Massive shame going out to the 4 idiots in the VL on Bridge road this afternoon... Trying to get into a street race (which I declined) who then roared off up to about 150 to 160 KMPH...

who then missed a family in a four wheel drive who had turned right onto a side street... I watched in horror as you braked and drifted out of control around the rear of the four wheel drive...

I still do not know how you missed them... But it was not to do with skill...

Just pure never to be seen again LUCK :(:(:(

If I had your plate I would have reported you already........ :domokun:

VL's are renowned for their amazing handling... coulda been pure commodore awesomeness :) haha

Fkn morons exist everywhere, can't change it, just be thankful it's not you (or you have grown up).

That sounds exactly like the scene in Back to the Future where Marty didn't take on the drag and reversed up the road instead. If he had of he would of hit a family. Glad you made the right decision.

I try to be responsible... My Missus works for MAC in major crash so I get the lecture and the horror stories all the time. I still give a bit every now and then but a busy road on news years eve is definitely not the place....

Pick your battles. Well done.

It's a good thing to keep in the back of your mind, spesh over the holiday period, nobody wants to be a statistic

Anyway there was no chance he would have taken the Skyline ;) would have been a waste of fuel and clutch lol

Guess this is the place for a Name n Shame/bitch about others driving!?!

XHP-156 R33 GTST Silver, Sth Rd this morning, said skyline driver pulls some fn stupid overtake & lane change, blindly across 3 or 4 lanes of traffic & straight into the side of my 7, slammed brakes mega ABS action, just touched the curb (slight mark on tyre only) & he missed the front of my car by barely mm's; I honestly thought I was going to PIT manoeuvre him. I naturally after recovering & taking in my Mad Skillz & luck, beeped & flashed headlights, then pull along side & gave the dude wtf, you were this close to a really bad day & use your fricken eyes type signal, & the SOB had the audacity to give me the finger! So, if this is you or you know of this guy, please politely inform him that that is seriously not cool & to pull his fn head in! If you/he wants to drive like a total muppet, do it along way from me ,or next time it wont be a friendly message on a forum! *( one of my first customers today was one of the sergeant's from sturt, I was going to tell him, but decided to try to pass the message on to him/you via our car community first!)

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
