haha I like the social aspect of it. He got a new car and wanted to try it out on some roads so I offered the Cotter. He's idea, so I wouldn't go unless he was. Bank account frozen (no work) so fuel has to be used wisely :P

Just got news from iron chef that my car is on the way to compliance and should be there this week. They are installing new tires and band extender so I can pick up Aus radio.

Sooo close now

Where is pick up?

We should do a cruise in honour of Daniel and his new riiiiiiiiiide.

mine took about two weeks get yourself a permit btw. NSW,ACT.I picked up mine from Melbourne so i didnt know i had to get a permit for NSW,VIC and ACT. Driving back got pulled over in NSW and they were meant to give me a $1200 fine but they let me go. Save yourself the hussle and get all permits.

Yeah right now I have paid about $13,500
Iron Chef quoted about $16,500 landed and complied.
So his guess is around $3000

They are fitting the cheapest possible tires for me because I won't be keeping the rims.
Also a radio band extender so I can pickup aus radio stations.

Room. I has none.

I think I'm going to investigate a storage unit for 4 months or so. Not an expense I need right now, but if it's not long term at least I won't be forking out for one indefinitely.

Storage, at least theres a bit of choice these days,

Cant build a shed where you are.

Was thinking the Bond roll bar thats FIA approved and bolt in might go well in the 32.

I can take it out for road use.

1/2 cage is probly the way to go.

Whaddayareckon?

$1015.00 six point roll cage with diagonal.... $670.00 1/2 cage with
diagonal
thanks 02 45879672

Hi, im wondering if you make the removable roll bar/cage for R32 Skyline.
If so, what are the options and cost.
thanks, Mike.

Speaking of good locations .... here's a trip (with stages) I hope to be doing in the next few months if things go my way .. if they don't go my way I'll stick to going to doing a lap around the ACT, to Civic for a coffee then home :closedeyes:

What sort of time frame do you expect to do this over?

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
