Ahh thought it may have been you, I seen your car in the carpark going back a while ago and is the only silver R34 I know of in Newwy, and seen you again last week (I drive a black Lexus IS300 with a C West kit with bronze Advans) You may have seen my work mates black R34 (bakes) going back just over 12 months ago in the same car park before he sold it!

Haven't seen you yet but i'll keep an eye out.

I've only been working there fulltime since feburary, but i do remember bakes car when i was visting various time over the last few years and reading about it on this site, mags etc. His (ex)car will always be the goal :worship: :worship: :worship: and if i known it was for sale, i would have made an offer. I was very disappointed once i found out it was gone :-(.

I remember seeing a panda Laser. I was pissed, I just missed the green arrow then seen you drive past. I'll try and remember to wave next time.

Spotted BB81DO driving past my work twice today. Still haven't fixed your brakes! Why would you be cruising around 2Woy? I wouldn't go near the sh¡t hole if I didn't work there

Spotted a nice white R33 gtst series 2 at Westfield Kotara. Have seen it before and its always in the staff park, but havent worked there in a while so i havent posted! There is also a nice white 34 gtt that gets in there too.thumbsup.gif

the 34 gtt would be me :) i'll keep an eye out for you, thought myself and the series 2 were the only skylines in there haha. i'm a big fan of the white evo that parks in there too, but not so sure about the supra covered in TRD parts (hopefully you know the one I mean).

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
