It's not, nor has it ever been, nor will it ever be, cool to drink any beverage from a f**kin jar

Shit no! That would be like following a trend... Might do something original instead like collecting nikes :P

If anyone is keen going on a spirited drive tomorrow morning south east with a mate that just brought a lotus.

Hit me up if you are

There's a meet at sky high mt dande tomorrow. Friend and I are going

Spent entire yesterday removing shit to check torque on head studs. ARP specify 90ftlb.. Blueprint says 80.... Sad

Then checked them...one was 80, some were over 90 and some were WAAAAAAAAAY less, like one full turn of torque wrench off.

Sure is a good day for a drive today!

Well if the head lifted one/some of them have become loose?

I don't usually enjoy watching racing on tv but weather is just asking to sit on the couch with a Kilkenny or 6.

(After walking 5km around a park)

Bought some Asics Kayano Evo today (so f**king melbourne wanker) holy shit these things are absolutely streets ahead of nike. I think a 25 year relationship is about to be tested...

Are you running in them or just casual? Have been using Kayanos as running shoes for years, updating them every other year. Such a good shoe. I wear them as casual / around the house for their comfort. It's like Jap cars versus Italian; Nike have the style, but the execution and tech isn't there.

Actually this brings me to a question for dezz.

Michael, as someone who buys limited edition Air Max 90's, are they of the same half-assed qualty as the standard stock or do they actually make an effort for these?

(The paint job in particular, which I understand won't be hugely obvious on your red and blues ones)

Dezz phillip island on the bike awesome fun, crazy speeds when you're going around a corner and look down at the speedo

Did miss not having a front windscreen though, 'sports' bike clearly more ideal for that sort of thing..

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
