spotted the red 32gtst with the big intercooler on northbourne around 7 today (can't remember whose it is!). also spotted the red 31 which i saw at the christmas cruise, along northbourne as well (also can't remember whose it is!). some evo-ish looking lancer wanted a race with us. could have been a real evo actually, wasn't sure but it wasn't too slow.

also spotted myself turning a corner in braddon and accidentally pulling out in front of a cop on a bike, and subsequently being pulled over to get grilled. escaped without a ticket tho thank god!

i did happen to be that white 32gtr! he was gonna do me for negligent driving or something. gave me a grilling about it being summernats, and it's double demerits and there's all these people around blah blah. anyways, i was just polite and he seemed to melow out and let me off. thanks god. still got 10 points, but could do with the money. i didn't even see the poor bugger till i was well and truly into the corner.

A couple of 'delayed' spotteds:A silver 33 GT-R with white rims and a nice exhaust note boosting it up Hindmarsh Drive from the lights on Melrose,New Years Day about 7.30ish in the eve:sounded HORN!

A blue 34 GT-T on Gilmore Road Tuesday eve(I'm pretty sure it had white rims,too...),a gunmetal grey 32 GT-R coming out of Queanbo' on Wednesday night about 7.30 again,and a Bayside Blue 34 GT-R on Gilmore Raod last night sounding fierce;poss' Theo's old ride? Coming out of ESP,I'd imagine...

All round,a good week for 'spottings'!

And many more to come tonight in and around Braddon,I'd say!

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
