Might just have to go speak to the new owner of Stu's R32... I had been told LS2... Last person who mentioned it to me (Who worked on the car) mentioned 7.4Litres... And that thing was bullshit quick when it was only 5.7L!!!

Where did you read about the GT2 Lotus?

If its the Lotus I think it is its nothing to be worried about. Its the car that Brad Jones and Larry Perkins ran in the 12hr at Bathurst and in the Production Class. Quick and capable car...but no doubt still in line with its class rules in order to maintain its history.

Really? It was for sale a few years ago (~2005) for about 60k. I hear the current owner has restored it and wants faar more now :)

The original history of the car as I understand it from the 2005 add was that it was the same trim/model that was raced at Le Mans. But this particular car never raced at Le Mans. It was specially built for the Aus category and had some bits that were not so production S4S. I remember back in the day, Porsche had the CS model, Mazda the SP so Lotus had some bastardised S4S/GT300 parts

Its a cool thing but its not like the GT1 Esprit that was able to race against the McLaren F1 and beat it in the 90s

    • So I’m having issues with my power steering. the obvious heavy and light and comes on and off randomly now it’s constantly heavy. I’ve read through forums regarding this issue and what I’ve gather is that it’s referring to hicas deletion. That’s the problem mine didn’t come with hicas.    I’ve rebuilt the steering rack, pump, changed the bent hardline on the rack and taken out the solenoid to clean and loosen up the actuator, applied 12v to get it moving. Roughly checked the loom to see if there’s any damage to the loom and nothing. Now I’m checking the wiring. I’ve tested the wiring to the solenoid and it’s fluctuating between 0.07v to 0.03v. Does anyone know what it’s supposed to be reading? 5v? Anyone one know how this all works? Is there a fuse in between? What else is it connected to? How does it connect to the speed sensor? A resistor fried in the ecu? Please help. It’s been years Thanks in advance 
    • that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.
    • Found a car that has kiki desing wheels on it with diffrent plates that match a 2008 model when clearly it's not white  
    • Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench
