That’s sick.

Looking forward to whatbyou think about the efr with the “laggy big rear housing”. ?

Sadly won’t be apples with apples however will report back ( mainly with lap times) 

same motor but upgrades include: valve springs, coil packs, crank kit to keep halal tech happy, dry sump and 4:4 diff gears

 

it better feel better

I've seen plenty of videos, results look pretty bloody good to me! 

Maybe he just got sick of some of the carry on that goes on in build threads? 

Given how some people behave around here these days, there's much less of an incentive to share all the ups and downs of a build.

So, what is happening with this build?

In the garage on the trickle charger. ?

Drive it every couple of weeks and just getting used to the box. Low speed, low rpm shifting without the clutch without making it go BANG/CRASH. Getting there ?.

Wont be touching it again for a very long time. The level of “over it” is very high. 

With the 1.45 housing it went 517 AWKW, up from 486. Turbine speed remained the same at 122,000 RPM.

The box is quite pleasant to drive to be honest, you just can’t drive it like a synchro box.

No need to justify anything lol. Could sit in the garage for all I care.

Who gives a shit if the box is 5k or 25k and what the intended purpose was.

This is the shit I'm talking about, someone does something, anything, and people almost always go out of their way to tell the owner why it was wrong/wasn't what they said originally/not what their tuner recommended etc and straight away we're into hand bags and anti roll racing shit, again. 
 

Who f**king cares, goals and opinions change, sometimes quite often and very quickly. Deal with it and maybe more people would post more info on their builds.

Are you sad because you sold the AU? :(

Hah, nope. Will be glad to not have to move it to the new house.

Am sick of what this place has become in the last few years.

I thought flat cap drifter f**ks had ruined it, but just as many GTR/Big build wankers with too many opinions and egos doing it just as much damage.

Lol I like to stir pigsarse up
 
but he is onto me and doesn’t bite
 
actiondan delivers though
 
yea baby
 
 
Surprised you have the time mate, thought you'd be too busy overcharging people for used GTR junk?

    • 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.
