  1. Purchased new these seat rails mount to the standard floor positions in the R35 and fit the Recaro Profi SPG bucket seat. (and probably others) the rails come with the bar to allow seat to slide back and forth. Imported from Japan and Cost $300 Sell for $100 call Bill 0403076552 or [email protected]
  2. Brand new Bridgestone 2 rear tyres series 2 rears. I don't need them as i have sold my GTR. Half price , for quick sale Total $600 please call Bill 0403076552 or email <script cf-hash='f9e31' type="text/javascript"> /* */</script>
  3. 4 wheels - RE30s - Machine Black Limited. 2x RE30 19x 10in + 30 2x RE30 19x 11in +20 Imported new from Forged Performance in the USA for approx $6000 AUD These are a perfect fitment for an R35 - no spaces needed, the most brake clearance available, no wheel arch rubbing. These are the same wheels they used on there R35 time attack car. with Michelin slicks 29/67-19 S8A these have had 1 day of track use. (Purchased new they were $800 each) One of the tyres has some side wall damage. Two used spares can be supplied. Alternative tyres which would run well with these are the Hoosier slicks, Perili slicks or Trofeos or Toro R888. One centre cap is missing otherwise these strong lightweight racing wheels are 100% straight. Priced for quick sale - wheel with tyres $2500 I'm in Brisbane. 0403076552. [email protected] (ps also for sale is my R35 GTR 2011 - sold separately - See current add on carsales.com .)
  4. great Videos I will study Bathurst in detail. Thanks Bill
  5. I love these wheels. Looking forward to see them in the flesh.
  6. The similarity is we have both got the SAME fine with the SAME consequences in the SAME city!!! (rules vary between states) I posted this here because i have had real experience with the legal system with regards to this matter in Brisbane, have you? My case was not open and shut. I accelerated from the lights on my GSXR1000 at near full throttle and he was in an unmarked car. I only slowed down as i saw a speck in my mirrors flashing me. At no stage was he able to follow close behind me at the same speed. The advice from my laywer was the judge will believe the police office over any excuse i may have. My advice to Eastes is to discuss a Good Behaviour licience with your laywer as this maybe the only you can keep your licience.
  7. Been in a similar situation. I was on my motorbike accelerating from lights at the start of the SE freeway heading south over the bridge from the city. Unmarked police car behind me at the lights. He pulled me over and said I was doing 120 in 70 zone. I didn't even realise it started as a 70 zone. anyway went to laywer - he said that they wont care what you say , there is no bargining, no defence. Not worth trying to contest it. Our plan: Go to the compulsory court hearing with laywer, and apply for 'good behaviour licience' - 1 point for 1 year. To do this, you have to prove that you need your licience for your work and you will suffer extreme hardship (ie lose job , house etc) if you loose your licience. You will then have to pay the fine and your legal costs . Cost me about $3000. And the Judge added that if i appear before him again then he will not be granting me a good behaviour licience again.
  8. Hi Mark, Porsche club as you know also do track days at Lakeside, but most likely on weekends. I think the time spent on Paul Stokell track days is quite valuable. He is a Lakeside expert. Especially with your permance monitoring, having Paul do at least one session in your car around the track for you to later analyse and overlay with your sessions is the smartest way to go. Then it is like everyone else says its bum in seat time on track and slowly chipping away at it. With some areas that I am working on- I asked him yesterday - Do you think we could go through the kink flat out and he said ultimately yes but there would be no room for error. He advised at least a dab on the brakes before turn in for some forward weight transfer. Im also working on the back half of track and trying to reduce understeer through the second last corner. I like this quote from "Lakeside Introductary Racemeeting": "As every one who has raced there will tell you - Lakeside is a DANGEROUS place. Do not interpret this as a dare. Many people have come to grief at Lakeside and some of them terminally. It is NOT a place to take unnecessary risks when racing because it will bite you and hard! "
  9. HI Guys, I still have the R35 Carbon fibre boot for sale. This would be of great interest to anyone looking to fit an aftermarket wing. Its crated up ready to ship anywhere. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ca...tml&hl=boot
  10. Its funny - before the cobb and custom tune, when changing to the slick tyres at the track i would get TMPS alarm until i changed back to road wheels. But now i dont see it any more when changing wheels back and forth. Ask the guys to see if they can program it out for you.
  11. Hey Drew, I got mine from Adam and it works fine. Plugged it in for both seats. No lights and no codes and it also means the airbag for the stearing wheel is still operational. Bill
  12. I'm glad you could make it Mark. It was a big turn out for the day. Great fun. The GTRs ran very well. and I was pleased to make a 5 sec improvement on my previous conservative time. I'm looking forward to the next Lakeside. Next box to tick is the revised Morgan Park.
  13. Nice video Mark, It was interesting in the wet today - my 1st wet session. Its all good experience, so long as we keep it from hitting the wall. (Not all on the day were able to drive there car home today.) It was such a tease - only one session in the AM on new slicks before the rain. Many decided to call it a day after the 1st pm session, but I do wish i stayed out all day. Just a pic of Mark on the straight:
