^ HD pics of crash, sad days, haha...

I see a camera... did footage survive? Still sucks though, man.

Fair enough. Still got some boyracer funtimes for me left heheh. SC V8 though will be naice. Have you actually been in Leigh's yet? Was that the turning point ahahah

Nah, not as yet, but always wanted a massive power blown V8 and with the second kid on the way, stepping up to a 5 star ANCAP falcon is always going to the a good idea.

To be honest i'd prefer to strapa PD blower to a VE SVZ and style it myself, but it will probably be the same or cheaper to go the legal GS route

back from gold coast after an epic weekend, all is good apart from when I smashed my head on the bottom of the pool diving in drunk, some hair fell out and sore / scabby now :(

do you have any idea how lucky you are? :0

2nd kid on the way aye! congrats! Yep 5star ANCAP ftw and always gonna be the cheaper option for a new car with PD V8 I do miss the turbo 'rush' feeling but PD V8 as a daily is awesome, cruise below <2k RPM and still miles ahead of people taking off at the lights lol

Yeah I kinda didn't think about it until I got home, could have been pretty screwed up if I had to go to hospital / knocked myself out or something - after it happened surprisingly didn't bleed that much which was good.

None of that looks appetizing

    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.
    • New rear lights, filler panel sprayed, cleaned and back together    before, during, after shots 😍
    • 100% is gyprock, I agree. Slip of the keyboard. Haha! I left my indicator bulbs out to save a bit of weight.
