MLR's 86 not a build thread thread
The Bogan replied to The Bogan's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
I'm more looking forward to the first time the Mrs hears it, she is going to be well pissed off......her reaction should be pretty funny. I will just explain that it needed the turbo to quiten down cold start. That reaction should be pretty sweet as well. God bless her, and may god have mercy on my soul. -

LOL, I did inform the boys at Pulse that the more annoying turbo noises the car makes the better. I'm not sure that 8 psi is actually enough boost to make annoying noises though. We shall see on Friday I suppose. f**k I hate waiting. In other news: if work sends me away before this weekend I'm gonna have a melt down. Work has a nasty habit of sending me away for months at a time, just when I am getting something done. It's like they are waiting for me to drop off my car. Me: "I just dropped my car at the shop" Work: "Cool, pack your bags, you leave tomorrow" -

Just dropped off the 86 at Pulse for turbs. Now all I need to do is be patient, aaarrrrrggggggg. -
Ahhh, compromises. Welcome to my world. No garage space, need to park outside, garage is full of the Mrs and kids crap, 3 cars in the family, soon to be 4, kids want food, Mrs wants "stuff", meh. All really want for "my" car is one I can drive to work for so I don't get wet, drive up the mountains for pies, drive to Qld for work, cheapish rego, cheapish insurance, relatively good on fuel, BUT, is reliable, handles well, has good mod support and parts are easy to replace, must be RWD manual though, and new. Apart from that it's the Mrs ASX (shitbox) for when we all go out. I'm not happy to risk my car at a track day anymore, and as for big power, where are all the big powered cars, in garages the majority of the time, or workshops because you took it out, and it broke again, or was that just my old Skyline? Until I win lotto that is, but unless its some chrome bumper car, the only other car I will own is a new model car. Whilst Skylines and Supras and RX7 are cool, they are dinosaurs that need to be wrapped in cotton wool. Unless you have more money than me, or a drug dealer. Hmmmm, compromises and hard decisions suck

Pop and bang exhaust illegal in Vic?
The Bogan replied to sean12343's topic in General Automotive Discussion
It's a trait of running carbies, or super rich tune, or a fuel munching rotor, or a tarmac eating jet truck Or it's a sign of a poor tune or "becauseracecar" with a modern fuel injection system. Kids will be kids I cannot believe the police don't come down harder on it, to me it's a classic case for a defect. Disclaimer: I do love 2 step and antilag....................at the track Meh -

Epic, both were crowd favorites -
I wouldn't call the RS4 a semi, good dry street tyre yes, semi no. In saying that I've used them on the track with my old 33 and MX5, IIRC they preformed good on the 1000kg MX5, and OK on the 1550kg 33. Opinions may vary

Street alignment all dialed in Front: -1.5°, 0 toe Rear: -1.0°, 0 toe Will be going for a squirt up the pass for a pie on Saturday, I'll then take the long way home via Jamberoo, also with a detour past the lighthouse in the Gong, and by lighthouse I mean the icecream van in the carpark near the lighthouse. In all honesty though, the set up is more about tyre life and daily driving with illusions of performance, more so than actual performance. 19 days to go till tututututu, which, is the main reason why I'm getting a turbo anyway....... -

Need a real alignment, my calibrated eye is well out of whack -
https://australia.trovit.com/cars/nissan-skyline-r32 Quite frankly the R32 GTST is currently my fav old Skyline, RWD, manual, light(ish) I'm sure this car will make someone very happy, they are getting thin so getting a decent price shouldn't be difficult Or, you could give it to me......that would make me happy
