PPG ftw.....quality of workmanship on their gears is unbelieveable....when i worked at triumph rover spares...PPG was just starting up..and my boss bought a couple of gearsets for the W58 supra boxes to go in his track car and his classic adelaide/targa car......we put the boxes together in our workshop and when the boss took me for a spin in his Triumph TR8...even though it only had something like 270kw....having the PPG gearset in there made the gear changes like a shift kitted auto...it was..and still is one of the fastest accelerating cars ive ever been in.....

I don't wanna know how much I've spent so far but on the car it's close to 25-30k I reckon.

I'll be speaking to ppg later on about some gearsets, but there is a nice hks dog box forsale on the auctions for around 7-8k del. Hmm choices, but I'm broke atm :)

Well I'm heading out the door now for the 10 hour drive to Phillip Island. ;)

I don't really follow the V8s, but guess I got the best seat there ... and thank God they've got some Australian Superbike racing there too ;)

Got my SAU hoodie. If I see a TV camera (no doubt I will), I'll be sure to represent :P See all you lads again when I get back on Monday night. :)

also, FML FTW

Today, I found out why my husband had wanted to wait until marriage to get it on. Last night was the first night of our honeymoon, and he informed me that he wasn't always Ben, but used to be Brenda. His 'penis' doesn't work and he had wanted to know I "truly loved him" before he had let me know. FML
Today, we went to the mall and my husband picked me out some perfume. When I asked him why he liked that particular one he responded with, "that's what's the stripper at my bachelor party was wearing." He was completely serious. FML
Today, I was working at a hospital-level rest home. I was making the rounds when I noticed a woman was sitting in her (electric) wheelchair in the middle of the hall. Going closer I saw her battery was flat so I said "Uh-oh! Looks like you've died." She bawled her eyes out and said "Not yet." FML
Today, I realized that the shorts I have been wearing all day say "Juicy" on the ass. My name is John. FML
Today, I woke up, took a shower, made some pasta, drank 3 glasses of water and brushed my teeth. I then left my apartment to see signs posted all over warning us not to use the water without boiling it because the water company just found E-coli in the water. FML
Thats one thing im worried about. Im either gonna get it pulled down and some ppg goodies put in or go something like a HKS dog box and sell the getrag.

thought about a close ratio os giken gearset with larger input shaft etc

what will ya be using your car for if ya got a ppg not very street friendly my mate has a dogbox in his sr20det pulsar for drags/track great for track and drags not so good on the street

and who wants to wear there dogbox out on the street anyway not worth it.

i was gonna get one but till i thought about it was not suitable for my setup to have plus 9 to 10k for ppg box i think last i looked at em.

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
