  • First thing is first! Oxer and I bought tickets to the America's last night. I'm only over for two weeks, he is there for ten. Will be staying in California for the majority of my trip it seems.
    Over the fucking moon to finally be heading back, will have been exactly two years since the last trip too.

    Anyway, took a photo of Lucy after dark tonight as I got into Ballarat super fucking late.

    Pretty happy with the lowlight capabilities of my camera and glass.
    This is freehand too, would have come out much better with a tripod.

    I need to take more proper photos this year I have decided. Might make the effort to go to events... I don't have Facebook, so I don't know what events are on or when, but will try and make the effort. Will also take a tonne of potatoes in America.

    Not this weekend but the next we start the move into the new place. I've got to seal the garage floor that weekend so hoping to have that sorted as soon as possible so I can start to get shit in there and it setup.

    • Camber plates arrived on Friday, as well as the new barrel from Whitehorse for the front RS.

      We started moving into the new house over the weekend. I got three coats of satin clear epoxy down on the floor of the garage to seal it on Saturday, by Sunday I could walk on it and am very happy with how it looks. Have to wait till next Saturday before I can start putting my parts, tools and wheel collection in there.

      I'll grab some photos over the next couple of days and put them up here. So damn happy that I now have a legit workspace.

      • Looks so clean with the Audi wheels.

        • So, officially moved in 95% last night. The last 5% is bringing the wheels and seats over to the garage. Anyway, to pictures!

          Parked out front.

          This is the new house. So baller. Looks like a small cottage from the outside, inside it is plush as all fuck.

          And to the bit that really matters! The garage.

          IMG_0276 by Sebastien Peek, on Flickr

          Double garage. I basically get the entire roller door section plus a bit to the left, but my sister gets some of it for her dance studio.

          Just waiting on getting some power points installed and the light setup sorted. Once that is done, I'll be organising some benches and sorting out buying some new tools etc. New tools will probably happen after America trip.

          Can't park Lucy in there until Saturday unfortunately, but not sure if I will until I get back from Adelaide's DOVW trip.

              If I had seen this I probably should of asked you to go to MCM last Saturday.

                  I highly doubt you'll want to drive an extra hour and a half to park outside while I'm not around...

                  I have moved all the stuff from the old house into the garage as of last night. I think this weekend will be the first weekend Lucy will get some stuff done to her.

                  I'll hopefully get the Brides re-installed. I also have a few tidbits I need to buy before the new front struts arrive.

                  • Got word from Jay at Broadway Static that there has been a bit of a delay with the custom setup for Lucy that I ordered and that he is getting into contact with their machinist. I didn't realise they were going to have to custom make me a set to fit the current 5" springs!

                    Anyway, rumour has it that there was a nice purchase made on the weekend. What that is, it'll be joining Lucy in the garage once I organise transport.

                    • Brides re-installed today, feels good.

                      Might as well order the new rear hubs so I can install the -5 camber plates when they arrive...

                      • Put in some work today. There's fuck all to do here in Ballarat so figured I'd make the most of a day off the gym.

                        Got a picture of the Bride seats back in.

                        IMG_0290 by Sebastien Peek, on Flickr

                        So, what work did I actually do? Well, I got the -5 camber plates installed at the rear finally. I pulled my finger out and just figured I'd do them. The result, well, I am more than happy.

                        I then got her back on the floor after making sure there was air in both rears. I feel like the rear that debeaded isn't holding air as well as it should. I also hung the S|W Australia x House of Stance banner in my garage. Gave her a bit of a wash too.

                        Parked up out the front. Running the Q5 wheels while I drill the new barrel for the front.

                        I'm super happy with how the RS' fit. They fit as I originally wanted them too when I first built them. Over the moon.

                        IMG_0312 by Sebastien Peek, on Flickr

                        Now to just get the fronts to sit just as well. Still waiting on Broadway Static coils to arrive. Once they're here, engine raise and front notch will happen.

                        • Looks great man! After you get the stance settled, gotta get yourself an R32 front.

                            I do have an r32 front hiding somewhere, but not sure if I'll run it just yet. I need to sort out a few other things up front though, some more parts will be ordered once I get back from America.

                                It's nothing special at the moment, when the front end is completely sorted, she'll be perfect.
