WA rises slightly to 1/2 track then falls to the end but stuff all in it.

The monster cars have a bit of trouble at the end of the concrete but for the streeters the tracks mint and id say the tracks as good as any in the country and holds its own world wided.Bring some good tyres tho Ash or we can arrange something for you.

if you're driving from east only plan to get 98 octane at port augusta... no other towns have it on the way... although most places have premium... also when i did it 3 months ago nullabor was $1.43 per litre so take cash... u shouldnt need geri cans aslong as u dont use the "ive got a quarter tank... ill make it to the next town" as it may be 3 hrs away...

yer, i was thinking of just using ULP,. but i know what im like. I'll want to give a squirt every so often.

So im gonna buy some jerry cans this week or the next.

I've got some ok tyres, i'll be using them as i dont have a 25 gearbox yet, last thing i wanna do it blow my rb20 one and then be in a amd rush to get another box while im over there.

So only average times, low 12's with some luck :D

  • 2 weeks later...

God-damnit.

my 3000km old GT30 has spat a bearing or two... maybe even a few more (depending how many they have in em)

Gotta get it out and see wtf has happened to it, more importantly why.

So the trip is on hold till its running again, then... im coming. Over ;) No GT30 is going to stop me.

god-damn turbo's. hopefully its a manufacturing fault and not something from my end otherwise its another cartridge i cant afford to be buying :P

mmm, could be heaps of things. Doubt its sealer though. :) My motor man is very much keyed on indeed

maybe a bit of metal from when i blew my cylinders a while back or something, down to a hundred other things. ARGH!

;) but its getting pulled apart as soon as i have it out.

And we see what story it tells... hopefully a warranty one :P

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
