Mate your car sounds awesome! The turbo sounds great... just convert it to manual!!

First time on south road was me I recon, saw you going the other direction past the Mitsubishi dealer. Second definitely wasn't me though, there is one going around that's almost identical to mine except he's got dark tint.

If you walked a little further past the Toyota dealer/mechanic you would have seen my car. I am actually surprised my car isn't seen all that often, its in the same spot almost every day for the whole day, lol.

Lol Abe, I spot your car like... twice a day!

I just didn't want to reveal it's location :)

But I did spot you driving past Hungry Jacks last week(ish) at like 7pm. Your car sounds great!

Soon you'll spot my little GTR going around the Southern suburbs. 2 weeks and she's back on the road!

    • Hi Gents, Someone I know (experienced engine builder) built an engine. It had some chinesium rods that came with ARP 2000 bolts. One failed on the dyno, destroyed the whole thing. The only possibilities are: Installation error. Possible, but we should discount it almost 100% because he knows what he's doing. He doesn't discount it that much, because he's being hard on himself. QC/QA problems with ARP products. I'd like to discount this, but I have heard a number of stories about similar failures, and stories of some builders buying 2 sets of everything, x-raying everything, and picking only those bolts that they are completely happy with. This behaviour coming from anecdotal stories of ~1% failure rates. 1% of all rod bolts failing would be about 1000x higher than I would expect to be anywhere near tolerable. If I were ARP I certainly wouldn't even be selling the product if they were dying at that rate (for non-installation error reasons). So, I would prefer to discount that possibility too. Fakes. Specifically, fakes being sold bundled with cheap rods sets from CCP factory B in Shenzen, or wherever the stuff is being made this week. So the question here is, does anyone else have some horror stories that would point to fakes being circulated in this manner?
    • I forget this is an au website, my GTR FS5R30A was 2200 AUD delivered but I did have to go to a warehouse near the port to pick it up myself.
    • Excuse for an epic road trip?  I expect a few people would be thinking of doing that given the price.
    • That's tempting to me, but I don't know how to not f**k you around, given I'm interstate.
    • I've got a R33 turbo box I don't need if you're interested. I only ran it for a couple of track days and on the dyno before going sequential. In Melbourne, $1500 if you don't stuff me around.
