confirmed with vic roads. my licence resumes midnight satnight 21st july 2007.

so at 12:01am just after midnight i am cleared to drive.

my licence wont be sent out till monday but that is ok and they acknowledged i can drive without the physical card and the police give you a week to hand the licence in if an offence has occured or they need to check it. i originally thought they would post it out a week before i got it back, but thats not the case. happy days are here ;)

the countdown is a vb program i got from planetsourcecode.com it was someone's quote changer program, i just modified it to do random quotes and do a countdown using vb date functions. nothing special. if you want the code i can give it to you, but its visual basic typical crap hacky code

yeah losing your licence 4 6 months does suck but that last 2 weeks is a killer it drags like you wouldn't believe but even better when you go to get it back and you think your on p's for a while longer and you get handed your full licence instead ;) and yes you do drink more because you don't have to drive but the car doesn't always have everything done that is planned becasue "you say 6 months plenty of time to work on it"

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
