[sav man]

look out roy's gone and got the thread stickied

[femno]

its testament to the quality of this thread.

[Roy]

Jesus, stickied? Better clean it up and only post technical gargon....err my coriolis calculation means if i again start using my reach around shift method not only will my lap times improve to what they used to be but I will probably get more invites for sleep overs

Its Science

[DJRIFT]

im liking the sticky. you better keep us updated with brake/turbo kits you have brought/sold

[Beer Baron]

lol, not sure how it got stickied? finger slip maybe? fixed now, back with the riff raff.

[DJRIFT]

Noooooooooooooo bring sticky back.

[N1GTR]

An rb20 thread sticky? What has the world come to.

No sticky threads in this section, it will get too cluttered and it seems the thread on where did my thread go is too hard for some dopey users to find as it is.

Anyway BB thanks for putting it back.

Now, on with the 2L love

[MBS206]

It's only sticky from all the reach arounds...

[Roy]

My poor lil R32...makes no sense, why would you cheat on a pleasant enough, loyal, low maintenance thing...especially when the mistress is a far more expensive old girl with more plastic then substance, and frankly makes you bashful to be seen in public with?

Oh well, the 32 was my second love after my 31 so it could be expected in a mid life crisis I would run off with another 80s slapper.

[sav man]

You bringing the Seirra back to Aus? Cause once it's here it'll be cool and rare.

[Marlin]

Wonder how it'd go with a TD06-20G on it with plenty of Gate?

My affection is now split. Both have about 400-420hp of 2L lag-awesomeness...

OLD LOVE

NEW LOVE

I still love my R32, but there is something cool about people coming up and talking to me about the Cossie. Whether its UK, Germany, Holland or Belgium. Its a feel good car and gets so many thumbs up. At a race track with Porsches, Fezz everywhere....they all stop and look. LOL, makes me love the unloved R32 even more

[paulR32gtr]

Nice buy Roy - always loved those things.

[Marlin]

If your R32 was with you wouldn't it get even more interest????

[Lithium]

Haha funny, a mate of mine was obsessed with RB20s but ended up falling in love with Sierra's - but when he sold his R32 to move his focus to the Ford, the Sierra started coming up with ingenious ways of making him part with his money and he ended up selling that and pining for his old Skyline. Hope this one treats you a bit better

[Roy]

Its a good thing., I drove from London to Hungary and back, including waltzes all over Europe. It survived that test drive so its a good thing From the Alps to the dirty back streets of Frankfurt...everybody loves the Cossie I now regret going to the Ring and not lapping it. I was a bit concerned about being so low and rubbing tyres on guards + it tramlines rather badly as I think the steering rack bushes are gone...still, I want to go back in time now and put it in the Ring (ashamed I pussied out )

But, it was great getting back into the R32 this weekend. The in line 6s are so much nicer then the 4s, smoother, rev so more freely, and now catn wait to see how the baby Poncams and E85 go in the next fortnight. May throw the T67 on if the E85 does enough of masking as happy to live with nothing under 4,500rpm if it means we bag 310rwkw out of a stock RB20

AND thread name change...need to add "and his Cosworth penile extension"

[TTT]

Roy - do you still have the old intercooler piping for the stock manifold?

the bend from the throttle to the cooler - cold side.???
