  1. I hate the fact that Williams had to let Hulk go
  2. Webber has another Barry Crocker being tagged. Romain in the wall...I give any driver the kiss of death!
  3. Another reason to hate Vettel. Was that his Mrs in the RBR garage
  4. Alonso is phenomenal
  5. Speak to Risking. He has a lot of touring cars passing through his workshop and deals with some privateer teams. I just bought some R35 rotors to use with my Alcons...if not I woudl have sold you mine
  6. Well Coca-Cola have been trying to acquire Monster to boost their market share in energy drinks. There have been some talks between Mercedes and Coca-Cola the past 6 months and some that think that Coco-Cola be it with an acquired Monster or other brand may step up with some major branding/funding for Mercedes. Some have suggested it could be one of the reasons for Hamo jumping on board as it gives him a profile and brand to be associated with outside of motorsport
  7. Would have taken tha bbefore putting it into storage but now want my original $300 asking price for it. Figure its worth that to someone with an Australian delivered car that wants a new standard radiator
  8. They will clear 365mm rotors, if you are using 376mm Supercar rotors then it will be getting tight but I think will fit. To give you an idea the Alcon Mono6 kits on 365mm rotors clear those rims, though the extra 5mm radius and the extra width of the caliper means you may be suspect. I know people that run the Alcon Supercar caliper and rotor setup are able to get them under 18" Enkei RP-F1 and also LM GT4s and TE37s.
  9. Can post. I am located in Southbank, Melbourne but parts are currently under lock and key out in the eastern suburbs at Ringwood.
  10. Yep. Sitting in storage collecting dust...along with the other parts
  11. Alonso was 100% class again! He deserves to have Vettel fall off the track in Brazil and take the points for the 2012 WDC
  12. That looks to be a mega neat R32 If I could have my time again, a FMIC, and basic exhaust then nice suspension mods for a great handling, reliable fun car. Why I spent a load of money to ruin a nice road car I have no idea. Be cool to have such a neat car again!
  13. Does anyone know of the N1, particularly those for the R32 GTSt do the go into the door jam so under the door when its closed. I have std R32 GTSt sideskirts and they sometime foul on the door and sick of them. Want to get some that dotn go into the door jam and dont have the opportunity to rub/foul
  14. That sounds very encouraging!!!!
  15. Cool old Starion!
  16. You sometimes get pad knock off on some kits but its definitely not the norm. I have never driven a Skyline without the booster so cant comment on that but the Catherham, friends App J Historic Touring car all felt great without a master. But they are light cars with little tyres, ;little horsepower with little in the way of braking capacity. Be interested to see how a Skyline feels in contrast, if it feels the same then great....at the end of the day if its a Targa car with ABS I say dont stress there are other things more important to mess with like suspension to get the car to stop
  17. Nice car. Shame I missed it at the car wash from across the street of where I work I would have liberated the keys due to all the awesome Nismo bits and bobs that finish this car so nicely
  18. The whole brake master cylinder thing is not that big a deal if you have ABS. Depends on what you are running now and which AP caliper it is you are buying. You have done well to find an AP kit for a GTR with that sized rotor as they are normally custom and not off the shelf AP with that rotor size
  19. When you trial single let me know what you are doing with your twin setup. I know someone looking for all the fluff needed for going to a twin street setup
  20. What info I can find on these says that they do not retain NEO variable timing? Were you running these in your R34 GTT?
  21. You have a few options. Assuming you are running an AP 6 pot from the 5000 series then you will be fine with up to a 380mm rotor. I would personally try and run something thicker than 32mm if you are going to be doing a dedicated targa car where you dont have the time to even detect, handle and live with any brake fade. So depending what you are looking to do you can go for a setup you can either try and grab some R35 rotors and hats. You can grab some V8 Supercar rotors and get hats made up to suit a caliper of your chosing. Stoptech do a 380x35mm But generally I would be looking at an AP or Alcon caliper that will do a 376-380mm with a thickness of 34-35.5mm. Inside a TE37 they will fit fine and still have clearance for rocks etc
  22. Steve Johnson may be a nice guy, byt DJR putting him in that seat for so many years won't have helped a whole lot. RIP DJR! Also, not a fan of Whincup so hope that Red Bull make it hard for him as I am sure that T888 and RB will have an agreement as main sponsor about veto rights on other lesser sponsors.
  23. May come for a drive up Sat night and tap some kegs! Will see how the weather looks
  24. How heavy are the Greddy pipes. I am trying to chose between the HKS and the Greddy pipes at the moment
  25. Great to see another German GTR! The only Skylines and other imports I have seen in Germany normally sport UK plates. Looks like a neat example too What part of Germany are you in?
