yea in Canberra just now, I was entering an intersection beside a white VE SS ute dumped on 20`s with no exhaust, the light went green and he just stomped on it sideways around the corner and fish tailing all over the place

Typical douche I'm talking about.

Seriously what is it with average falcon and commodore drivers going 'oh he has a skyline, he MUST be a drifter!! This'll impress him!!' And kicking the arse out? And if it's wet the problem is 100x worse.

I used to just laugh when I'd encounter above mentioned twats

They'd speed up to site beside me and either free rev it next to me or quickly on and of stab the throttle to do a rolling bunny hop I guess you'd call it to try and show me who's boss lol

The fact my car was as loud if not louder than most worked 5.7 or 6 litre's I'd be a) worried about just my audible noise stabbing it in the city and b) when it rails 23 psi through a 2 inch stainless screamer pipe on top of that isn't to inconspicuous lol

End of the day they would be staring trying to sus out what was "wrong" with the car at the lights once we stopped with the twin plate rattling away and the external fuel system whirring away lol never got sick of the puzzled looks

I love it when a 20 year old nissan gets down the main straight at eastern creek overtaking a BMW v10 M5,

Or when you round up a "fully worked cuzzy bro" HSV GTS 325 around the corners, and the driver sheepishly waves you past.

Then the drive back through the paddock, with the commo drives trying to figure out your car while the clutches in the diff make like the rear end is going to fall out! Lol.

And that's why I love the track. The road, I couldn't give a toss about.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
