Welcome back Michele, long time no post.

I missed Mark and yourself at the recent track day. Knowing the times Mark can get with the daily car, he'd probably would have been sticking to the Evo that took fastest car of the day.

It would have been fun to catch up with everyone, we race with Michael at other events, he goes well. SAU do a great job in giving people a taste of the track who may never have taken that step otherwise. Hillclimbs are good for getting some fun with only a fraction of the wear and tear and helps you perfect the standing start. When are we getting you back out to the track

PS sorry for the hijacked thread :blush:

Ooooo got any more high res pictures of the blue and white 32 there in your signature Michele, it looks amazing!

Come have a look at Wheels, Mark didn't like the black bonnet, so its blue now. Its looking good, he can't wait to get good tyres on it, but its going good considering.

When are we getting you back out to the track

Car is track ready, tyres a bit worn. Was looking at getting a set of the new federal true semi slicks, but now with the SAU/RENEW competition I need to stick with the street tyres to stay in class. I'm not sure what some of the other cars just ahead of me were running, but I know most of them were either full race cars or had serious mods and were running in club class. For the day (remembering SAU didn't do anything to promote the competition so many didn't know to go in a class) I was point leader despite blowing an intercooler pipe and loosing out on most of session 1 and all session 2.

Are you guys still doing a lot of hillclimbs? or moving more to true races? I just don't have the funds for even low level racing.

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
