@mlr you coming in your whooshy pssh sututu machine?

I worked it out, if I get up at 5:15am  (which I do most days), get the car out the door by 5:30am by playing tetris then be at Wilberforce by 6:30am.

At that point if my car hasn't broken down, or been defected then will cruise with @PLYNX to whereever 

@niZmO_Man you coming Mr Uber?

Timings and start point

If work isn't a issue, I'll tell the Mrs that I need to do a "work thing"

My back is still pretty sore though, running stiff suspension, a fixed bucket seat with zero give, semi slicks still is hard to offset the adrenaline rush and GATE :D

I think having GATE makes the drive more enjoyable.

"Disclaimer: We all did the speed limit because we are responsible adults."

When did this happen ? I didn't get the memo  . . . I think !!!! 

And as to the speed limit, we had too cause of the fear instilled in us by the amount of dead kangaroos/wombats/possums on the road.

On that did any of you guys spot the Kangaroo standing on the side of the road, about to cross, near the armor guard rail as we crossed the bridge on the second windy section ? ? 

Scared the poop out of me ! ! !

 Notice the blue R34GTR that waved to us as we were heading back out of Singleton at around 10am ?

Anyone know who that was ?

Yeah I did notice, I was too busy changing playlists on Spotify and couldn't' wave back fast enough

The only downside of a dedicated track car, I cant do these street runs with you guys :(

Would of loved to take my 32 up Macquarie pass with you guys a few weeks back, its like in my back yard lol.
Got a good video somewhere of a 5 minute run (no traffic at all) up the pass in my old XT forester.

 

I'm busy this weekend :(
Trying to get dyno time to dial up a customer's car, then tile shopping again LOL

Oh yeah, let's see how I go, I am craving a track day as well :)

Went (yet again) very early Saturday morning and stopped for breakfast at the Grey Gums caff for some breakfast.

Funny thing happened, a new black BMW M2 pulled up and I thought that looks a bit different so i took a sneaky look at it while the owner was in side.

I have to say it was a very nice bit of kit and noticed that it was a manual, that is a proper manual not a flappy paddle gearbox.

The owner came out and I complemented him on his car and asked him what year model it was and he said it was this years model.

He wasn't very talkative and said he had to go and left.

I followed him out and I can confirm it was bloody fast.

I'm thinking someones been test driving a new model

I coming over to the dark side !

Yes Yes I can see the dark side ! 

. . . . . . holy S%it  . . .Ive just looked up the price of the new BMW M2 CS coming out mid this year . . . its nearly $140K . . . 

Hmmm . . . maybe . . . . . NOT !

    • 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.
