cruising around last night what did i see.. bunch of skylines rolling with me

[JH32]

this sounds like a challenge

I must admit that there do appear to be some non-ricey members of the rb's. Radium, ND4SPD and maybe XRW(j/k).

Anyone who is more interested in stereo's and flashing lights should wear a bright pink armband to show that they belong to the rb's.:lol:

See'ya:burnout:

[FIL]

if you've seen my other car (ie. FIL) it's not exactly rice

mind you... it's still waiting for me to finish a gearbox swap....

now.. lets get our affiliations out.... WASCC, AFARCC, RB's, All4Wheels, Supra club of WA... I'm almost as much of a car club **** as XRW :-)

[RadiuM]

FIL, on the allfours site i saw your going being towed away at motivation? god knows how you did a diff in the supra, i thought toyota made good diffs, or was yours on its way out?

plate idea for the supra.. [FILTTY]

[FIL]

i was told that the supra diff was unbreakable...

that said, there's evidence of some heavy duty abuse on the sub frame (ie. rollbacks) and the way the diff let go is in keeping with that..

oh, and apparently the particular gears i broke, do break a bit...

my car suffers badly from axle tramp at the plex, which is probably the worst thing you can do to a diff... and something I plan to address, along with replacing the subframe and beefing up the diff, before i make a serious return to kwinana....

[RadiuM]

yeah, i have similar problems with axle tramp at the plex.. sounds like the whole car is going to smash to pieces.

on the street and anywhere else is fine... im going to stay away from that deathtrap until some hardcore mods come about and see how she goes then.

bah.. thread hijack.

FIL,

Was that your Supra at Motorvation with the diff dropped out. Me and my mate wondered how you had managed to do that, we thought that they were indestructable too.

Didn't mean to imply you were a rice-boy, just warning others of your rb affiliation, in case they didn't know:lol:

See'ya:burnout:

[FIL]

hehe..... fair enuff :-)

yeah, that was mine... i've taken it to the plex 3 times, including motorvation... done about 20 full noise passes, axle tramped almost every time, no matter how gently i launch... (u practically have to idle off the line to get traction)... at motorvation, did some small burnouts to try to get traction, and on the second launch of the motorkhana... big bang, and had to get towed back to the pits...

thankfully, we got the diff out that night, confirmed that was the problem, and got a new one the next day... was able to drive home that evening...

FIL,

I've done 60+ passes at the plex, and now my twin-plate is farked, you can't have fun in a car without breaking something.

I saw the rubber on the guards and assumed that burnouts had been involved.

See'ya:burnout:

[FIL]

yeah.... thats the way i looked at it too....

burnouts had been rather small, nothing much more than on over enthusiatic launch basically...enuff to dry the tyres...

i think part of the problem is that i know i could launch better if i slipped the clutch, but i refuse to do that because of the wear issues with metal on metal....

[summoner]

hmm.. what clutch u running fil?

i agree with breaking bits.. but all my breaks occur later on when driving on the roads hehe

[FIL]

OS Giken triple, converted to twin, then rebuilt about a month before I got the car....

I only ever find out about these things after the event!!!

I was pulled over last nite for my blue headlights. Got off with a warning, but the officer told me if he wasn't about to go off duty, he would lift the bonnet and find several reasons to give me a sticker.  Must of had a really bad shift. As we were driving off, my son switched on the under car neons. What a lad!

Your a rice Mum! :uh-huh:
