Greg, Is your cutoff switch near the battery? Couldn't you have battery + to cutoff switch, cutoff switch to alternator and to whatever else it is going to? Or was that what was keeping your car running on?

I see you have parked your car beside your other vehicle. HA! Looks good, I reckon a bit more tire wouldn't hurt. Besides, it is only 20 more mm.

Very good looking car mate. Holds it's own in the photos with the gtr. Well done.

Thanks for the explanation.

Looking good, what do you use to bend/shape the tunnel?

Much cleaner Stony, very well done on the wiring.

Looks good, but personally prefer the original dash. I got mine recovered/rebuilt. They did a new vinyl wrap, think it looks great. Love the door cards though.

Love the work mate, intercooler looks insane and MASSIVE. Well done.

I haven't had a chance to work on the Z much as it requires a bit of money. So being doing this instead (as well as work on the shed) http://the510realm.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=24424&p=203134#p203134

How do you stay off the boost in a turbo charged car Stony? Do you need some medication for that? Valium or something? I can't seem to keep my right foot behaving behind any cars, yet alone a high powered monster.

Looking great David.

DONT TOUCH IT! Just drive it, ha.

Well done mate! Glad to see you are enjoying a porsche again. Is this one going to stay how it is or does that depend on how the datsun performs as a track car?

That is seriously cool, congrats.

WOW. Looking great.

Still shaking my head at how impressive cool this is. Very jealous and proud at the same time. Well done mate.

Looking great! Is the aluminised tape to direct air flow?

Well done mate, now you need to get to the track and drive it so you convince yourself not to sell.

Mike, That looks a hundred times better. I wasn't a fan of your rear wing but figured it was function over form. This wing looks cool. Brad

My mistake, I didn't even notice they weren't classics untill you said. Sorry.

Was having a look on their website and they seem to have two specifications, Street and Race. Essentially it looks like the race version are more function over form and street vice versa. I think I would end up ordering street version too, as I couldn't justify the small decrease in weight saving over the extra maintenance. Options - Race, Street Center Caps - No, Yes Swiss* - Yes, No Steel Inserts* - Yes, No Hardware - Grade 8, ARP * can be swapped between versions Center Caps Race version wheels are not machined to accept center caps as most tracks will not allow you to run them. The center forgings are then machined to be hub centric. Street version wheels are machined larger to accept our billet center caps that are hubcentric. Center forgings and center caps are vehicle specific as hub sizes vary. Swiss To remove unneeded weight additional holes are machined in between the lug nut wells and assembly hardware. This process makes cleaning a little more difficult. Inserts Lug nut seating areas are normally machined into the forged aluminum centers. However, in conditions such as racing where the wheels will be taken on and off many times stainless steel inserts add better life to the seats as well as a great surface to adhere the lug nuts too. Hardware Race version wheels are machined to accept grade 8 cadium hardware as it's less expensive and does the job fine. Street version wheels are machined to accept ARP stainless steel hardware as it will provide a better finish over time. Wheels utilizing the cadium bolts are machined to accept the nuts on the outside/face of the center where with the ARP bolts the nuts are located on the inside of the center.

So they are street specification?

Wow! Very cool, wish I had a mechano set like that. HA.

Looking very nice. Well done.

Can't wait to see what the black looks like. I have always loved the ccw wheels. They are the wheel that I have always said I will use "Eventually", just never got around to it. HA. I hope it works out for you this season Mike, would be a shame to see the car go, but understandable if it does.
