...We started as Team Gatecrasher, Team Bin It, Team Flat Spots, Team Whatever, we had fun ...

Damn, almost had it! I wonder where i went wrong. :(

Thanks a mint for the pics, and 100% agree. We did have fun! :laughing-smiley-014:

...oh, and now i have seen those pics. Sorry about the flat spot. We always knew it was going to be my doing :P

well troy jamezilla told me you have a bit of a flat spot in bed too which is why I stopped answering your calls all those years ago. now if only I could get snowman to return mine.... :P

I better start building a car!! :P

Round 1 in VIC sounds fantastic, that means i'll get some merchandise that actually fits me, when vic is the last round they never have any small shirts, jumpers or jackets left!! :closedeyes:

:PGoes looking for 3rd co-driver in 3 years :no:

Brisby, I am more than happy to co pilot the silver bullet again, I have a date with destiny at Sandown & Winton with the silver bullet, PB!! And we owe Ryan and Jarrod an absolute beating at the next one!

That car is the coolest!! I love it! It's a bit of a handful though, well that's the perception anyway! :kiss:

You make the call and I'll start getting sponsors! :D

Oh and my car is already half dead (just the passenger side), it's a long story!

I'll have it back soon and i'm thinking of upgrading to a new car...

But, but...its like Sept 2007???? Dont entries open 3 days before the event and scrutineering only 11 hours before the start of the event ???? :kiss:

Count me in....just have to get the pesky Sil80 back so we can TAKE WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY OURS!! Of course there is the small matter of that other car that beat us as well. Actually , not a single car out there beat us...we beat ourselves :D

GTR FTW!

I better find some motivation to pull my engine out and fix my diff/sump then.

Some casual observations about GTR drivers. They wear velcro shoes. They use electric tooth brushes. They use clip on ties. They prefer the coitus interruptus method rather then slipping on jerry.

There isnt much about anything they do that doesnt involve a shortcut or a leg up. So why when it comes to driving woudl you bother putting the front diff back together? Surely the easy/lazy approach would be to just drive the thing in rwd :kiss:

BTW - for those interested to know just how bad the clutch was in the Vantage...

You can see the heat scoring on both sides of the flywheel and just a shadow of the former clutch. The clutch itself dissolved into dust.

Ooops.

Do you think Dr.Claw would help Gadget? He-Man would help Skelator? Sylvester would help tweety?

Yes. maybe...

We will find sponsors, whether it be through lies and deception, or simply from our stunning good looks, we will have more stickers than you!!!

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
