indeed yes it was a bit busy a week or so ago. So got the GTR alignment all done, I thought it would be easy enough to do as it was done last year so everything should have been moveable but cars being cars there was always going to be one eh ? Anyhow, everything that could be adjusted from factory was indeed adjusted and then it was just down to testing it.
Quick recap. Sometimes the car had a tendency to crab left under braking and while it wasn't causing big issues it certainly wasn't by design. So, new tyres fitted, alignment (re)done just testing required.
As luck would have it a beautiful sunny day came along and like a child at the beach I just dove (drove??) straight in. Fabulous day, air con on, sunnies on RB26 singing away and on first drive everything was working just nicely. Bearing in mind this is the cars first proper run since being laid up for Winter, tyre fitting and alignment aside. Brakes seemed fine, engine seemed fine, TEINs rock solid but not clanking so I guess working ok. Anyhows, plooting along a favourite road of mine, going a lot further down the road than I thought I would be going I discovered they had over the winter re-laid a rather large section of road and now instead of resembling the moons surface the road is billiard table smooth. Ya dancer!
While driving south I passed an old style iron bridge and I've always thought that pictures with bridges and cars in them are just amazing. So on the homeward journey back I managed to grab a couple of snaps though obviously I still cannot take good pictures so here they are.
and from the other side
