  1. Always seems like the right thing to do at the time..... but most of us seem to regret it later on by many peoples posts. I certainly do with the much modded GTS-4 out of all the cars I have sold including my Merc CLK AMG55, 996 Turbo Porsche, Bmw 6, but I have kept my most loved, 1969 AMC Javelin and 82 Mits Starion I have passed on to my son recently for his teen son. Will be keeping the Audi TTRS for a while though!
  2. Find my old R32 GTS-4 "TURB06" I put $50K+ into it - Although a RB20 it also had RB26 possibilities as per import VIN - lost track of it 15 years ago after selling for $11K in perfect condition... 😞 😞
  3. Sounds just like my RB20 that I eventually found the problem to. Unfortunately had to pull the engine and found that the back of the oil pump cover plate inside the engine had come loose somehow?? Hope that is not your problem.... Before you ask I dont remember what the oil pressure was reading at the time sorry.
  4. Just got a Password update so thought I would update my info. Now live in NE Vic. Along the Hume Weir and the roads are twisty and pretty good now that the potholes are mostly repaired. So having fun in the Audi TTRS where possible. Traded up from a Black 2.0ltr TT M6T to a Black 2.5 Ltr M6T AWD a few years ago. Awesome weapon and no cops look at me unlike the Skyline getting pulled over for license checks all the time! LOL. BTW I covered that exposed POD just in case of Plod, and does not suck hot air which is better for the 3 second tune.

  8. Did not see a GOR run mentioned anytime during 2016 , was there one late 2015 or is that run off the agenda for some reason? I am not rejoining so would that be a problem anyway as I remember we used to do Members only and Open runs also.

  16. Not sure why I was looking happy - a lot of work to do yet! Must have been at least the cams were back in.
  17. Happy to have that custom DOHC head and cams back on the metal head gasket and all torqued up with the custom Cam Gears aligned. Still lots to do yet. Glad I am not counting up the costs!
  18. If you are going to work extensively on an engine (and your old -lol) you need one of these aluminium four folding segment ladders which make it a lot easier to lay on while you do what needs to be done. Could not have done these massive mods without it.
  19. Notice the intake AirBox is not standard with a much larger outlet with the Mass Airflow Meter mounted in the side of it. This was originally done to balance out the fuel flow for the Mazda RX7 Fuel Injectors and worked perfectly to be able to drive to be Dyno tuned when the whole system was optimised by DR. Drift. Does not show the extended entrance to the AirBox that ducted cold air via much larger piping from under front bumper opening on passenger side. AirBox was fitted with High performance foam filter.
  20. Oil Filter relocated into front airbox area for extra cooling and ease of access to replace. Note aluminium plate over FMIC to stop over run of air so all goes through FMIC. Also added boxing all round for same reason. Keep thinking....
  21. Drivers side FMIC entry with extra Oil cooling radiator with large fan. When completed, encased in box with front opening under bumper bar forcing air down and out though cooler under wheel well if fan not also going.
  22. Shows home mod huge Automatic Trans fluid cooler with extra computer fans for enhanced cooling for Drag strip pre race burnouts or circuit track runs.
