Anyone have any recommendations for where to buy reasonably priced helmets for this. Never done a motorsport thing and have no idea where to look.

You can get a cheap one from here. https://www.amxsuperstores.com.au/

Just make sure it meets one of these regulations.

Safety helmet - being those with the following markings:
i. AS1698 Australian Standard
ii. Snell SA95, M90, SA95, SA2000 USA Standard
iii. SFI Spec 31.1, 31.2, 31.1A. 31.2A USA Standard
iv. E22 (with 03, 04 or 05 amendments) European Standard
v. BS 6658-85 Type A and A/FR (including amendments) British Standard

Thank you!!

As for helping out, I'm going to try get some photos (and maybe a little video) throughout the day, depending on home much downtime I get. (I'm the guy that runs this page https://www.facebook.com/jdmmelb/)

Feel free to attach as many cameras as you want to my 35 ?

Not sure if same, but pretty sure I've seen you at Winton some years back? I think it was only just converted to v8 back then...

I think that was when he had a cool V8 in it.

Ben I hope you have some mufflers on that thing as we do have noise restrictions in the supp regs.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
