You pair have nothing

You want a long cruise head out through cessnock to broke then take Charlie's road across to putty rd the head out the golden hwy to sandy hollow and turn onto Bylong Valkey way which goes back to Richmond then a short hop to Windsor and back up putty road to singleton and home

that doesnt look too bad, but looks to actually be a shorter route!

The Putty run we did a few years back was a long day, we did Old Pac, Galston Gorge, Windsor and then Putty Rd through to Singleton..... It was a 2 fuel stop trip on that run..... On that note, how far is that drive in KM? And have you mapped out fuel stops? (Taking into account that ill only make <300kms to a tank lol

ful trip is 650kms... you would have to see where to get your fuel from.

I will bring a spare bottom end, ill have to change that out when u guys fix what u break :ph34r:

Good plan! Anyone got a 2 poster they can bring?

I fuelled up in Sydney and then again in Singleton on our run.....

But my flex fuel is back on now so i can run whatever, not an issue :) Just have to run low boost with normal pump fuel :( Only 19psi lol

may need to plan this one for winter so its easier on the cars haha..

Yeah plus cooler = more wasps! And if the car bursts into flames we can all sit around the campfire and inhale the E85 goodness!

so the bad news for this week. according to my mechanic my crank shaft is f*cked an my easiest and cheapest way out is an engine swap. honestly i hate my life.

anyone know of any dirt cheap r33 rb25de motors kicking around?

Is the head still good?

If its a DE as you say then any VL bottom end with a light hone, new rings and bearings and your head fitted should do nicely

You need to fit an idler pulley for the belt return and I think that's it

Best bet is to do a search on here as there is a heap of info around just have to find it

As far as legalities go I'm not sure but if original engine number then no capacity increase

Sell car and get a PULSAR VZ-R N1. Iron chef has one up for sale. SR16VE N1 Engine.... stock 200hp, 1090kg and 6.8 secs 0-100

Put on a full exhaust, apexi power FC, splitfire super direct ignition,etc and youll have around 300hp at the flywheel and 0-100 in 5 second territory.

Face palm :no:

f**k that sucks man. wonder how much it'll cost to how much you could sell it for.

N/A engines should be cheap and pretty easy to get ahold of man!

    • 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
