Spotted lots of nice racing Porsche's today in a workshop in Melbourne :) Including a nice Black 4wd 540HP twin Turbo GT2 race car mmmmmmmmmm

DELUXE would have seen a few last weekend to Sandown. Did you get a chance to see the Aston Darren before Johny had a hissy fit and left early?

Plenty of nice Skylines in Melbourne.

Yeh dude that Aston was killa, as well as a silver Ferrari, and sooooo many Porsches were out there also, you can definatly tell they have more cash than us over here....... When we went over we were sharing a pit wall shed with a GT40, some old chilla steering it, Theres us with a rx7, 808 and Celica, and then a GT40, was amusing!!!

I was pissed i missed out on the round. On friday i was down in the Auto-Art Porsche teams workshop. They had half the Porsches that were competing in there, the Locon 911 Turbo was very nice. Teds Ferrari 360NGT is an awesome car although i think he spent more money in the engine bay lining than what my car cost!!

Spotted a black 32 GTST with LED rear lights and and 34 GTT (look alike) rear spoiler on it on sturt rd heading into marion today.

Yeh dude thats the one......... They even had another one out the back of the pits that had damaged drivers side brake lights, that would be expensive to fix......LOL

Looks like i might be going over again but to Phillip Island for another one of their rounds, Love that track, so much better than any other purpose built track! We've got our next round of the state series coming up in a few eeks, It's just not gonna feel the same....LOL

Thought i'd do a driveby past boostworx on the way home and saw a white 33 GTR going up boothby ave or street or whatever it is, went round the round about then stopped at boostworx as i kept going past. Flashed high beemers and got the thumbs up, tough looking car. Also a silver/grey 180sx stopped there just before the 33, also looked nice.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • 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 !
