pete i was down talking to George Vidovic on the weekend, he's got a few nice choopers down there. Only had a quick look as i was more interested in his cobra

looked funny though in the driver car park area, there were Audi R8's Ferrari's, Porsches and a nice big matt black chopper in the middle

Thats right your in Melbourne now. Does George still call himself "Python"? He's got an nice blue Cobra & an old white FLH Harley thats been on TV shows a couple of times.

My bike is always on the back cover of 'Heavy Duty' & 'Chopper Australia' magazines and Western QBE ads these days so George may know it from there.

haven't moved anywhere yet just went over for a race event, and the people in melbourne have been screwing me around so i have been speaking to someone up on the gold coast trying to sort something out up there *better Jap racing scene*

George owns a company that builds cobra kit cars as well (damn good ones he is currently building 1 for Mr M Schumacher), which is why he calls himself the python. His helmet is painted in snake skin, looks different to everyone else's basic patterns

i was going to say something about yours but they was busy trying to set up the car. It wasn't to happy with 18 lap races and second hand tyres cos non of the suppliers there on the weekend had any the size he needed. Oversteer isn't the best when you need to rely on getting the power down fast to hold the porkers off down the straights

Cool.....good luck with the job prospects Nick

i'm bored so i going to share a "secret" with those of you who don't

know just yet hehe.

well about 3wks ago i bought a car from a family friend

i over heard him talking about how he wanted to get rid of his car

he told this guy he wanted $250 for it, but i only had to pay $200 hehe

could've gotten atleast $3000 for it but i'm glad he didn't want that much haha.

so anywayz all i had to do was get it registered and get a new fuel pump

coz the 1 on it was screwed (atleast that's what he got told), so i rego'd it

and got a fuel pump and well still waiting to get it home LOL.

it's not running properly and it's not coz of the fuel pump so my dad is

gonna get some1 to look at it or something.

got insurance on it aswel, it's only costing me $21 a month wooooo

ah yeah i haven't mentioned what it is :(

it's a 1987 Nissan Pintara GXE

    • Thanks mate 👍 The car was brought into the UK by a USAF mechanic until he was stationed back to the US, one owner later I bought her back in 2009. Luckily the only corrosion was on the sill seams, so once taken back to metal and treated and sealed all ok, I then undersealed the car myself and check yearly and treat any corrosion which to be honest is zero. She's garaged most of the time and hardly ever driven in the rain, but as you say most are rotten unfortunately, I was lucky in finding her as she was and still is in excellent condition.  
    • Stunning car.  Looks amazing!  You're in the UK?  How the hell do you stop your car rotting away beneath you?  British cars are the WORST I've ever seen in regards to rust.  Some of the cars SR Autobody have done are borderbeyond saving.
    • not a date code? or a foundry code? 
    • I have up to date pics of the engine build and turbo conversion over on my instagram @skpro_jects if you want to take a deeper look.   Basically the exhaust manifold is straight bolt on and the ports match (they arent any smaller than a 25 or 26 head).    the intake ports are different shape so the 20/25det manifold will bolt up but wont match properly or seal. You will need to port match using the 25det gasket as a stencil. Personally i ran the entire stock 20neo intake setup and have configured the swirl valves and torque valve to work based on my custom parameters to help with off boost response and spool. But this is using a standalone aem v2 ecu. The stock 20det ecu wont be able to control them.     
    • Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by
