Should've asked him today - saw him with a bunch of guys at Ikea in Moore Park. Out of all places in the world you wouldn't expect to bump into him at a small cafe inside Ikea? LOL.

Ikea: It's all about the Swedish Meatballs, baby...

You should have said Hello, I don't bite - well, not normally... :cheers:

Hows the rebuild going mario.

Not good. ANDRA just ****ed us - again.

It appears that the engine parts we have just had made have been rendered useless - because ANDRA made us a promise that they couldn't (or never intended to) keep.

It appears that they intend on banning all leaded race fuels as of June this year, so we went through all the hassle of getting the ELF124 sorted, new engine internals designed, only to be told that we probably won't be allowed to use it...

So, no idea what is happening now. Welcome to drag racing back in the '50's...

Mario.

Mario you are a TOOL its not ANDRA it's the goverment just like leaded fuel at the servo

You are the only tool here - for talking about shit you have no understanding of.

Were you there when the agreement was made?

Were you there when the payment was made?

Were you a party to the discussion for the santioning of the fuel?

ANDRA made promises (and also charged people) to sanction this fuel. They took money and made promises that they couldn't (or didn't intend) on keeping.

ANDRA is quite adept at laying the blame at someone elses feet (in this case, Environment Australia) but the fact remains - they knew what the hell they were doing, they knew what they were promising was not possible - yet they misled people (like us) into paying them what amounted to extortion in order to sanction a fuel for use that they knew wouldn't be worth shit in a little over 6 months.

In future, keep your retarded opinions to yourself - twat.

Mario.

GTR700 is using Motec M800 Ecu with every addon possable.

GTR700 is also having traction problems which is there current limiting factor, The 8.2 sec run was done at 66% of max power so there is still alot more left to go.

    • 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
