I will take the NOT option! I dont know about crossed up and smoke pouring off the tyres, it looked a little crossed up and make it had an oil leak not smoke coming from the tyres (jk) :P

I've got a couple of your car with some smoke and a bit crossed up, in the process of uploading more pics now.

you want image numbers #7655 & 8170-8173 which are being uploaded with a bunch of other images HERE Its just taking a while as im uploading full res

Your first image will be up in about 20mins as its in a queue of others.

You need to speak to JAP25L to get some lessons on smoke & crossed up for next time though! :D

Are your pics going to be on the DVD we could pay for on the day? You got quite a few good ones of my orange xr6t and I noticed i couldnt save them.

Ok,

All 572 images are up, and available from the link in my signature. There were a few i had culled mainly as they were similar or double shots of others with the same car.

Im pretty sure i got most cars covered if not you need to work on your smoke making abilities!

Images can be downloaded by right clicking the image, selecting the size and then right clicking the image once loaded in the size you requested and doing a "Save As"

All images are licensed with a creative common license so the obvious stuff is non-commercial use and not passing my work off as your own (free or paid).

As these are unedited and just "as shot" im aware that levels may need to be adjusted which is fine as long as you dont strip the EXIF data.

As for requests for DVD's, i hadnt really come along with the intention of selling images or making anything out of it, it was more about helping out as a volunteer as I have before, This is something that would have to be run past the Mods \ Event organisers due to their own arrangements which included a paid photographer that turned up to do some work and not wanting to "upset the apple cart" as such.

Maybe some input from Mods \ Event organisers for those interested?

91RS, can i please use some of your pics for the next entry thread title?

One in mind is number 7244

Sure, no problems.

and lastly this "Advanced" method of repositioning cones, admittedly its not quite as accurate as we would have liked.

Just a side note, but it is interesting how little the "FAIL" on the driver's side of my windscreen distracted me. If anything it made my skids more gooderer :)

      RB gearbox options

      By rbs30 · Posted

      What is the go to gearbox these days for a RWD RB? Back in the day VG TT boxes were cheap and strong. Seems they are as expensive as an RB25 box these days. What are the options without remortgaging the house?

      Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.

      So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..

      Okay, with all that being said about sloppy blowing from twins, I happily acknowledge the superiority of a single turbo setup on the RB; however, I still plan on double trouble.  I know the -9s were quite popular for some time because they seemed to meet that sweet spot between the -7s and 5s, would introducing VCAM and/or stroking to 2.8L provide the additional displacement/flow to push twins closer to the 500-600 goal?  Does it make more sense for a daily to just do an engine overhaul, slap some -7s on it and enjoy a bit more reliable power?  Has anyone driven a mine's overhauled and tuned engine?  I know they certainly don't approach the power numbers that you drag monsters do down under, but for daily street usage, I just want it to be fun and healthy.
