Trailers, mmm I think we will build one, see exact costing and go from there. I only want a very very basic one. No tyre rack etc. Will be around end of the year I reckon before we look at building on

New front bar and lights going on after some numbskull backed into the GTR in Woolies carpark on Sunday arvo.

Not like he hit it real hard, just pushed the whole car nearly a meter backwards, while it was parked, unattended, with the park brake on and stuff...

Ouch :)

Doesnt really look like much at all actually.

Till ya get the bar cover off and see all the little bits that add up.

The rio is creased and bent on both sides, lh headlight has been pushed sideways into the indicator breaking the mounting lug, the rio mounts are bent and will need to be straightened...

Its been in the bodyworks today so they can do a quote and send off to my insurance company (Thumbs up to Shannons and Cooee Bodyworks)

I think the guy who did it will be a bit surprised when he gets the bill from them as he doesnt have insurance and I dont think he knows exactly what it was he backed into.

Just before you get all suicidal check all your breather plumbing and PCV valve to make sure your not building up to much crankcase pressure. A turbo seal is like a piston ring, so not a lot should go wrong in such a short time, but even a new seal will leak if there is to much backpressure in the bearing cavity so that the oil can't drain out. :D

Just a thought.

Garrett 3071, Hks version is 28-35 and about $2k more, http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/category12_1.htm

The 3071r on here are bolt-on and some guys on SAU are making around 275rwkw. As for injectors there’s not a lot out there for neo's but Ben at SPG will be able to get them for you.

Got our wagon back last Friday and took it for a drive Saturday to blow the cob webs out after 2 months, believe me they are all gone!!! 'Vi-pec plug & play' works a treat with auto. My vote for Pete Lockett at Fuel Tech Automotive, Launceston.

Getting everything together to finish my car off ready to be tuned as i dont want it to be off the road for 4 years :)

Car currently sits with the following set up:

RB20DET

TD-06 20g L2

HKS 264 cams

Tomei 555 injectors

GK Tech cam gears

HYBRID GT FMIC with GReddy hotpipe

Just Jap oil cooler and relocation kit

APEXI power intake

Thanks to BMS i have coils, Z32 and coil cooler on the way, a decat pipe thanks to the guys from SPG and a new extinguisher supplied by Hamish @ REVOLUTION.

Once fitted (next week hopefully) the car will be ready for rego/tuning so i can start driving it again.

      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.
