Nail and head spring to mind.
I have had 4 instructed track sessions and a couple of skid pan sessions and rest assured i will be having a lot more.
I have a friend in the biz too who i am going to ask to come to some trackdays with me and show me the ropes.
Former thundersaloon champ and snett instructor for a while so should know a thing or two and hopefully will be able to pass on some of it.
By "too powerfull" I did no mean full stop i just meant for my capabilities. I have no idea what that sort of power feels like or how to control it so i will be the proverbial girl to start with.
Realy looking forward to it all though, its been far too long.

How are things going work wise mate? from sound of things you are not going too have time to fart let alone enjoy the track for a while..
Well the skyline is gone for good But how cool is my little replacement!!!!! 7lbs 12oz of pure joy....

The final part of the puzzle arrived last week. Not the GT35 as discussed but this may do the job I think.

Can I ask a silly question, whats the benefit of having the holes round the edge of the turbo intake ? Cooling ?

Looks an awesome bit of kit though mate !!!!

This is anti surge machining designed to stop compressor surge at low boost. Although there is a general concensus that it does nothing at all. lol Jay still had it done because it looks cool and does not adversly affect anything.

Delivered to Gary today thanks to a lift from our friendly neighbourhood recovery man BenH.
First time i have had a look underneah the car and initial impressions are good
Seems to be a nice solid shell with chassis rails still in tact.
She desperately needs the paint sorting but was great to see Gary finally geting his hands on her again after so long.

Already dreaming of that sound again LOL
