$5.53 and a bundle of my bum fluff.

You win

[blah_blah]

Butters is down to 1:34 at winton in his pulsar:

(1:38)

Notorious SR20VE:

but just cause I want a choice in spoilers and trailing arms and underbody braces and splitters, I should just go out and buy a civic?

Good time

Curious what's his mods list and tyres run?

Was reading an article about John Bowe winning the 12hr Bathurst (2010) with a BMW 335i, in the wet. Gained 2mins 40secs over all the Evo's who placed after. and he quoted to have said something about AWD not being all that.

I'm not having a go at AWD, just thought it was interesting. Havent track anything other than FWD, I should give it a shot. maybe hire one of the tampered motorsport cars sometime

[Leroy Peterson]

How close is the Pulsar suspension to P11 Primeras? They're very similar cars and there's heaps of stuff around for Primeras, might be an option?

P11 is different. N15 is same as B14. N14 is different from N15 and GTiR. N16 is forever alone.

Good time

Curious what's his mods list and tyres run?

he runs cheap slicks (cheaters)

Hasnt had it dynod in a while, but got 290kw at the fronts on 20psi. The dyno has some controversy surrounding it regarding the humidity sensor, but its still a lot of power.

SR20DET from a U12 Bluebird. full forged, runs over -3 camber at the front.

speaking of awesome pulsars... guy recently got under 2mins in a 83kw N15 at phillip island

runs semis and -4.7 camber in the fronts haha

Hmm, how to top that?

$5.55, a fish tank, a bead braclet and a broken intercooler hose clamp. Not a final offer.

Sup kents....

I'm back from QLD, where I managed to enter a competition called "Move in front of the car sitting on my rear quarter so I can merge before my lane ends"

I won the game.

The judges of the competition were QLD Police officers with hand held laser beams, pew pew!

Pulled into a side street and given my prize. 71 in a 60.

Jointly bitched with them about how crappy Hyundai i30's are to drive.

Was doing 74 but they knocked it into the lower bracket because I was "extremely cooperative"

Any idea what I can expect in the way of demerits? There's nothing listed on the notice about demerits... Does QLD not have points for low range speeding? Which means that nothing gets added to my Vic points down here?

Also, QLD is living in the 90's... the only way to pay is "In Person" or "By Mail (Cheque or Bank Cheque)" *sigh* sif no BPAY option

[UNR33L]

kinda behind but surely ya fog lights have a switch Leigh?

Yeah but I mean if I can't turn them on I may as well do something with them?

phaggots...

these f**kwits that do prinny runs are 90% of why we all have trouble with the cops

It's already f**ked, only race because cops are f**kwits get caught for foglights, nek minit xxxkm/h down springvale road out of anger *insert f**k the police here*

inb4 dreamboats have a go at me saying they've never gone over the speed limit or raced on public roads

Leigh does.

I live my life a 1/4 mile at a time

At a track like Bathurst wouldn't be surprised the 335i's going quicker than Evo's. Even most of the big tracks like Sandown or Phillip Island

[bluejeans]

If you won division 1 in lottery you might as well buy an R35 to put the seats in

[Miguelone]

Are those seats as uncomfortable as normal 35 seats?

of course AWD is an advantage, that's why evo's do sooo at well grass roots time attack and circut racing.

however AWD is not as big an advantage as having JOHN BOWEWD...

[Birds]

AWD tend to get fked up on the long straights where splitting torque is less than advantageous...

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

clearly, which is why GTR's do sooo well...

[R-SPEC]

What's a tuff/reliable 80s/90s 4x4 preferably 2 door?

Budget ~$3k might stretch for something extra clean/lower mileage

Any suggestions?
