I've got 2 smoked gauges and I have no problems in daylight the 1 is the new auto gauge 1 is old version..
Project Greenstone.
Just dont take her off the road for too long bud.
Is this just cause I got lucky up great north and managed to get my nose in front LOL. That was a totally lucky one.
Any joy with trading the 2 turbos ?
Dont sell that Celica short bud, she is amazing for a little two liter !! No luck there, while I was waiting for some krag you were giving me one up the pipe !
No, no luck on the two turbo`s.
It`s fine, I`ll fit the TO4z to big mama and do something obscure with the little one...like having it on my desk and occasionally twirling the exhaust wheel for fun.......... 😉

LOL you not supposed to spin the shaft on those turbos hey. Fucking expensive but nice paperweight. I am sure the GT3076R will be an easy one to sell and get your money back, should be more demand for that than the T04z though.
Eish I need to get more out of the Celica when you do the 6+2. mmmm put the Meth Injection in and up the boost slowly until BANG then go back 0.1 Bar 😂
looking good man!
what it set u back for the recovering of the wheel? also have one that needs to be done
Riekert, R850.00 including vat. Speedline in JHb.
Taking my ZX and Momo in today as well.
Jiss, but it`s cold in Jhb. this morning !!

damn man... it bloody -5 here in Bloemfontein at 7am
Well, I had a bit of a brown spot down under moment coming home tonight....Foot flat around the Kempton roundabout to Benoni to get past a slow little golf and my car takes off and will not slow down !!
This bloody RB takes off through the corner with the throttle wide open and I`m trying to hook the pedal back up. Hit the ignition switch super fast and she slows...
Friggin carpet was bundled under the pedal and held the accelerator wide open...
First time that has ever happened to me....jirre, this car is strong !!!!!
Hahahaha that must have been quite a feeling! It's happened to me once before...its amazing how quick the car feels in that situation.
Close call there man....
😮 Glad you managed to get her to slow down bud...
Mental Note to self Check my Mats
FINALLY !!!!! I got a package today containing my brake upgrade !! Ok, so it`s only the calipers for now, discs I have from racing days but bells will now have to be made..
Once the brakes are complete I will give her a tentative run around Zwartkops.. 8)


These are all 4pot Brembo Mono blocks which I prefer to the usual side bolted jobbies.
From a Porsche something or another.
The rears are also 4 pot but sized appropriately for use on the rear .The fronts are just humungus mothers !!
Wow those must have cost a small fortune.
Look nice thou, will be a huge braking power gain
Not really...It`s who you know in life that makes things easier... 😉 There is a blue Porsche Turbo in the shop that has extensive rust under the battery tray . Unfortunately the left side torsion mount is also under this area. I am fixing this in lue of the brake calipers for the client. :!:
Not a bad deal then.... Is it a direct bolt on??
Will the Porsche stop with the Nissan brakes 🙂 Just cover them with those clip on Autostyle covers 😂
Nice stuff Barry, Did Ronaldo come see you ?
Yea, he did John...7 days late. But he finally popped round. May go his route, depends.
Yo BK
sorry for the late reply, thanx for letting me feel her again.
im more inlove with her now.
i must say you showing her the respect and giving her the treatment she deserves.
She looks the same but it doesnt feel the same, I like the ride very precise and its remarkably responsive at altitude.
car look amazing and i love the subtle changes.
i enjoyed the visit and i must say you have a stunning workshop with lots of toys, esp the Datsun 120Y.
Then the alfas and then the imports s14.
Enjoy see you again!
