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.

Spotted Bill back on deck after 2+ weeks dealing with freeeekin Pneumonia, only drove the ol' girl (the car) twice in that time.

Took her for a spin today to catch up with a friend (yes I do have one, but that's about it!) ... and

Spotted a black 34 in a carpark over Weston Creek way along with a 'mint' kinda green 33 in the same carpark.

Very nice to see you all again :action-smiley-069:

Hi Jeremy .... It wasn't me? I did do a little running around today!!

Well, you would've seen me for sure as when I passed the white R34 GTT it was single lane traffic over a bridge crossing a lake (Gunnerz) around 2pm'ish. No idea where you live so not sure if you live around that area.

A bit before 3pm today a black S2 R33 turning off Canberra Ave into Newcastle > Fyshwick. I didn't see a lot of it but looked very straight, I'm guessing paint not original and had led tail/brake lights, I'm not usually into those but this looked ok.

Whoever you are, nice car from the little I saw :thumbsup:

hmmm No idea. I'm pretty sure it was a coupe. Had red P plates if that means anything.

Yep to the P's with a chick driver, if it's a 4 door I seem to see it a lot including having a loo break at Braidwood a couple of weeks ago.

      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.
