i had to watch my baby drive off into the night :D

shes gone.... GONE!!

oh well... at least i will get to see it being driven how it was meant to be driven and not to some wanker to use as a street cruiser...

Good Luck JT and all the best in the future here in Aust'

Should be good to stir up some good healthy competition.

well... plans so far are for something cheap and nasty i can reg and prac in that i wont worry too much about.

either a cheap s13 with a CA or SR or a ceffy/laurel

unless a nice chaser or markII pops up at the time im ready to bring one in...

all the suspension will be swapped over... there wont be ONE std arm, brace, rod or bar :D

no real performance mods other than exhaust, pod and boost.

then once i start getting better... i'll bring something real pretty in :)

Nark,

Sorry to hear mate.......Guess I was one of the lucky ones (with Krzysiu) who actually had a ride in this beast :D

Oh well....stash the funds somewhere it'll grow and spend the spoils on the next import!

yeah id love that but theyre not easy to find or to find panel parts for... thats the main attraction (even tho i hate them and think theyre ugly) to silvias... parts are cheap and abundant and i dont care if i hit it into a wall... theres no point me getting a nice car again while im learning to drift.

chasers and stuff come later when i have less chance of slamming it into a wall :D

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
