    There ended up being quite a few people out there. I only caught up with a few from here. I took my car out for a bit but a stock hachi isn't much fun on a big track like QR. I spent a bit of time on the skid pan but now the bug has bitten again and I've decided to do what I said I'd never do to the car, tune it up for some skiddy fun.

    Really Luke? You enjoy rolly-polly understeer?

    I might have to wash some sand out of my vagina before I go back to QR, once I sort my suspension of course.

    My car understeers quite a bit. But at the time the car was being built I requested some nice soft suspension. Now I've decided I want a car that handles well and goes faster. I should never have gone to QR. hahaha

    Update time.

    Gave the engine a hone, new set of piston rings, big end bearings and a timing belt. All toyota except for the bearings which are Kings.










    Also added these,





    Aaaand a new set of coilovers





    These are overhauled N2 circuit, Bilstein coilovers with Cusco cambertops and Cusco 8Kg springs.

    Looking good Josh. What spring rate were your old coilovers? You'll have to tell me if the braces make much difference. I've always wondered.
    I see dumb people. Driving around like regular people. They don't see each other. They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're dumb.

    I think they're 8kg. But cant be sure.

    The front end feels much tigher and more predictable. But it's hard to say.

    Got a wheel alignment at Fulcrum steerers were 18mm toe in. Steers much better now.

    I have a mate who used them on his AE92 Levin. He said they make a big difference. It is a WTAC car though.
