I'm painting the house inside and out as well as the garage/loft

And no pub this weekend unless ts at the bay

Taking the boat up Sat arvo and hitting the drink with friends and then taking boat out Sunday

Who's in?

FYI Jarrad and Martin

Just saw this on facebook so you could give hi octane a call if you wanted in.

"Anyone here with a R34 GTT in Sydney? Hi Octane Racing need to trial fit their new airbox. Anyone that wants to bring a car to 36 Mary Pde Rydalmere and let them fit one gets to keep it for free! I was just there, the offer is still good..."

Yeah I'm still keen!!! Details??

Were painting atm :)

I'll send you a text

Painting is fun, I love it when you spend alllll day doing it and the wife comes along does one brush stroke and says look how much I've done I painted the whole thing and BTW the little bit you did there I can see you missed a bit.

thanks for the heads up benji.

way to busy for that right now though

just spent 5 hours trying to finish wiring my tv in the bedroom for a wall mount, got to mounting the ariel fitting to the wall which would have made the job finished and dropped the bracket down into the wall. many many many many swears....

haha emma had a good crack with me on monday, solid 9 hour day we got in, and... we did 1 coat in the hallway.... though, there are 6 doorways and it was emmas first try.

Oh I feel your pain with dropping stuff

Awwwww poor Emma

We all have to start somewhere I suppose

was that depressed man haha...

i now have around 5 mins of work to finish it, but no parts.

yeah she was getting better, i think her problem was she wasnt putting enough paint on the wall to begin with, so when she went for her finish she had nothing to work with.

id like to claim im in full blown natural, even emma admitted i was heaps better then her haha. steady electrician hands :D

    • 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
