Hey mat,

Emma has told me her dad won't be in gosford for the night before Wakie! Do younknow if there's any vacant places for Thursday night???

Ruxis, just do an early morning run to Wakie...

Theres bugger all traffic at 4am in the morning, you'll hit sydney at 6am, miss most of the traffic when the sun is rising and get to Wakie by 8ish.

Thats probably when I'm leaving. The old man is probably tagging along with me to come spectate, he used to have a stack of old cars like a couple of worked LJ Torana's, VK Group A Brock Commodore etc...wish he didnt sell them. He's even been talking that he wouldnt mind doing a track day in the S15 haha.

Also, found out my aunty sold an immaculate 260z (with original bonnet scoop - rare as f**k) for $2000 several years ago because it had engine problems. Facepalm.jpg. My uncle did something similar when he sold his SLR5000 Torana for bugger all (ages ago due to packing the shits from getting hassled/defected by the police all the time).

Moral of the story, don't sell nostaglia vehicles, HOLD ON TO THEM haha.

Could do man but that's f**kin early to then race around all day and I'm only going for the Friday.

I could stay with my folks but that's a 3 hour drive still. Suppose leaving at 5 isn't to bad.

See what happens. Could even stay at a town near ghoulburn

Don't want to modify the stock rail to get my larger bore injectors in - so i'm ordering a 11mm billet rail.

Just wanted to know if the stock regulator can be removed so i can reuse it or if i had to get a new one. Been in the middle of butt f*ck know where atm, i can't just go look at the car to find out ...

Ohhhh.... Aftermarket are cheap enough if you cant use it anyway man!

As in motels etc? Should be plenty man! Jump on Wotif and have a look, should be able to get a cheap room for a night with a park for the car etc........

I think the adrenalin from racing around the track will keep you going haha.

Matt, I've sent you a PM

and just realised you have organised someone to do the paint, so my PM will be irrelevant haha!

Yeah all good! Thanks for trying tho.........

Yep fouled plugs will give you a nice miss as you come on boost.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
