let me know if you do sell Anthony. My will be up for sale within in the next 6months and i will be looking for a new 34 (or possibly 32) in pristine condition.

Wont get a cleaner 34 than Ants :P

exactly! made mine look like a rust bucket

Damn financial factors!!! We are all buying houses it seems lately :P Me, Ant, Jarrad, Martin etc... Suckers i tell ya!

Newcastle thread fell off the planet? :P

Get your stickers yet Martin? I think Carmen got a pic of you running too!

Nah no stickers yet

Pic would be good to see

I need someone to edit a vid for me as well as I forgot to turn off camera and have 5 mins of unwanted footage

Destroyed tailshaft on the third run. Launched hard and when I grabbed second rear uni let go big time

let me know if you do sell Anthony. I may possible be interested in a few months depending on finacial factors (buying a house)

Yea no problem mate, im in no rush at this stage (unless i lose my job, which is a possability atm ha) more than likely be in the first half of next year if its going to happen.

Yea will see how the track day goes, but either way not sure if it will make a difference, with me getting into motorbikes and buying a house, I just dont get the time to drive the car as much as i should, and if i was going to build it for the track, its just too risky being such an expensive car that is uninsured when on there if you know what i mean, if i really like it may look at replacing it with a cheaper car that i can feel better about tracking etc..

thoughts at this stage are getting something good everyday and abit of fun (this is selling both the gtr and passat), like bmw m3 sedan or maybe c63 amg (funds permitting...) could take these to the shops, on cruises and to the track and perform quite well at all of them.

or just selling the gtr and getting something like a caterham super 7 that i can use on weekends, trackdays and hillclimbs... and a nice italian superbike to go along with it haha...

and chookie is buying an engagement ring!

all saving hard! :P

Ant yiur not selling shit :P

wheres the hill climb mat? how much?

Hahahahaha :P

2nd November at Ringwood, costs bugger all so just be there!

Nah no stickers yet

Yeah ill have to post them up for you soon! Or ill get Carmen to Bookface them for you!

I heard you killed it, meant to ask what happened lol

Hi guys! i'm just wondering if anyone has a standard turbo exhaust manifold for an r34 rb25?

Yep i do.

Yeah but you get some Euro junk and you are back to square one, you will be too much of a pussy to track it :P kidden.....

Maybe a cheaper track beast and bike is the go :) Caterham would be insane fun!

haha thats a challenge matt, if i get one of the above will see who can post the best time... i would probably need slicks but haha.

the idea of a euro car is there isnt much need to modify it (to a great extent), although i love modifying cars, its very expensive and can end badly or with a car that can be too impractical for me to use everyday etc.. and as saying, a weekend car for me atm just isnt getting enough use, but a cheaper track/weekend car could be an option, but im also getting over 3 regos and insurances ha...

yea a caterham would be uneral, imagine that thing on putty, would be interested to see if i was held up or struggle to keep up against you guys in one of them there ha.

Lol sounds awesome! By next year ill start saving towards proper rims and tyres and some aero work and start being more that just a throttle happy bogan :P Plan to hit the track as often as i can afford too hehe

Yeah i know you say that, but after being surrounded by Euro cars with Dad and business partners etc and they are an epic pain in the ass, expensive to maintain and not as reliable as you would hope! The newer models are epic though to drive etc...

Lol its like a superbike on 4 wheels! Its Martins hillclimb car with street rego :P I think you would do 2 laps of Putty to our one! You can wave when you go past and i am upside down in a tree though :action-smiley-069:

sounds good mat! let me know when you do events. I might be keen :)

Ill try remember! Still not 100% confident ill make it as ill likely break something at the track day :P

fair points, and yea the aim would be to go for the newer ones... but it is alot of money, and would only buy one if it was a pretty good daily (meaning i would need a sedan) unless i find a nice RS6 station wagon for a good price... big car but a twin turbo v10 with over 500hp would keep me pretty happy haha...

will see what happen in the future anyways... gota sort out my finances and see whats possible.

Yeah get the main things sorted then decide, in saying that i am pretty sure you have had your heart set on one for a while and if that is the case it doesnt matter who says what, you arent going to change your mind :P

hey guys. been a while since ive been on, any chance there is going to be a meet in the next few weeks. due to lose my lisence for 3 months soon so i want to go out with a decent cruise before 3 long months of walking.

Yea thats it, will see how things go.

Would be very hard to say goodbye to big bird but!

You will still see it from the other side of the planet its that bright :P

    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - there is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
    • no one recommending speedtek gearsets?   i'm in the same boat as Cosline but rwd, I am holding boost back in third to 600nm at the hubs to save the gear as i make nearly 750nm at the hubs on a mainline
