Yep I will be back late tomorrow night...

The training has been pretty cool... the funny thing is though is that the training is for a specific piece of equipment that we only have in Melbourne and Sydney.

So basically I do the training for the equipment then go back to Perth and never use it :(

Yeah for sure... Free trip.... Free hotel ..... A Bit of a wander around a new city.... A week off work ( Well training is a bit of a holiday :( )

Hehe I have only seen Mel when she's drunk and when she's hung over ... Both ways she is funny :P

Ken, Just incase you needed some advice and wanted to talk to me:p

I should be sorted by early next week:D

The quick engine out and back in on the R has got bigger than ben hur.

The Albany w/end competition could be in jeopardy atm.

Bugga !!

Cheers

Nope, bailed the car to CRed due to a lack of time and Lumpy owes me a favour.

Pulled the engine out and has too much blowby.

Am sourcing the forgies , metal h/gasket etc as we speak. I think this thing is gonna be a rocket ship when finished and will look cool with the blue rocker , polished trust pipes yada yada..

Cheers

Ken

Ken, It would suck if your not going, but we will anyway, we have other accomodation already booked:D

No will still go but may have to find a backup plan if the engine is not back in time. Has to be machined etc , assembled and run in.

Can see me running it in by driving to Albany.

Lumpy won't let me have the Autronics on till the engines bedded.

Untrust worthy bastard.:(

Cheers

All it takes is pre planning .... just work out how long you will be gone then work out how much higher than 100ppd you need to not post in the uk and have the average to drop to the 100ppd and then get to that point before you go :(

I hope that made sense.... I am now hell tired and am going to bed... it is 1.15 and I will have to be up around 7.00am... so thats just about it for me.....

I will chat with you again on Monday hopefully :P

Bye bye

Mmm, sounds good Ken. Blowby from ring-lands? A bit of money to spend, but it should be able to withstand the extra boost from the 581's:D

Yea , I had my suspicions when it popped the dipstick out once.

It's not like I thrash it around a race track or nuthin...

Cheers

Ken

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
