  1. R35 Revozport carbon fibre front lip/splitter Used, modified and damaged as pictured. Includes lip, splitter (clear vinyl wrapped underside), aluminium skid plates and templates, PVC bends to route tubing away from tyres and the pointless rotor ducts (rotor ducts brand new and unused). Located in Brisbane. $600 plus shipping. Pickup preferred. Contact via pm or clubby249 at hotmail dot com.
  2. My stack of rims/tyres keeps growing, unfortunately my garage does not. Something has to go so make an offer.
  3. It's probably sitting in a Nissan dealership workshop in Perth at a guess. I only noticed it wasn't there when I was changing the diff fluid last weekend.
  4. Does anyone have an OEM driver's side undertray (pictured) they would like to part with? Apparently mine is missing. Preferrably in Brisbane but will look further afield for the right price. PM me with a price.
  5. Sat in the bay grandstand last year (cheapest tix). If you get the turn 18 end you might see more but sitting down the turn 17 end didn't see much of the cars. There are two screens in front of that stand though and a massive stage for "entertainment". You might want to stab yourself in the face if you watch the same entertainment more than once. Actually, you'll probably want to 5 minutes into it the first time. Those tickets also get you access to the stages where the bands play. If you go for that grandstand and can get a motel inside the track do it. When there is a break between on track activities you can go back to your room for drinks etc.. You can also go to the shopping mall inside the track and use the foodcourt for kickass cheap food (forget its name sorry). If you get lucky with your room you will probably see more cars from there than in the grandstand. Watching the safety and medical cars cut laps Thursday night was entertaining. The only downside to staying inside the track is it's a bit of a PITA to get outside the track. Nothing major though. Foodcourts are brilliant in generaly for cheap food. Proper restaurants are expensive and alcohol is generally expensive everywhere so pick up some duty free on the way into Singapore. That's all I can think of for now, anything specific shoot me a pm.
  6. Under the carpet in the passenger side foot well.
  7. I assume you are talking about the RE70R and not the RE70R R2? The UTQG rating is the same for both but I would assume they would have to have made some improvement. What was the difference in longitudinal grip between the Bridgestone vs Dunlop? I am mainly thinking forward to WTAC next year where UTQG 140 is the cutoff for the street class. When I get round to organising semis I'll be using 18s so there will be plenty of options there.
  8. What were the times on the OEM Bridgestones vs OEM Dunlops (if you have a comparison on a similar setup) and any other comments on the differences in feel?
  9. Mark has run the Godzilla Motorsport R32 at Jamboree at 7.60 @ 180mph making it the second quickest in the world.
  10. At this stage all Nissan in-line 6s, at least one will be a 2.8L. That may change a bit later though.
  11. I thought I'd give some real world data on the Cobb AccessPORT on an otherwise stock standard R35. I installed the AccessPORT and reflashed the ECU with the delivered stage 1 ECU map, stage 1 TCM map and did a clutch re-learn. The effect was immediately noticeable. The gearbox lost some of its jerkiness from standstill. The launch RPM is now 3300rpm just like it says on the box. The first impressions from the seat of the pants is the engine now pulls much stronger. I spent some time with Mark at Godzilla Motorsport on the dyno and the results were interesting. With the stock tune the R35 made 391hp (~293kw) at all four wheels with boost starting at around 12psi and tapering off to just under 11psi. With the delivered stage 1 map the R35 made 401hp (~300kw) at all four wheels with boost starting at just under 14psi and tapering off to around 12psi. That is a pretty modest gain, a lot less than the Cobb claimed 63hp peak gain, and doesn't explain the perceived performance gain. The real gains were the 50hp+ increase across the middle of the rev range! 40hp gain (18% increase) at 3500rpm, 50hp gain (13% increase) at 4500rpm, tapering off the 10hp gains in the top end. More power where it counts most in a daily driven, part time circuit car. Definitely a worthwhile modification on any R35. Keep in mind the Cobb AccessPORT is the only modification. Adding an exhaust and/or intake modifications will probably yield higher peak gains. Godzilla Motorsport is now an authorised Cobb Tuning dealer meaning Mark has access to the full catalogue of Cobb parts. More importantly, Mark also has the AccessTUNER Pro software meaning he can go that step further than reselling/installing purchased tunes, and can do custom tuning work. The next step is to do some custom tuning and see where the delivered Cobb maps can be optimised further and what gains can be had. I'll post there results when I have them.
