Still selling?

I would rather sleep in my own home getting the bus than renting and still paying off my car or even better - picking up these 15 year olds telling them to be quite as they walk down the hallway so they don't wake mum and dad Lucky enough to have both the house and the car but we all have to start some where... If i had say 100k and was in the dilemma of another house or a R35 GTR I can say without doubt the head waould say car but the heart says house. Loosing money on a car is fact of life which we all go through but I'm starting to get over it very quickly.

Hello all!! It has being sometime now since I have been on here, work has being crazy busy, being overseas and all the rest plus the 32 has not seen the black stuff for over a year now : ( Good to be home!! (SAU) What's been happening and going on in the last year and a half?? Well it's time to get the old girl back onto the road and get it out breathing again. I was taken off the road last year after the knobs down at Noble park (riots) I was unfairly targeted in Doncaster coming out of a servo but hey, that's history now. Does anyone know the where abouts of where I may be able to get a stock 32 (gts-t) airbox?? I will buy one if need be, but hoping someone on here may have one I can borrow/rent etc.. I'm in the east - north east suburbs. I have fun the job ahead of re-registering my car as I went O/S shortly after the defect notice and had to unregister it. I just organised my unregistered permit and I have butterflys in my stomach in anticipation of having it. Well any how's it is good to be back and after having a quick glance around it feels not that long ago.. Juzey.

Just out of interest, does anyone know or be able to recommend where to get a brace to fix a camera to the rear window or parcel shelf or the like? Extremely tempted to get out on this day!!

Not suggesting that you will have the same run of luck as me, but there are 101 differant problems you could encouter. - If anyone is going and wants a co-pilot for the day for the trip up and back, let me know I'd be interested in comming up. Currently getting some work down and would prefer not to drive there. If so then just PM me.

Mat, You will have a ball. Firstly, I wouldn't take jerry can with you, there is a Bp that sells ultimate about 10 mins south of there. Forget the towns name. Secondly, I would take some oil, coolant, screw drivers, a socket set and possibly some pipe clamps. (pipe clamps from experience) Thirdly, if you can I would tow your car there. For the sake of hiring a car trailer for $50 - $100 for 24 hours it's much cheaper than a tow back to Melbourne! If I was going to Sandown or Calder I would just drive but Winton. Your call but, from my position once bitten, twice shy. I went up there in October last year, let me say f**king awesome day out! Don't mean to scare or put doubt in your mind but heres what happend when I went. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...1&hl=winton I may even come back up there my self. Go crazy or be conservative, either way you will love it and be hanging for the next one! Cheers.

My top grade rims *cough were manufactured by Rossa. Never herd of them my self. As I said in my post, I wanted to change all four rims to stockies but could'nt remove the front two. Still wouldn't have expected what happend to happen, but can't cry over spilt milk as they say.... I reckon I went around that track 20 times and grinned like a little boy on Cristmas eve on every one of them. Just loved it.

Just a note for anyone here, if you know how to convert dvd into mpeg format then PM me and when I get it (the footage) and I'll upload it to vid section. As I said in my post, my mate was a passenger at the time and caught it on video, so I'll put the lap leading up to it on. My mate was telling me that two corners leading up to it, the camera was flashing flat battery, almost put it away but continued to record, just after the impact the camera went flat.

Na mate, no spacers. That photo of the 33 is just so uncanny, almost the excact same. Compare the two photos. Still can't balieve it happend. Not pissed off about it, but dissapointed. The positive from the day is that had a mad time, and I never liked those rims anyway, see them all the time on wrx's, lancers, civic's etc. Time for some new ones. To answer someones elses question, to get it on the tow truck was a ball breaker! the hassle to remove the nuts was wicked. Got to say the driver (can't recall his name) from "Benella towing" was a really nice guy, took the time to do every thing with out causing thurther damage, thanks mate!

Hey all, Went up to Winton last Sunday. First track outing and f_cking loved it, before..... I'll give you's a write up later but thought I'd share my unbelievable misfortune with the community...... Cheap and nasty rims, yeah probably. On the car when I bought them. Got new pads fitted on saturday, went to change all four rims to standard 32's but couldn't get the front ones loose. f**king rattle gun did them up so tight so I thought, ok I'll leave them on. I'll give you the write up soon, just at work. Just defending the stupid 'captain obvious' replies that I'm sure will bombard this post. Here goes. This was e email sent to friend, couldn't be bothered re-writting it, so if it reads like you should know me, you now understand. Hello all, As some of you may or not know, I went on a track day at Winton race way Sunday just past. Let me start by saying, it was awesome! Next open track day I'll sure be back, really nice track. As per usual with motor sport, if something can go wrong, it usually does, in a mean/bizarre fashion. Set the story for you, Saturday, got new front brake pads fitted, went to another place and got a front end alignment done. Saturday arvo, went to a mates to borrow some standard skyline rims, predominately to save rooting my street tyres and secondly to eliminate the chance of stuffing a rim(s). Changed the rear tyres no probs' tried the fronts, but no go. The rattle gun (from the brake shop) that had tightened the nuts back up, were so tight that the pressure put on the tyre wrench to loosen them was lifting the front end of my car, so i decided to leave them on, as we couldn’t get them off. My car had recently been upgraded with a computer and a few assorted goodies, made 220 kw @ the rears so I was keen as ever to get out. As for you who have been in my car, you can understand due to it making power in the higher end of the rev range, its not real street friendly or should i say, police/licence friendly, lets not bullshit. Sunday, Winton race way. Cut a few laps, my intake pipe kept blowing out from the cooler, first two times from a dodgy pipe clamp, third time, a new clamp but a creeping 19psi plus was just smashing the pipe out. Lowered the boost to 15 - 16 Psi, no dramas. Did a few more laps no worries, trying to find the best line around and be a smooth. Had my car booked in for ‘Tein’ fully adjustable suspension last week, but just couldn't make it. The car was surprisingly holding up ok with standard gear, but just couldn’t maintain decent corner speed with the combination of standard suspension and mixture of soft compound on the fronts and old weathered hard compounds on the back. So I thought bugger this, didn’t come all this way to just go for a cruise. Lap by lap I was increasingly growing confidence with my car and the circuit. My driving style became more of a “how fast and sideways can I get this thing” sort of a semi race/drift. Unreal to just be in the ideal environment to do and try, how and what ever, you feel like. You don’t loose points out there…. Footage will be sweet people. Just about to wrap up the day but decided (I know your thinking, ooh yes, as it all ways happens) To go out for a quick squirt, before packing up. Second or third lap in, come through a sweeping left (Ford cedit sweeper), just about to throw it right (Roll over corner). Knock, Thud, Crack! What the F_ck! Look out the window and there is my front left tyre over taking me. Don’t know exactly how fast I was going but I’d take a rough punt on at least a 100. Front left slammed into the track, managed to keep it straight, Bang ,Bang, Bang, Crunch, over the ripple strip and came to rest on the grass. My tyre ended up a good 150 meters away after it could have being mistaken for a low flying plane. Brake rotor was ground flat. So, so lucky that it happened on the most forgiving part of the track, due to the most run off and my old time favourite, no close concrete barriers, considering also that I had a passenger. Even worse if it had of being comming back down the hume...... My rim had broken away from the studs, not something I’d consider “ oh yeah, that happened to you, what a bitch”. Checked the front right rim out of interest, while calling a tow truck, and what do you know there’s two hair line fractures on two spokes, comming from the studs. Can’t help but consider the co-incidence of the rims being done up so tight, or maybe just a shit compound of alloy added with the abuse of track work I don’t know. Rims came with the car. Max load after the fact of 690Kg per rim, think I would've pushed that! But luckily after that little expensive experience I got footage, in car footage. Awesome. Haven’t seen it yet my self, but should be cut on to dvd soon. Have a close look at the photos, you can see the centre of my rim still firmly bolted to the hub.

Any one?

It's slowed to 80 for the safety of the fellas working not much further than 1m from the concrete barriers, and for the fact that trucks and light vehicles enter the site off the fwy, including my self as I said.
