just wanna know where the best place to put a fire extinguisher in an r32?

last time i took out the top of the centre console and screwed it down in the existing holes.

but then when i got the car scrutinered (i cant spell) they told me that i needed to use bolts not self tapping screws so in the

end i had to duct tape it to the side of the seat. And they passed it but man there was no way i was getting that out in a hurry if there was a fire.

any suggestions on where to put it?

Troy. So you took the job!

I'll probably be at this. Havn't given it much thought though.

Yeh, working between Singapore, Malaysia and Hyderabad.

So its time for the rwd boys to step up and blow my PBs away. We cant have them standing any longer or the awd boys will think we are soft :)

I have mine mounted to a thin metal plate that is bolted in via the seat bolts in front of the drivers seat. I think I originally saw that idea on here, if you do a search you might be able to find it.

I'm trying to get ready, waiting on some tyres if I get back and can get them on my car is about right.

Cool man. Are you coming to watch?

I'm probably going to be at this but I don't think i'll be getting near 23's! Maybe a 27. I don't have enough power for sandown.

sweet i just changed my pads but dont know how worn the discs are

gonna search now bout the fire extinguisher.

ill be in...

i think ill jump in the standard class i wont push it too hard

Haha - well said.

Sandown can be tough on brakes, but just don't be silly. If you brakes start to feel different (fade away) don't keep pushing. Back off, put your hazzards on and keep off the racing line to let other past.

Flush the brake system and fill with Motul RBF, Motul 5.1 or Castrol SRF.

If i'm on the money I also only get one hot lap with my brakes. If you back off for a whole lap they should cool and come back to you, as long as your codriver hasn't completly cooked them??? Eh Adz....!!

My 1:23.1 was done with 234rwkws. Teh tyres were only one track day old as at Phillip Island the RE55s were brand spankers. I ran a 1:24 at Dutton in well used RE55s and the 260rwkws , but the driver was well off the pace that day due to enjoying whayt little Shepparton has to offer on Sat night :D

So 230rwkws shoud dbe good for a 23s ort high 22s if your tyres are up to it.

paid for my camms licence..... ill be there just wont go too hard every lap.

ive lowered the boost level now anyway, only making round 240 rwkw mark... 7000 rpm rev limit too

But still plenty :-)

just gotta get an extinguisher and mount it.

well last week i got 2 new tyres (although just stock federal street tyres). hoping to get a set of semis for the next one maybe...

brakes arrive tomorrow...

so im in. im really pumped for this one.

it'l be my second time at sandown, so hoping to beat my 1.26.4 i did last time

Im still tossing up whether or not to come...Id prefer not to drive in the rain as id like to able to drive my car home...dont want to waste my money to go hard for half the day...

    • Thanks for that.... If only I could do something once and be happy with that, like some people do....
    • I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)
    • Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage
    • Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.  
    • Just pulled the passenger apart so got a good idea, also the side bracket that pivots the top half is completely cooked.. how I don’t know.. haha and paid $400 also included a photo of the passenger seat! She is mint
