Hey Mario, Great meeting you on Sunday and as i said to you, surely you could have polished it some more :D:blush::D

Looked a treat on the day and made me wish my Prince was this good. Congrats on all of your efforts - a credit to all of your hard work and a delight to see in the flesh.......

I broke my nail too! its great to see so many young people to continue our passion.

Thanks mate, isnt good all of us there in the same place same time and knowing that other places

in the world they do the same we do.

I will never forget my dad, and unfortunatly his words hurt me so much, he never believed my vision

i was only 16 years old!

Keep your true belief in your heart, not in your mind because the mind is changeable.

Mario.

It was good to see you mate, trust your belief in your heart, not in your mind as the mind is changeable,

My dad never saw my vision i was only 16 years old, but i still followed it that was 31 years ago!

Cheers

Mario.

i lost count of the amount of times my dad told me "cars are a money pit!" and "you'll never get that money back when you sell it" and called cars some financial term for modified cars to try and put me off.

no matter what anyone said, my passion still maintained it's momentum and is showing no signs of slowing down.

funnily enough, after 8 years my dad gets it. he even came to a drift practice to watch me and loved it. awesome moment!

My salute to you, never let go what you have in your heart, and thats not only for your cars.

My son is 11 and he was at the show yesterday, he went bananas with all those cars there he has every photo.

I will always support my little boy in whatever his heart is set upon.

Mario.

Ahh Jason I presume is the fella I was talking to about your M35, passed you on the freeway :laugh:. The Prince looks even better on the freeway.

Hey mate, Yep that was me you were talking to! You would have also passed my M35 - the missus was driving it and telling me i was driving the Prince too fast. She was a little paranoid about driving the M35 (second time). Saw you coming up behind - and was always going to give the thumbs up! How long before you are in a M35?? >_<

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
