spotted 3 33s, 2 32s (one packing a big turbo, 25 and ext gate) and a 32 GTR at the 1/8 sprints at tailem bend today, was crewing for my mate with his EB Fairmont. Some good quick runs too

Did a double-take driving down a random side street in Grange yesterday afternoon...looked in my rearview mirror to see Even_Flow's white Cefiro behind me. :laugh:

:action-smiley-069:

Hahaha, i did the same thing!! I turned off trimmer and said to the missus "Did a ceffy just turn off up there" (Cue boost) The chase was on! Man we run into each other all the time!!! I wasnt sure if you where pulling over for a chat or not but i was in a huge rush. Would have been good to have a sus of yours, looks good cruising past.:thumbsup:

Red 34 4 door with queensland plates on Upper Sturt Rd in that first twisty bit above the Belair golf course - headed towards Crafers

I was in the Ranger heading towards blackwood....the 34 sounded tough :D

Yeah but was going to a mate's house down the end of the street anyway, figured you had to be somewhere in a bit of a hurry. Guess I'll actually meet you at AJD anyways.

Your car sounded pretty nice.

Spotted an orange(?) 33 with veil-side rear bar thursday night near the Expressway entrance getting pulled over by a Police bike. Hope you didn't get defected!

Also spotted my cars double yesterday at lunchtime driving down south road hill.

Spotted a sheeet load of imports down the bay... at All Japan Day!:thumbsup:

I was mistakenly spotted by what must have been a couple of your friends yesterday afternoon. Was waiting to turn onto Bower Road, when a plumber's van pulls up next to me and the driver yells "Jazza!" then started to turn left, before reversing a few metres, having another look and yelling "You're not Jazza!" and took off again. :laugh:

    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32
