bit of an update, After sydney ADGP round i was left with a fair bit of damage suspension wise and the turbo also is on the way out. what a bummer cause during all this i was in the process of buying a new gearbox since i had sold the Jerico 4 speed Nascar box. I ran that for ADGP but then ripped it out as soon as i got home.

I now have bought one of these babies!

TTI 4 speed straight cut dog engagement sequential! flat shifts come at me!

Now onto the suspension damage... i managed to break a fair bit of stuff during a wheel on wheel contact with Rob Whyte

managed to break the knuckle in 3 pieces along with the coilover and the rim. So i need a new set of knuckles. Have decided that i will probably go back to a cut and shut knuckle and take spares with me as its much simplier from a parts replacability point of view.

turbo is also noisy :(

so i'll prob steer clear of the Garretts since they have not been too relable for me, will prob go with a Kando t67 25g!

this is how car sits atm

Oh and i also did G1 few weeks ago. and i sucked, mainly cause i was in the Garage7 missile which is a battle car not a competition car and mallala just doesnt allow for low powered cars to keep up. that didnt stop me from doing some backies and putting on a show! Took my sponsor/tuner/mate Declan co-owner of garage7 for a drive and he loved it. that was enough for me to make the day worth it haha

Richard from 1110 engineering made me up a Clutch activation set up in the form os nissan fork, carrier and ball. Used all new parts, bit of engineering went into making this , whole new input shaft cover had to be made with a shaft to suit the carrier.

    • Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.

    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
