no. Just like everyone else you need to earn it.......unless I win 5M dorras then I help you if you are a good boy

I do earn it, I just have other things I need to pay for first :(

Dam brakes. To many options, can't figure out what i want to get.

R33 brakes bolt straight on.

Bigger ones are probably only a bit more expensive if i just get fronts.

But i might want to get even bigger ones later, in that case the 33 brakes would be easier to move on.

Or i could go straight to even bigger ones but i'd need to get 18's...

In which case do i get TE37s again or something else.

Argh decisions.

what are you on about Pete?

Your 17in TE37's will have more than enough room for a big brake kit

Also new big brake kits cost a lot more than R33 GTR Brembos Pete

40 minute sessions at wakefield, and my GTR Brembos never smoked... Just sayin! They have become fairly underrated over the last few years. Though I have never paid 1800 bucks for them. My first set of fronts cost 800 with dba 5000 rotors and my full set cost 1300 with dba 5000 front rotors.

Some between 4 and now Mel :(

Now I'm going to get up and drive to Beacmere to meet a client I know and help them put all their work on a cloud

I'm actually really looking forward to this :)

Have you moved completely to xero in house?

Front D2 kit is about ~2K,

R33 all round is 1800 bucks by the time you get them rebuilt etc

Get real brakes. D2 are rubbish.

Do it once, do it right. Cheaper in the long run Pete.

If R33 Brembos bolt straight on, that means all Z32 kits will bolt straight on.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
