Hey Guys,

I have been on the forums for a while and had planned on saying hi earlier but have been a bit bipolar as to whether I was selling or keeping my 95 R33 GTR VSPEC.

My car is pretty standard save for a set of -7's and an upcoming PFC/EBC install.

I plan on keeping things pretty simple with the car, keeping it fairly stock and clean (as clean as I can)

Anyway if you guys are planning a cruise or a brew (I am in Merewether) let me know.

Cheers,

Dean

sounds good man.

we do need another piss up... maybe after the track day next week :)

Yep we all need to catch up as its been a while!

Welcome in mate, clean white skylines FTW!

yea we do need to organise some drinks again...

any ideas for dates or venues? maybe something like we did ages ago, and meet up somewhere for a beer and a feed, and maybe a small cruise or something???

I've gotta get moved etc which will take me out for the next few weeks.... PLUS the gearbox has to come out of my car after the track day too so ill have to see how we go time wise, ideally for us it would be around 17/11 or somewhere like that...

sounds good around that time.

might be working, well see

We have two weeks off to set up the house etc (Was the time of for SAU NATS but no kesh for that with the new house)...

Did someone say drinks?

Any weekend but the 17/11 is good

Ill be in Port Macquarie with wifey that weekend

What's wrong with gearbox Matt? You broken something again?

Jarred should be an expert at house stuff by now

Nice 33 as well, I'll keep an eye out for it

Just over a month till my blacks. Cannot wait to start driving the thing. Hopefully ill have it all complete by then!

The car is meant to be finished getting paint repairs next week.

As soon as its out, its getting booked in for:

- Cat welded in

- Flanged Screamer Pipe

- Varex Muffler

- New intake pipe to airbox & new hotside cooler pipe

- Few gauges wired up

And if I have enough left over

17x9 +22 Enkei RPF1 wrapped in Federal 595 255/40r17 :D

Also anyone got any recommendations for the pipe work I need done? (local business around newcastle)

- Weld in the cat

- Make a new diff back exhaust pipe to go to the varex / basic fitting of the muffler

- Cut the plumback and add flanges + a new little screamer pipe

- Hotside cooler pipe (to hole in body)

- Turbo > airbox pipe

Also the wiring of the varex & three gauges (water temp/ oil temp/ oil press).

One person ive asked can do it all for about $1000. Does that seem reasonable?

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
