Yep! This grumpy old man fell off a ladder on Sunday. My left heelbone is now in 9 separate pieces. I will be non weight bearing on crutches for next 6 weeks maybe longer, then partial weight bearing for another 6 to 10 weeks. Ortho cheerfully tells me it will be around 18 months befor i'm walking normally again. Happy New Year Jay. Move to Boonah is postponed.

Those guys who have used my place for repairing or working on their cars....it is still available, but, I will be pretty much only able to offer advice, no hands on stuff for the near future.

:P

Hey Jay,

Well I didn't expect you to do anything that serious in lieu of your next track surprise.

Hope you enjoy the time (as much as possible) and relax a bit. I look forward to seeing you back at the track (on the track), and will no doubt be hastling you about the harness setup again soon when I get back to it.

looks like i will miss the first 2 or 3 level 2 meets this year.....unless.....maybe........what do you reckon.........my old RangeRover ...has a 4 speed auto.....how would it go through the esse's....and how about turn 6??.....maybe not eh!

Don't worry mate we'll get the bastards that did this....oh wait it was self inflicted!

Bad luck, nothing worse than being unable to drive your car...I broke my foot once and it was hell. I hope all goes well for you.

666DAN I'm going back out there tomorrow with my 2 boys and a friend( it happened at our house outside Boonah) Ican identify the ladder that did it and they are going to give it a good kicking for me....but what the h*ll...if you want to join in ....the more the merrier.

The saving grace of the thing is ....I don't have to have any surgery or even wear a cast.... which is great news in this hot sticky weather ;)

    • Welcome. This is not really true. We have a whole forum here just for the NA shitboxen. And they are not very different from the turbo shitboxen. Just weaker brakes and gearboxes, and no LSD, for the most part.
    • I'm pretty sure it has an 040 in it @Duncan Also reading up, that turbo should top out at 250 as you first thought. It will be interesting to see how early it chokes due to the changes in the head too
    • Yeah confirmed they are Nismo 555s, found the boxes in the spares with the factory injectors in. Yeah the AAC has been relocated to allow reuse of the factory brake booster line, and yes confirmed it has a 1 way valve in it. Unfortunately the one on the car is cracked, I'll need to replace it. Pretty sure I've got all the AAC plumbing correct in my previous post, but I am going to source some new fittings with 90o angles to help with the hose routing and also one really specific moulded shape for the AAC intake to cold start hose (will raid the back of our local repco when I get a chance and work out some combo that works) One of the big things I learned in the GTR is you need to be able to get your hands all around the bay when something goes wrong. I've done a bunch of re-routing now and it should be much more practical now. Also got the BOV mount re TIG-ed by the local engineering shop so that should be good to go now. Never got to the fuel pump because of some life stuff today, but will pull it to confirm it is suitable for 300rwkw when I get a chance
    • Hello everyone, I am from Malta and have recently bought myself a fully stock 1992 Nissan Skyline GTS. It has the RB20DE engine and thus is NA. Unfortunately, not a lot of information can be found online related to the GTS, unlike the information for GTS-T and GTR variants. Apart of the Skyline, I also got a 1984 Porsche 924 2.0l NA and a 2002 Renault Clio 1.5DCi for everyday use. Excited to be apart of the community and perhaps get better information on cars such as the GTS.
    • The fuel pump bracket just slides straight up.  Below is a pic I stole off a site. But basically put hand in for fuel pump, wiggle it all about a bit while pulling up.
