Paul are you all G'd up for sat?

I'll be there but only watching as i know our car would spit a gear box if we push it much harder.

Also whats the Quickest time you have run so far? I'm sure that will get slashed on sat though.

Cheers

gotta instal a tailshaft loop...WTF...these ANDRA tech inspectors are starting to p1ss me off. Not g'd up...absolutely exhausted from prepping car. Quickest time...ive never driven the car so the quickest time will be easy to beat.

The one you told me about at Powercruise

yeah we got dudded...Stace picked up the box yesterday, brought it to the workshop. Guess what we found inside when we split the case.....the most thrashed STANDARD R32 GTR box ive ever seen (besides the one i smashed at the creek)...third gear had nearly every second tooth chipped and second wasnt too crash hot either. NOT HAPPY JAN!

So in true "team twoogle" DIRTgarage style we built ourselves a semi-decent..(if there is such a thing) std box out of the parts we had available. Hell we even have a reverse gear now.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
