haha, not too bad. I'll get the new car soon hopefully. I've paid the auction fee and everything and I've been looking at auctions for months now, but so far nothing has been good enough. Anyway, I have to sell the Skyline first. I've had a few offers, but turned them down.

Sure will, already got one Dyno Challenge Winner trophy in the cabinet and looking to put some more in there. Should be tuned for over 430awkw by then.

Maybe i missed something, but the website doesn't give an address of where the workshop is?

We like genuine enquiries thats why there is no address. We have had experience with blow-ins just milling around with no real reason to be there but get in the way and ultimately piss people off. We can be contacted either by email or pm here...Paul...DIRTgarage.

so to get a service some1 should email u then wait for a reply for u tell them your secret location?do they need a password?

yes a booking is required for all our work, as is the case for most performance workshops. Our location is no secret to people who genuinely want work done,it is a secret for c0ckheads who dribble sh1t. A password is not required.Paul...DIRTgarage.

u in newcastle yet Cowie??

Hey Chris! yeah mate got back two weeks ago, then saw you're selling your car!? Say it aint so!

Thunderbolt's Way is the road the goes from the Pac Hwy, about 10mins north of Raymond Terrace, and eventually (4hrs later) pops out on the New England Hwy about 10mins south of Armidale. There are a few towns on the way for fuel etc. The views are awesome, the half-day turnaround point is a lookout that is absolutely brilliant. I wish I could find the pics I took last time :D

It's frequented by bike riders, because of the fun you can have without exceeding the speed limit. When I last went it was good scenery, fun corners, fairly regular overtaking points (went past a few trucks/grandmas) and light traffic.

      My BMW 335i

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
