The regs said 95db limit, but they didn't have anything to test it. There were a couple of cars running screamers and I'm sure they would have been at least 110db LOL. You'd fit in fine ;P

Let me know when the next decent event is on and ill try make it down ;)

There is an Esses Descent planned on the 30th March but not 100% sure if it will go ahead.

Hillclimb on Mountain Straight on 31st August, Supersprint on Conrod on 2nd November and again the 29th November as well as a Hillclimb on Mountain Straight again on the 30th November.

Yea man, the Supersprints are just Conrod so you could just do one of those days. But I will insist that you do a hill climb as well man, would love to hear your car hitting gate all the way up the mountain :D

If they let me that is :P Would be keen to give it a crack :yes: I was pretty jelly once i knew you were there!

Well, when people say that Jim Berry likes to talk, they don't lie :P . I was on the phone to him for about an hour and a half total today, but I learnt a lot (and a lot passed right through one ear and out the other too! haha). I have now ordered a custom clutch and new flywheel from Jim himself. It is almost the same as what Mat (34GeeTeeTee) is running, a 6 puk solid single plate, except with 5000 clamp pressure. It is a bit overkill for my car currently but I am hoping that I will never have to replace it :) . Jim said he would get a start on it and give me a call back in a couple of days, so hopefully I'll get it sometime next week maybe then I can figure out exactly when I will be able to get help fitting it :P

Juts got a call from Jim to say he is sending the clutch/flywheel ^_^

Wow, he musnt of had too many phone calls today :ph34r:

(If he reads this i hope he laughs lol)...

Yeeep. Haha. Oh well, now I have some spare seals I guess :P

I know we had trouble getting the rear main seal right on mine, check it over and make sure it is 100% before fitting :yes:

He mentioned having trouble with the rear main, I'll line it before removing the old one and make sure it all looks right :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
