tristan still ran 25mm bolt ons with those rims :)

gotta love wide body

I actually had 27mm bolt on spacer to fit the rims on the front and they only just clear the coilovers :D 2.5 deg of camber helps them fit under the guard but no spacers on the rear.

Got the call today to say that Geoservices were pleased with my test results and said my interview was great!

I was offered a job on the spot and start as early as Monday :) sooooooo stoked and soooooo much more money then what I used to earn. Double infact!!

Gotta do helicopter under water escape training in Perth and a week of in house training before they send me off to a rig somewhere in the world!

After my first stint away, when I'm back I'll be looking for an EVO :D

I'm not too sure yet man. I've got my eye on a few cars but ideally it'll be something 'S' chassis so S13 or 180sx mainly because their is epic amount of parts available for these, cheap, and I love the styling of them. Smashed up pig S13/180 is hot lol aswell as a clean streeter with outrageous fitment.

Did it take you a couple of laps to get into the swing of things, like basically not sliding the first few laps?

Be good for the first timers if they let us just lap the track a couple times just to get the feel of the track

this is were i may have gone wrong lol

first time on the track, i went about 130kmh on the handbrake into turn 1 haha

i slowed it down abit till i got the hang of it. still havent tbh though. i want a missle spec 32 or a 180 now as a slide car.

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
