omg that would have been so freaky!!! damn kangaroo!! least you both got away without any injuries/damage! you'd think they'd hear the car coming... skylines can be pretty loud, and i'm guessing yours is! maybe he thought your car was gorgeous enough for him to try committing suicide on?

anyways! glad your baby is still on the road

[Roy]

Your workmanship and individualism is incredible, the nick you use on SAU is really an understatement cos ur a BLOODY LEGEND !

I mean pictures and dyno figures speak for themselves. 300+ rwkw out of a RB21 is simply awesome !

Hope one day we can meet and share stories .

Cheers

Good to hear nothing happened brother..... I've had something similar happen before, last year about a week after getting my brand new car I was travelling down the highway at about 85-90km/h, no bushlands anywhere near in sight, and a kangaroo darted out in front of me from the bit of grass in the middle of the highway!! I swerved and missed it, but it happened so quickly I don't know how the hell I managed to avoid hitting it.

Damn crazy roos!

[legend01]

OK for those of you who have asked pic's up

and for those that would like to know power figgers but I still have issues with it leaning out above 5k which have to be sorted yet maybe a bit more power then who knows

[silver gts-t]

new wheels also? very nice..

where did you mount the fuel filter?

and once again thanks for the block.

[benm]

wicked power curve on that thing!

[legend01]

gday John

The wheels came with the car when I bought it but were pertty chatty looking so I sent these ones to magman and had them sandblasted and repainted came up great had lots of comments about them. Its amazing what a coat of paint will do to an old set of wheels.The new fuel filter is in standard mounting position execpt its after market and expensive but reuasble and no worries about the block glad I could help.

Hi Ben

It is a wicked power curve but awesome to drive even on low boost and surprisingly good of boost too

[GoldZilla]

An absolutely stunning car, Peter. Looked great in the pictures you've been posting over the time of the rebuild, but to see it in the metal is a whole new thing!

Over 300rwkW, is it still a 2.0-litre, or have you had it bored out or thrown in a stroker crank?

[legend01]

Hi GoldZilla

Its now a 2.1 ltr been bored 40thou or 79mm and has an rb25 crank which makes it 2108cc and thanks for the complement

Peter
