good idea ALWAYS

i shall be bringing some zub to whack on the bbq. it's a family specialty that we've had for a long time. anyway if you boys want some of my zub, just ask me on the day.

from what i hear there wont be enough of your zub to feed a small dog let alone a whole group...

Excellent, Paul. All the best for that 10!

Mark and Richard, Lets leave the zubs where they belong. :cheers:

I will be the tall, dark and ugly guy in the red Ferrari F1 cap fiddling with a couple of Konica cameras :)

Hey Paul, how much more power is making now than when it saw the strip last time??? 440kw is quite impressive :cheers: what turbo's is that thing of yours running again???

certainly is shaping up to be a great day.... i am going to bring some shity tyres for my first few runs as i can see a few fourth gear burnouts happening :)

umm. ahem.

works out around 500rwkw....shite i hope i can keep it off the walls (said whilst touching wood)

I was chatting to 4 door last week and he mentioned that UREADY and there workshop is all geed up to smash you in a race though I laughed to myself as I knew you didn't know anything about it

I don't think he'll be at drag day but we'd better organise a street meet he can attend so we can organise this race :P

I'll hold all bets :rofl:

Hey guys, a couple of quick things.

We will have a driver briefing at 9:45 so I hope you will be all signed on and ready to well before then.

Yes there will be a bbq as no shops open.

No alcohol allowed at all.

we will have drinks also.

I'll hold off getting the NOS installed then.....as i dont want to be accused of being unfair.

mmm I don't know, as its your little low mounts against a high mount beast (UREADY has a big single turbo now)

Having people talking behind your back is one of the highest forms of flattery.

Some people race to beat other's.....we race to beat ourselves and the clock....

why is everyone out to beat us?....we are a soft target...we are no prize for bragging rights.....go after some real game!

Paul if you don't run a 10 now I will shoot you. Only joking, I will dis own you, bad luck has run out, time to do it. No pressure.

If not you should buy a zed and come over to the cardigan brigade.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
