Yes your GTR isn't up and running, yes you're currently being raped of money you deserve and yes you drive an old school Ford.........

But we don't give a flying fu** about your car! We care about YOU!!!!

You're someone quite a few of us really care about and you could come on a bloody moped for all we care, as long as you're there, we're happy.

Christ if it was about the cars then i would have been booted from the club 5 months ago in shame, yet i'm still there every week and one of the main members in Canberra and i'm going out on a limb here, but i'd wager if i stopped coming there'd be quite a few people that'd miss me too.

There are a few members that make SAUACT what it is, and you my friend....are one of them.

And I seriously couldn't have said this better. Also know there are many other SAU ACT'ers that I feel the same way about!

Now,before I get too overwhelmed;spotted a tough looking neat red 31 at Inline Suspension,Johnny's cool 31 in Fysho',a schweet 33 in bayside blue(I believe Kurt's old one),DJ D's old 32 near Fysho' markets last night(I'm pretty sure I saw it right...) and Soarer Gal(the driver formally know as Skyline Gal)and Sinista at Jerra' pub,sans rides....Oh,all this 'Line goodness!

Heh, exactly the same reason I went to the coast!

To be honest, I found the Clyde to be quite.....tame, granted I was going a bit easy as it was my first time (LOL Clyde virgin) and I was expecting some serious angles after all the hype people had given it. My DBA Slotteds worked a miracle though! Macquarie Pass is far more exciting and is something you reeeeally need to try (organise a cruise to Kiama). The Clyde's corners weren't really tight enough for my liking.

Oh....and Recaro's reeeeally aren't made for long trips!

Edit: Going up was very slow due to rain and visibility of like two meters.

And race_snooze, you were in an over taking lane....hence the hauling ass ;)

both Macquarie pass and Kangaroo valley are good

i remember on a pulsar cruise we headed up to robertson which is from memory you just take a turn off after sutton forrest. From Robertson you head down some cool hill that is steep and sharp corners and yea it takes you to kiama... it was good fun lets do it while its still warmish :(

True but that has its advantages at least you know no tool will be overtaking you :)

Dont bet on it. Have seen quite gruesome accidents twice when a tool has overtaken round a blind corner and wiped out a bike rider or two. One was a fatal accident.

If you are going down that way, if you get stuck behind a slow truck wait it out till you get to the top, turn around and try again. Taking 5 minutes extra to get to the top is nothing compared to overtaking around a blind corner/double lines and killing someone coming the other way.

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
