And i have to organised a transport for the 9th for Mondello this is the biggest problem now as i dont have a trailer and a tow bar yet

Ah man , i remember a few months ago , i was in a petrol station in Dublin beside Joe Duffy motors. It was about 7 in the morning, i had been awake all night and i was waiting on someone to come and pick me up in an E39 M5 to start an awesome 6 day trip across Europe taking in the Ring and Spa.
It was a cold and miserable morning , i was hungover as fuck, and nervous like a bastard at the the thoughts of the next few days.
Next thing , i hear something that shouted above the clatter of the diesel shitboxes that made up the majority of the morning commute , and this sublime brown Vento rolls into the forecourt , surfboard on the roof , and sounding as mean as a mother fucker with the Vr6 engine up front. For the few minutes i spent looking at it , it made me forget about the cold , the exhaustion, and the anxiousness i was feeling.
I just want to say , thank you

slithertooth

Cool man, regular gear oil will do ye
75w90, 80w90, 85w90, 75w85 all 4 will do as they are pretty much sameness. As long as the gear oil conforms to at least GL-4 (GL-5 is fine too)
Ok today was a good day i blocked hicas my way proper custom hahaha

Was talking to you on Sunday night you shouldnt buy a cage get John Stone to make you one and while he's at it get him to cut out the boot floor them skylines are a bit on the obese side also just buy a hicas lockout bar they are not that expensive also a hydraulic hand brake they make drifting so much easier
Hicas is sorted (gone) allready and i fit driftworks hydro so this is done aswell
what u recn will be for the cage built

17-08-12, 03:38
what happened the extra lock arms??
Project is dead now something wrong with the engine it blowing oil to the intake from pcv and compression on 4 cylinders is around 60 psi only two cylinders keep 150psi
i think i am gonna break it and buy another one
simply-sideways
26-10-12, 13:09
Awh that sucks man.. Good luck in your next project :P
well have a new toy and its way faster than r33 updates soon i only fit wheels and seat and tested on mondello
