That'd be Marty, in Michael's 33R :) Michael's profile: Mihalis

Did you keep him behind you? :P

Cheers Matt,

ha nah i let him pass on the overtaking lane, i dont think i was holding him up too much (hopefully, sorry if i did) although i bogged down pretty bad in one of the tight hairpins as i didnt go back to 1st, was my first run up there though so i was a ltitle hesitant also as i wasnt sure what was coming... had a great time though.

Thanks for the comments guys,...

I'll have more Pics up soon > you might find interesting :whistling:

Interesting that...

* More people than ever had not done Mac Pass before > OK 'fess up!

* I nearly coerced an R35 owner that I met yesterday morning at Maccas to join the group > Pics to come.

* Juz has now revealed himself to want to take over as the Prince of Mac Pass cruises now that Princess doesn't own a Skyline anymore > and he wants to run them responsibly

* Lot's of SAUers want to become Members and reap the advantages > so I know you want to get your forms in asap

* The ladies in the above Pic love to get a close look at anything that's "cute", "baby-like", "defenceless" > like Nismo valve caps > attracting more attention than a Shitzu/Maltese Terrier-X at Bondi Beach

* Attendees have great pride in their cars and they all looked superb on the day > the only exception being cpd who sat on his :whistling:

Well this is how our (Maria's and mine) day started...

minding our own business at 8am (an hour before the Casula meetup)...

eating Maccas at Blaxland 7-Eleven when...

2x NACA Ducts appear in my rear vision mirror and park right behind me...

I can only imagine what the 35 would be like to drive up the pass. The bends are quite tight in places which would work against the 35 with its weight and size, but with roads that smooth, and its torque it would demolish it.

Can't beat a third pedal for driver involvement though :)

Sorry! :nyaanyaa:

Yeah. I could tell I was holding you guys up, lol.

Me neither, next one will be awesome. I like the idea of having a Macquarie Pass cruise every three months or so.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
