Sorry what I wrote previously probably came out a bit wrong,

 

We have some pretty new strict Anti hooning laws up here now and theses been a defiant increase in police laws enforcement for motorists around where I live. Its a long story but had a few run in's with the police nothing to serious until the last time where I was singled out in peak hour traffic and accused of speeding 110 in an 80, 30kmhr over the speed limit. He couldn’t prove to me that he was using radar. I know I wasn’t and I told him that I was being overtaken by traffic so why was I being selected? Not to mention I was only in a servo filling the car up 300mm down the road.  It didn’t go down well from there because It was his word against mine so then he proceeded to  write defects out on the car even though it was legal without any testing equipment in a grass paddock off the side of the road.

 

What I guess what I’m saying if I was driving my bulk stock VY commodore I am 100% know this wouldn’t have happened. Its not worth over $600 in fines and 6 license points just to drive legally modified car to work and back when you know your doing the right thing yet there’s a big misconception that modified car owners are hoons.

 

Now I have to go to court and prove that I wasn't and waist a heap of cash.

And some people wonder why the Cops have so many people that dislike them.

Let's hope the poor bikes can take the pressure off us 'hoons'.

Ah sorry to hear that mate.  Didn't want to detract from the purpose of the thread - which is your ride, so back to the goodstuff!

Hey Guys all good,

 

Unfortuantly its getting a bit crazy over here atm, Watching the news last night there are more laws that have just been past. It started with Anti hooning Laws, Then Anti bikie Laws now there are anti gang laws. I dont think im the only one seeing where this is heading? My dad rides bikes, and only recently purchused a new Triumph Daytona 675r, its the closest thing to having a race bike on the road and he gets pulled over every weeekend going for a ride so its not just the "bikies" and the "hoons" and the "gangs" that are being targeted

 

Anyways, Rob from racefab has just sent the Evo 3 Brembo conversion brackets so they should be here id image soon. I already have the brembos and everything reard to assemble. All I really need to do is to reassemble the rear trailing arms and install front and rear axels and the car is practically rolling again =) My buddies are getting tired of see it rust away on my parents driveway.

Well look what just turned up. Looks amazing and well fabricated. Too job rob

[GSRSOL]

sweeeeet...

I need those brackets, but I cant decide whether or not to get the whole rear trailing arms from racefab which have the mounts built in...

[EVL20T]

Does the racefab holes line up with the drum holes?
We are about 5mm out and thinking we need to elongate the drum holes

Had to elongate the hell out of the drum backing plate. The race fab bracket lined up perfectly with the trailing arm how well does the drum fit under the rotor? does it rub at all?

Quick update- Sadly the last 12 months I've been building the s15, however that phase has past and its now up for sale. I'm freeing up some money in that to continue for the gsr and to get a new daily.

Have you decided what turbo your gonna use? Didn't you buy a turbo that never arrived a while back?

Brake setup looks good

Depends on money and how much the S15 sells for. Yea I bought a Garrett GT3076r that never tuned up. Ebay and pay pal never gave my money back either. That was a few years ago. If I have the cash it will be a Garrett GTX3076r 0.86. If not it will be something cheap. I still need to finish up the Incar Lines before the the brake setup is complete. I'm looking for a doner CC lancer 4 door to strip for bits and pieces at the moment. missed out on one a few weeks ago for a few hundred dollars and was like damn it.

[jake]

S15 sold, baught a new VE SV6 daily and working on the gsr again. should be rolling again in the next few weeks, however the parts order has just been rolling into

 

[Dean_Vr4]

[jake]

Turbo cat approves. Injectors have turned up, all the fuel stuff will be here by the end of the week, Im hoping the rain keeps away this weekend!
