That sounds awesome Jess. Why was none of this stuff done in this area when i had my skyline... I don't know if i will enter though as I am still running in the new motor (it's actually a new car turbo Forester) but will be coming out for a look for sure.

Awesome hope you come to spectate at least....but you can enter any car really cause its all about skill not horsepower!!!

I dont know why!!!Probably didnt think it would take off I guess but went the Victorian one (DECA) and its so much fun and go again in august....

It seriously isnt that stressful on the cars and a massive social event!!

Do you guys know of any other accomodation around the place???

I think we will be putting up a official thread in your section as have to get ACT against NSW for a bit of fun, trash talk lol ;) Spread the word anyone is welcome and post interest in our section if you like!!!!

WOW!

you bought 2 cars off michael.

trust me when i say that your farm isnt the only one this ute has been thrashed on, and that

the tree stump you hit also isnt the first one to meet the front of this car!

My newest battlescar on the ute haha

First scar was the rust and axe/tree limb damage (when we were fixing the clutch we through it would be fun to take an axe to it, it was indeed fun) then 2 mates of mine thought it would be even better to try body denting it, they used a tree branch 3m up to jump. That was funny to watch, not to experience.

Next was back before it had started raining and the paddocks were completly dry so sliding around would make massive clouds of dust that looked like crazy tornadoes, anyway i continued sliding after going a bit crazy and could not see more than 2m in front, unexpectedly I ran into a tree stump. Took out the front bar, light, bonnet latch and radiator but luckily we had an old fairlane lying around so was just a matter of swapping parts over ;)

And the newest one is the windscreen, the car wouldn't start a few days ago and was stuck in a ditch, so i was trying to dig it out in the rain, after a few minutes i cracked a shit and smashed the windscreen in with the shovel and here it is today:

nice and slippery :)

haha yea i've given him a fair bit of money, another sad fact, i've crashed both the cars i bought from michael :X

:dry: i know about the other crash, the broken radiator in the tray when i bought it was a bit of a giveaway, that and he told me. Only thing that shat me off was the dodge job he did on the clutch, he had only screwed one of the bolts on the flywheel in with the rest being barely finger tight...

Well I just paid the final instalment for my new set of wheels being imported from J Land. I am going through Alan @ nextmod (online based Canberra business that actually has decent prices unlike everyone else). So far everything has been going very well, great communication and is able to get answers from his contacts in Japan almost straight away. This is my first dealing with him but if all goes smoothly there will certainly be repeat business based on his prices, range of products and effort/communication. :D

Anyways here is a few pics of the new wheels Limited Edition Gunmetal Grey 18" TE37's ;)

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
