Wear your nicest clothes

I beginning to think the front bar is too stiff. Haven't done a Summit Rd run yet, but I think it'll be a handful up there. Oh well, will make me a more dynamic driver ha. Might leave the stock rubber in the end links just to get a bit of flex in there, you should see how this car slaloms! Will have to get some outside footage of it. EBC reds seem quite decent. I just picked up some more TRW pads from repco (24bucks on staff price, good friends) and they are perfect for road tires on the track. Fluid was lacking anti-boil qualities however. Would have to step up a notch once some R888's get on this car, the sway bars are begging for wider, more sticky rubber than the direzza 195's I have on the back currently. My god does it oversteer like never before though. So thrilling. And yes, thanks, this set-up is something I have been dreaming of since I first saw E30 rally/autocross videos on youtube 3-4 years ago.

Would be much, much cheaper to buy camber plate from the States. All the ones I tried to get in Nz were custom made and about 1000 dollars.. Ground Control plates, here, have caster adjustment as well.. (helps the high speed stability)

A very high percentage of people in the middle east have 6 figure incomes. Then there are their hordes of bosses with 7 figure incomes. Then there are the Owners of the many, many corporations with 8 figure incomes. Then there is the Royal Family... So they can spend their money on what every they want. Heeeaps to go around! But the taste. Oh god the taste is terrible.

That Patick Snijers video has been posted in this thread about 18 hours ago... But so worth a repost. Watch it all the time.

That's a good price for a full day with hospo. and you get to battle M3's etc. Awesome.

fine I'll post the full shot! 1/400 shutter speed wasn't fast enough.. (and a girl was taking the pics) Going about 115kph over a stock bank. going with different X-T-ream situation for the proper calender hopeful now though.

Ok, just went and took some shots. But they haven't turned out like I hoped. Plan B was better anyway. That'll come next week.. Sneaky peak!

Great day in chch. Off to take some action shots (Ollie will know what I'm talking about )

Hell I'm a fan. Screams 'american market' though. (Will american 'round the cones' style drifting ever die?!) Can't wait to see some best motoring crazy japanese guys put it up against the tried and true of their car culture on the touge.

Nice! Great noise for sure for sure. Those brakes sure sound like they are worth it

I have found nice write ups of people in their garage replacing seals etc. They had gas on tap however.. But yes, Koni's for the win?!

I've always wondered this. It has something to do with the more complicated routing if it came straight off the chassis to the caliper. Would have to go through the boot ha. DAMN OUR MASSIVE BOOTS!

I'd instantly take dibs on the roof, and sleep with my hands hanging down the sides against the glass. Win!

325 bukkers hopefully Will take 2-3 weeks to get here however...

Go to repco and get the 16mm adjustable Whiteline rear bar, can hook you up a great price, will make a hell of a difference, see my project thread for reviews on it Keep the front bar stock. Trust me on this, I have just put in a 24mm front and it's very excessive for road use...

Should be called Bryndwr shops haha. Miles from actual Fendalton And my black bumper stripes devastate that whole tech2!

Bilsteins are superior in a couple of ways: A: All their dampers have the same internal cartridges, from bottom of the range, to their Nascar dampers. B: They are user serviceable. Koni's are not, have to send them away. Now, what were you going to go into?? Those are the only advantages ^

Tech 1 vs Tech 2!! I was coming back from the Motosoc trackday (no I didn't have a drive - settle down in the back) and saw this again. As I dropped to one knee to take a pic with the SLR, the battery died. f**k. Went back to my house, about 100m away, grabbed the ol' point and shoot and took these Pulitzer Prize winning shots.

You'll certainly burn out the clutch packs in the LSD. E30 LSD's are only good with fat rear sways, otherwise once one wheel loses a little contact with the road it'll start single spinning...

Oh yes, forgot about the internet. Everything you will every need to know is on this thing, so many forums. Browse through random sections of Flickr for hours to get ideas and inspiration. Want to learn how to take photos of saaaay fireworks? Google that sh*t. Or proper settings for Star trails? Bam, google Now it's getting into summer I have big star trail shots planned... OoooOoOoooo

That's what she said! Hur hur.

Photography is something you shouldn't need to take a course in if you have any wit. Practise makes perfect. I've hadn't done any photography untill I bought a Canon 450D as a impulse buy last year. Now I can say I take primo photos, just from thinking about framing what's in the shot 'artisticly' and taking practise shots before hand to get the settings right for the lighting (Auto mode is for the weak, Full Manual ftw) The 450D is a great camera, only really limited by the stock lenses. Especially the 75-300mm lens, it's useless at past 200mm of zoom, very blurry, would be hard to get great shots of car racing with it..

Can only say that I run Konis similar to the race series ones, and they are damn good, I have them valved to match my spring rates and they have road holding ability like nothing I have every experienced. And I love how easy they are to adjust.

I don't really get hangovers anymore, just mild/medium headaches - even after the biggest nights. The last one I had was the definition of bad hangover. It was after the 7th form formal and at the after party was a case of kristov (that cheap vodka) You can guess what happened... Woke up in the back of my 323 wagon - prepared a matress the day before - with my friend next to me, it was 35degrees AT LEAST in the car, had a headache so bad it was blurring my vision. My mate was in the same state.. Drove home and threw up bile for hours. Then tried to go for a run. No luck. Cool story bro.
