Had a great day on Saturday. Arrived with two mates at 8:15am after narrowly avoiding the defect station around lake george!

My friend Andrew that was due to run his lj on the dyno at 10am got thrown on the thing at 8:30am so i was stoked for leaving as early as i did. He had some problems with the BOV opening when it shouldn't and leaking all manifold pressure after 15psi and peaking his power @ 448hp :D Not great considering his last years' performance of 484. As it turns out, he made the final 4 and upon running this morning, made 520hp and is stoked at being the 4th toughest pump fueled car there.

Immediatley after him was a black VK (?) with plates RAPID8. It is a twin turbo v8 that looked reasonably unnassuming up till the point when it spun up 1206hp first go!!! ON PUMP FUEL!!!

The crowd lost it and cheered till he ran it again and ran a 1097hp without revving it out!!! AWESOME! The Gold TT V8 VK won with 1300+ this morning after both cars were emptied of there fuel tanks, tilt trayed to the servo, filled from the same pump with optimax and tilt trayed back to the dyno cell! Intense. It almost came to fisty-cuffs when the suggestion was made that the Gold car was running the bottle but it was all sorted in the end.

HEAPS of girls with their titties out, (Hey, it was pier pressure that made me cheer them on!) and loads of nice cars.

Great day, Fridays must blow cos i had a fantastic time topped off with a trip to Fyshwick (sp) to top up the DVD pr0n supply :())

Here

This phot was taken outside Autotech Services Collie Street, Fyshwick,ACT

Its a member of Syndicate Motorsports, which is an ACT car club.......Maybe this guy just bough it??

Hmm, I"ll be quiet now. :)

I talked to the guy at the Summernats SAU get together. He mainly lives in Canberra but also lives in WA. He works in Canberra.

Bullet holes are definitly from chillin in da Canberra gheto, in particular Franklin St. Manuka and Lonsdale St. Braddon. Pretty tough hoods! :lol:

I remember seeing a while ago a news article claiming Richardson to be the bad ass gheto of the ACT. The cops bilitzed it for ages! Lock your doors driving through or you'll get jacked for your ride and your The land of goat sphincter rings chain!

Those Southsieed boys are real G'd up gangstas! They claim the front of the Hyperdome as there turf! :lol:

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
