Spotted lots of GTR's up at CRD, including GZ R33's :rofl:

EDIT: Oh for those who also have seen HPI 5 (I think it was 5), there was an extremely phat customer car sitting at CRD... something along the lines of a white Prime Garage Sil80 (yes, its the real one) :wassup:

sounds like supafly

Spotted: a Footlong spanner that had been left loose in my engine by Jarred from our beloved garage, over 3 months ago!!! i found it on Sunday and it had worked its way down under my fanbelt and radiator, i dont even want to think about what damage could have been done if it had caught any moving parts. But fortunately it must have missed everything and i'll be returning it next week.

spotted a black r32 gtst with skylines australia sticker on front bumper at wake field on saterday ( i know who's car this is but im sorry i forgot your name :P

Yeah 'twas me, saw yours and the other 32 and the 300, just forgot to post them up, did you put your car on the track? how about that old school strolla with the 202 and locker? saw that thing on two wheels a couple of times!

Andrew (VR33), are you sure theyre a good shop then? if theyre gonna leave their tools lying around like that, id hate to think what happens to cars,

Also, how didnt you see it for so long? surely the people that have been looking at your car wanted to see the engine???

yeah they are good, very good, but Ed's apprentice just messed up.

I was'nt the one that found it, it was a potential buyer, i popped the hood and after he had a good look around, he said, " does that come with the car?" pointing. so i had a look and sure enough there it was. I dont really bother looking in my engine bay, theres no reason for me to.

Im not happy about the fact that it was there and the damage it could have done could have been enormous (including crashing at high speed) but it wont effect me going there in future, they are great guys, and top notch mechanics, Jarred just messed up.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
