yeah i'd prob sell for about 200, duno was keen on just keeping it and one day make a propper simulator thingy (aka when i move out)

Yeah if I get one it'll be for a proper cockpit setup, I'll probably just pay for a decent ready made one though

yeah like its alright on the desk where i can play - but thing is the brake actually has some force behind it like a brake pedal should and pushes away on carpet, plus you cant really change gears hard with the manual mode while its only mounted to a slick desk just slides right off it.

Propper cockpit setup would be WAY better

Gooby pls

I made one years ago, has a G25 wheels setup and a glass backed race seat. I loved it for rally games on the PS3, even got some stage records. You are correct, the pedal and wheel force can be higher than what you would expect from a car in similar situations.

Anyone looking for a nice setup on a strong frame with wheels, the G25 and seat, let me know, I want to sell it. No room in the house for it anymore. :/

Haha not sure. Its a year old, so not sure what versions are out now etc

Good fun

So what are your plans for the rebuild leroy?

replace everything thats broken :P

the only significant changes are increased compression from new pistons, forged H rods, adjustable cam gears (2) so that it can be adjusted lol, and hopefully a little bit of porting and other little tasks (bigger openings on oil squirters, stronger springs, balanced engine) add up to a better engine. Im doing a bit of research now in lightened pulleys but over driving is an issue and theres too many version of the FWD SR20s to get confused.

ie. VE oil pump is apparently bigger and better than DE, but while bigger than GTiR it flows less. some VE lightened pulleys require small grinding to fit on DE, but require spacer on GTir and DE (or something, im getting confused with it all). Wish I had all the parts and just see what fits, whats lightest and whats strongest.

hooray for engine rebuild and mi-goreng diet time!

ah if you didn't know though, win sam @ glen waverley has the cheapest instanoodles i've found. its just next to rock kung if you're wondering

but mi goreng is disgusting. but at $10/box, really cant beat that for cost cutting.

dat Daytona feeling.

Mt Waverly instanoodles, eh? I thought living in Balaclava was bad, new restaurants all the time, wanting to try most places. Clayton and surrounding suburbs got so many places its hard to even try a small % of them.

    • Also sorry to hear this @DanielStone - I remember @SmoothLine well, he was around for a very long time and was one of the original members of this site.  God Speed Matt. Thoughts with his family and friends.
    • Nice car! Looking at your GTS; makes me wonder why I bought a GTS-t... Everything has been changed anyway. I should have just started with a non turbo model.
    • Rear doors central locking wiring removed and cleaned. See the first 8sec video of when it’s filled with river silt. its a snip of what I’m up against. front and rear doors complete now. Maybe another day removing carpet and bits and pieces. Then the re assembly begins. 🤙 att.DqweJqhY5MZiZYQDVMhn3LtvdD1RBZ7TBG4f2s7W1zM.mp4 att.lFuN22MZEowqCbFAXoDw009r2gHL76ChMVfxMfBX-uk.mp4
    • There aren't boost creep issues, it's not engineered around the restriction of the cats but if you haven't tuned the engine a full decat + exhaust can flow enough air to run off the end of the OEM load scales and you will get a pretty substantial reduction in ignition timing as a result. I recommend using DFCO, avoiding ignition cut limiters, and avoiding popcorn tunes along with running a cat unless you enjoy a perpetually soot-covered and potentially burnt bumper.
    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
