So much happening! :D Very exciting stuff, I've done a little to mine but I'll post that over in my thread because there is a fair few pics!

Bushy: Really excited to see you're making some awesome progress; Can't wait to see you on the track again!

Brain: Loving the flares, they don't look too bad even in black. Are you going to colour code them?

Young: That is one Sexy 31, love it! Wheels are mad and boss fitment!

That 31 is porn,

Yeah it is a little bit lower then before I think it may be the angle im taking the pics on as well, I have around 100-110mm clearance on the front bar.

I'll take some better pics when i get it out of the garge.

I think I may just keep them black for now, I'm not 100% sure yet

Slight correction to my last post...I meant to say cam seals were replaced, not crankshaft seals hah. Doesn't look like I can edit the post.

Yep, after 20 Mins you're committed!

That thing better get low ^^ . Ok im bored so i shall waffle , blue snotter is very close to rego , just need to pull my finger out and finish off a few small things . After a fail weekend last weekend where i missed out on the charity ride day over mis communication with people , i finally have my other hq ready for the track again and 28 is back in full swing after the issues in Melbourne . How did everyone go last weekend at the track day? Im Devo i didn't make it :(

Doing some wheel bearing moves on the 31

Also need to redo the passenger side front brake hard line flare, anyone know where you get the hard line brake nuts from? and if a supercheap style flare tool can do the correct flare?

few new pics of mine (still in the garage) after getting another pair of flares, should have them on & out of the garage by next week.

this is starting to grow on me. Look forward to seeing it finished for next Sunday....

Yeah im good mate thanks , basically , i ran out of talent . I was playing with tyre pressures and a couple other things with the car and came through the esses too hard , got sideways , the clutch wouldn't dis engage properly and bam! . Only damaged the nose cone and front guard luckily (and bonnet and door) . My bad :s

I'm struggling highly for motivation at the moment.

Also for the first time in about 3 outings I actually jacked my car up to check it and found some epic inner wheel damage from the last prac day. My spotter kept edging me deeper and deeper to turn 1 untill I broke it. Also gave the chassis a good knock from another ripple strip adventure. Otherwise it's all sweet and ready to go for round 3.

I have several aspects to revamp on the. Car but can't seem to get into it. Any one got a way to get yourself motivated?

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
