have to see what i can find on my work laptop and photobucket

1st, My old 32gtst at the Oran Park Skidpan

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
