Helllllllllooooooooo I'm still here, just got the suspension changed in my 34 today actually. So I'll be spending a little more time driving it around now. I have some sad news though, I'm moving

Blew the cobwebs out of @Sinista32 last Sunday for a few hours. It's great to get the passion back every so often

No you just tried to give him a run. Stop telling us how you are driving like a dickhead.

The only "racing" you're allowed to do is a "Rosie Race". This is where you see an R34 GTR in your street and you go to accelerate and change gears - the catch to this is you have to crunch a gear by mistake and feel like a total idiot.

Yep I'm with you ... lets leave racing/speeding out of the vocab ...

BUT .. spotted (from a distance) a very clean looking G.M Grey 32, wingless on Wentworth Ave this afternoon a little after 4 heading towards the city, looked nice from what I saw.

I like to accrue my spotting, so as follows;

-Every day i see a black r33 s2 parked on gladstone st fyshwick with a weird arse cannon that looks like 80% of ther tip had been cut off

-White R34, stock, high clean on drakeford passing from maswon to woden see it a few arvos a week

-saw that yellow r34 with the datsun badge at calwell shops when i was rocking up. just fitted the RF FMIC and usually my bumper clears the kerb but the bottom if the hose clamp just scraped and he gave me a weird look.

-Saw a grey R32 GTR at Bruce CIT campus two tuesdays ago, we passed each other i gave him the "cool r32 GTR dude stare" and he gave me the "Nice boat non GTR person"

-Saw a sweet White R31 with wide steelies must have been 16 x 8 -10 or 16 x 9 +0 looked banging

I didn't notice that !! your car must fly!

Its easy to do with the speed limits, if your down the bushy end of bindubi but I woulda thought there would be a decent amount of those awesome public servant type drivers around

      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

      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 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
