16km sounds more like it from what i've heard too. The map isnt very helpful liek that

Well, in almost exactly 48 hours ill be lined up at the start about to get very dirty

Any tips of tricks anybdy has heard would be nice. The two things i was told to do were to tape my shoes on, and carry paw paw ointment for irratated skin.

Well fcuk me

Less than 24 hours before start time and i've never felt more ready for anything!

Back feels good, legs arent sore, and ready to have a laugh

For anybody else going, ill be wearing bright orange shoes i bought from america on the cheap to destroy, so dont be afraid to hi5 on the way through.

Totally, this is going to be a slow job for me, the obsticles is what im looking forward to

cant wait to take a running dive (assassins creed style) off the platform into the water

This is too cool, i serioulsy cant wait for this

test fires up suburban superheroes for tough mudder competition

I honestly dont think it was that tough, they talked it up a lot. I rolled my ankle at about the 8km mark I think (at the top of the greased lighting bit) and still managed to finish. Looks like I have broken a bone in my foot so going to get xrays done tomorrow

The electric shock was no worse than someone flicking you.

Still was a lot of fun and will be doing it again, hopefully the Sydney one in September

did you make it???

i believe the saying is... like a boss

what a truely excellent way to spend a day

lucky i left in one of the first groups, i heard it was absolute bedlam in the groups that went from 10am onwards

will definately be doing it again, was exactly what i was hoping for

Unforunetly I only heard about this 2 days before the event from a bloke at gym.

Sounds exactly like the stuff I enjoy, testing/pushing myself etc...

Would be keen for the next one in VIC whenever that is, only thing holding me back is my runnning, at a fast pace I can get 3kms in 12mins then die or 5kms in 25ish miins then die....

but some people say the running is not so bad as when it is a bit busy, you will jog, wait x mins becasue an event is busy, do the event and continue running, so you get that time to catch your breath.

Upperbody stregnth etc would not be an issue.

Birds - if theres one near melb in the future we could do it ? :)

Also, I looked into a few others. I fcking wish we had this here! would be awesome! CLICK ->>>>> http://runforyourlives.com/ http://www.theaustra...o-1226158008430

If you go early, you dont wait for anything. I didnt wait at any obsticle for one second

You dont need to be a strong runner at all to do this, just generally fit and have a good attitude. Because it was very sunny the course was relatively good fun, if you had to do it in the rain and wind, then thats a whole mental aspect that i dont think many people faced this time.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
