Yep, last night and looking at your avatar I remember the wheels ;)

Tats goes "whose car is that?" and I'm like, I don't know! Do you think I know every single Skyline in Canberra??? :laugh:

Did not realise Nitto was a female owner. I've always seen a male driver (I'm pretty sure) whenever it's at Powercruise :x

Trent and his wife own nitto and mercury motorsprot.

Cool guys they are

Yup, Nitto's owned by Mercury Motorsport/Trent and Tessa. I believe it's primarily "her car", so yeah it's kinda driven by a silly blonde girl like Shell :P

Also agree with Andrew. While I've never really seen anything Trent's said let alone spoken to him, Tessa is a pretty cool chick and tends to put amusing shite on Facebook lol

Are they within the SAU Realm?

Spotted Shiv's brother: Very nice front stance. The GTR front bar with the black bonnet (Z-tune style) makes it look very impressive. He followed me for a good 15minutes and then I followed him for a good 10-15minutes. Gave a wave on my turn off - not sure if he saw.

    • 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.
