Hey all Troy did not blow his engine at wakie just had a few top end dramas, should be all sorted now and the engine ran strong at EC this week.

The car is running well and Troy is feeling good from the data we got and feedback from Troy with some more seat time before WTAC it should be well into the 30's.

Will be good to see the open RWD battle I think a 33-35 will be needed to get the RWD title but for the class Mmm don't know maybe a 32? Dam some of the cars in open will be fast.

There is some mental stuff being built. Big question is how many will be ready and developed in time I guess.

I think I'll be in same boat again this year where I'm a year behind! My time last year was fast enough for RWD winner in 2010 and my time this year will probably good for 2011 but not fat enough for this year.

Once you go well into the 30s, money and development time start to have an exponential impact! I'm out of both!

So true. Being a year behind every year!

Doesn't matter Russman, we'll have fun cracking gates and driving hard! Even if i had the money some of the other cars do, I dont think I'd pour it all into the car. Mine owes me a bit but less than half of the big hitters. I did buy $23 fender flares off ebay though. Thats how i roll!

We had a container land on our driveway yesterday and unpacked this bad boy fresh from Japan

That's where my container with my R35 ended up! Damn shipping companies, can't trust em.

Good luck in Pro. I'd love to see the car get a quick time in Pro.

Mark Berry punted the hi octane 34 gtr around the qr sprint track in 51.4 today, the fastest timeattack lap ever.

Did this on last years superlap used 265 semis and one corner with a river running through it.

Damn impressive. :worship:

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
