Had my white GTR dynoed by Shaun yesterday. He got it up the drive no problem. It ran 249.8 rwkW, 18 kW more than my grey GTR! Now I have to decide which car I should take (unless the white one sells before then).

I'm in.

Nozilla - Direct Deposit into my bank account, once the money appears, it will be displayed in the first post and this list will be brought on the day. The order will be determined by who ever deposits first, if you dont like the order your in, you can change it further down.

Ill start to oraganise the details and instructions on where to deposit the $5 dollars by this Friday, this should give enough time (2 weeks) to organise it.

If you dont like waiting that much, you can look at the position your in. Ill try and put a time against your name so you can then rock up 10 mins before your run.

But like Cubes said, I have the most fun watching other cars cause you've probably seen your car on there heaps of times before.

Hopefully you can get it sorted mate.

Yeah I'm good thanks mate. Bloody busy these days. I'm guessing you guys would be too! How's Cubes junior going? :D

I've just finished sorting a bunch of stuff out myself - only minor. Need to get the car onto the dyno for a quick check before any dyno shootouts. I finally tracked down a boost leak... well it became very obvious when the only remaining OEM rubber IC 90' bend blew completely in half!

A quick hose (silicon 90' bend) replacement became a small 2 month long upgrade session... mostly cosmetic and handling stuff. Keen to upgrade to a bigger turbo in the next 6 or so months.

sent you my deposit today

One thing, I have never been to a dyno day where you get no cars, they always show up, there will be plenty there I reckon

Might be hard for some people to send deposits thats all, never had to pay a deposit on any dyno day that I have been to

Usually just a list of interested people is all thats needed, then pay when you get there and that gives you your running order

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
