hi mate

we use gts4 diffs which helped lower the ratio but didnt make the difference we were looking for.

cheers russ

p.s : and yeah your dead right, the reimax gears are higher grade steel replacing sintered as well.

do you race utes?

oh ok. yeah i find with mine. its nicly spaced gearing but just to tall to start with.

ie: 1st.90kph. 2nd.140kph. 3rd 185kph and 4th/5 same as factoy this is at 8000rpm

what did you find the gts4 ones did for you? im only thinking cos ive got to rebuild my rear diff anyway.

motul gearff type 2 f**ked it after 1 launch. i was using penrite limslip 85-140 for ages with out issue.

oh. yeah my work is "hi tech motorsport" we run 6 fords and 1 holden. also a supra in production sports. curantly re doing it with a propper pedal box and a bladder fuel system.

Giant, too good mate. TOO GOOD.

I've just got my carbon shaft in, stripped a lot of weight off the car (stereo, aircon, tar etc) and I'll be getting there shortly too (I hope!).

What an inspiration. Thanks for sharing the info + the vid too. You're a legend!

Is anyone in the know if Thursday's 'Round 2' of C.B. is an invite-only affair,or can us pleb's with pulled apart cars come and watch for inspiration too? I'd love some time around the cars just to soak it all in...

Too right Roy I often look at the pictures of when I first bought the car. It was a collector condition late model R32 GT-R. Such a minter and I am the sole person responsible for destroying it!!! Scares me sometimes and yes, makes me sad.

I was invited to Street car of the year, as well as Circuit Battle by the boys at Autosalon. But I declined both opportunities as I've yet to get a grip of driving the beast (I know I can't do a 1.04!!!!) I'd rather be confident of nailing a great time rather than have a bad time splattered on pages that 20,000 readers will read.

Thos interested in my build can see pics here:

:rofl: No doubt will be a nice car when finished.

LOL...also a hard car to learn how to drive fast. My golden rule, its easier to drive a slow car fast then it is a fast car fast. :thumbsup: I have to say i have a lot of car envy with some of you ppl. The money you are able to spend on your cars...i just cant comprehend thos sorts of figures. So woudl love to get some nice goodies for my car.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
