Ah, I noticed when I looked into your engine bay in the break, I was like wtf, it's stock & he's caning the shit out of it! Nice strut brace though. :) Were you one of the cars that spun out 3 times in the one corner at the end of the straight??? A grey s13 did it, and there was one more but I can't remember which car it was. The third time was a 360 degree spin over the grass at the esses hahaha

Haha yeah I tried the bling approach without without much success. Just removing the mass rust from the factory brace. I lost it completely once on the first corner during the wet on my first qualifying lap much to the delight of the crowd ( hearing the cheers from them :) ) so I kept on the throttle and kept it sideways out of the grass. My main problem on that corner was that I would come out of the corner and ran out of lock and then dove towards the inside of the corner :( Sat most of the time on the limiter just punishing the tits off of my car but unfortunately my exhaust is so quiet that no one would even know.

Saw steves bumper after one of the qualifying passes ... ouch! (u better be at the next mc round!)

I hope I can get a replacement before the next round, otherwise I cant really drive my car.

I even got pulled over on the way home, fortuneately the cop was ok with it, didnt fine me or sticker the car - he did have a big smile on his face when he saw it though, his comment was 'your obviously not having a great night', he was trying pretty hard not to laugh.

Funny thing is though, probably wont cost me alot more than if the comp was in the dry, last practice I fried $450 worth of tyres :P

haha i had a black silvia get pulled over in front of me on the way home, the cops did a u-turn and chased him

Just a question, Steve when is the next round????? And second, will it be another open comp like this????? Want to get my car out there is all. :D

If you are talking about MC, its on this sunday

If you mean drift, I heard WASCC is planning on doing monthly friday night pratice sessions and was told probably middle of each month - tbc

I was also told they were thinking of doing the next comp during the day on a weekend, probably early next year.

Things are finally looking up for drift in WA, Paul, how come you didnt come and say hello :D you've changed :D

Yes my car was the black/blue 32, but no I don't have a stock zorst... :D:D:( It is just really quiet, 3 inch all the way thru, but it has a big ass muffler on it, which will be going soon (I hope)

Yes I went around a few times... and the dirt... had an absolute f**king ball tho!! :D:)

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
