Police training is for Police yes. One week training and quite good. Although as some of you know Police are happy to give you advice and a lot firmer and costly than Ian Luff.

The idea is to have your fun and testing at the track. On the road you can still have fun testing the handling and braking and accelerate up to the speed limit that is.

Unfortunately we had a very very bad customer service experience from the "Relationship" manager of Ian Luff's whilst we have been researching into discounts for this.

I don't want to get into it because her attitude has both myself and Christian absolutely fuming..

"Again, I am concerned about the knee jerk reaction by your members to only start thinking about driver training the day or two before a funeral where three people were killed in an accident involving a Skyline."

that is only a small snipet of the conversation :D a surprising and rather insensitive comment i would have thought.

needless to say, with attitudes like that, they are not top on the list..

Yeah, had you guys read the rest of the emails that went back and forth, you wouldn't be going to Ian Luff either. Not because Ian Luff is a bad instructor, but anybody that hires a 'Relationship Manager' like this woman can't have all their lights on.

Thanks for the invite Greg,

but I was hoping to take my daily driver on some Stage1/2 advanced driving days, I'm not really interested in taking it out to lap Oran Park at this stage.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
