    Yeah there were plenty of other cars, mostly being skylines as it was an SAU dyno day. However still a large variety from euro, muscle, Australian and imports

    Haha thanks man

    Update soon, I'm testing out a complete 3" intake pipe kit that will have to reduce down to the turbo intake of 1.75"
    Ordered all my piping/bends ect and hoping they arrive by this weekend so I can start as it will be a bitch of a job where the comp cover is
    However if all goes to plan it's going to be very free flowing and hopefully get more sound out of it

    Well finally received all the items for the intake, but time constraints with cleaning car for 100mm and vits will mean won't be until week after I will actually get to do anything about it

    In other news I have purchased some very very rare wheels from Yahoo, fitment will be 8mm wider rears and will need to space front out 5mm to achieve current specs. or I may just leave them as they are. These are on the hush hush until they are on however

    Well update, did actually have a few days off before 100mm and got some work done on the piping for the intake, it's all welded now, needs brackets made up and to be grind down and painted. Gave the car a wash/polish/wax and attended 100mm
    quick pic of how it sat near KW stand




    Anyway Saturday night this is what happened on my way home, missed VITS because of it and super devastated
    Gearbox bearing gone, and unsure whether gears are damaged (assuming they are in any case) Sourcing a 2nd hand box is the cheapest and easiest way to get it all fixed

    That's what is left of the bearing
