When the motor does finally pack it in, what are you thinking?
Slap another one in and keep thrashing i hope! Trying to keep the engine cost down so i can do as many events as possible!

A lot has happened over the past 12mths... STILL the same stock NEO from factory, STILL the factory headgasket...
The engine is getting a bit tired but it is not stopping us from setting PB's and having fun!

Here is our last track day at Wakefield Park, we are finally in the 63's and heading in the right direction for a 62 hopefully later in the year.

Love it!
Keen to hear how it goes with your suspension setup now! Keep me updated...
-
Ummm... Wow!
I was initially one of the guys complaining about these fans until i found that JEM had fit the damn thing backwards! So that made me look like a goose!
I have been spinning mine to over 8000rpm for long periods at the track and have had no issues at all and the cooling system has been spot on ever since.
You sure you didn't break an engine mount or something else as that sure looks like contact of some form? Ouch!

MCA spring update will come on the 29th of this month when i test the new rates... Will try remember to post in here for you guys! Dont want to hijack your thread but seems relevant to your build

howd you go with your first crack at decent aero ??
which bit you changing front or rear ?
ive opted for cheaper version first as I know i'll prob smash it lol
Aero was all set to neutral and power set to low while we get the suspension sorted
In terms of spring rates i am waiting to hear back, will likely be the front and rear by a touch!I have already hit the ground with the carbon splitter as my old BC's were useless haha
-
Finished installing all new stuff last night ... bar the new rims that are not here yet and front splitter in progress
i'll go get a wheel alignment and have a few tuning sessions to see how it goes
MCA recommended 11kg front and 5kg rear springs based on details I gave them about the car and tracks I run. We have more point and shoot tracks not a lot of high speed cornering unfortunately
so he suggested a softer spring rate than usually apparently ... i'll go with what they say for obvious reasons and only $50 / per spring to change if necessaryfrom jumping up and down n the front and back of the car which I know is a highly sophisticated testing mechanism ...lol.. they are far stiffer and progressive than what was in there previously
MCA do a top job and you will be happy with the Reds... I just drove mine for the first time on the weekend with them and they were great!
We are altering the spring rates on mine but not by much

Going to enter that with 3 of my other mates as a "club" lol
When is this on?

Matt, car looks outstanding
You still keeping the FP3076 on ?
Thanks mate.
Long term, not likely... Turbo is great but i want to run more power with less boost and stress on the engine at some stage...

If sold as a package deal i will do the lot above for $1350 firm. No offers and not splitting them up just yet as i do not have the time.
-
add more boost to make up for the lack of compression lol
Lol how do you think i did my last track day?
-
STILL in this club... Although the ole RB is starting to show its pain
-
I am so glad I bit the bullet and bought these without any review from others using them on R33 boats... day and night difference over BC BR coilovers with softer springs.
I could have gotten BC BR coilcovers for nearly half the price but I am so glad I didn't!
Next track outing should be fun, BREMBO brakes going on and hopefully the weather is cooler!
I ran the BC BR for a few track days and found they were too soft in the front, Road2Race then changed to a 11.5kg front spring which helped a bit... However since i went nutz with the modifications on my car and introduced aero i found they were wayyyy too soft and boaty now, poor splitter copped some damage at the test day...
I had quite a few messages go back and forth with Josh at MCA in regards to the setup and we have ended up with a set of reds with 13kg front and 5kg rear, i have no idea what it is like yet but have also been told to revert back to standard swaybars and suspension etc (As mentioned by Duncan earlier there are 2 different ways with the suspension setup and i am going from the SK trend to the MCA i guess)...
Unfortunately i wont be able to test until March, but it will be at Wakefield so i will know how they feel in comparison to the BC BR... Times wont be relevant as i have got rid of weight, added bigger brakes, bigger tyres etc...
EDIT - And massive thanks to Dale for all the help with his wealth of suspension knowledge too!!!

Hi Guys,
I will have a set of BC BR Coilovers for sale over the next few days, these are currently fitted to my R34GTT. This is the standard BC BR coilover setup, however the spring rates have been altered/improved by Road2Race Chassis Tuning. At the time of the upgrade we also put the coilovers on the shock dyno and the results were impressive given the price of them.
The spring rates are currently 11.5kg approx in front and the standard 6kg rear, this was working well in my GTT and was very easy to drive.
These have done very little work, the car has seen a number of track days and a couple of street drives since fitted so in terms of milage they have done bugger all, they were working surprisingly well for a cheaper coilover package however due to the new aero upgrade i have recently added this suspension no longer suits my application. I have upgraded to a set of MCA coilovers and will be selling these in the boxes they came in for easy transportation.
These are perfect for an entry level track car or just a quick grocery getter.
A link with info -
These are currently $1399 new, asking price for this set is $950ono as they have been used.
They are currently in the car, however will be removed in the next week or so. Currently located Newcastle area.
If you are interested PM me and ill get back to you.
I will also have other items such as Works XT7 rims, adjustable suspension arms and custom adjustable swaybars being listed shortly.
Pics can be taken but they look like the images in the link above, the front springs are purple though due to the change.
Cheers
Mat

Hey Mat I just saw a photo of your re-incarnated 34 in the R34s...please thread, looks awesome!
Sorry to jump in but a quick question about the undertray, have you got a photo from underneath with the full front end in place?
Are you running an undertray/diffuser out the back at all?
I'm keen to DIY a flatter undertray for my GTT at some stage and looking for some pointers
Hi Mate,
No not at this stage, will develop it as time goes on but at this stage its just what you see in the image above.

If you have entered and paid you MUST register on the RTDC site... To do so PM me and ill provide the code to enter!
If you require numbers you can purchase them through RTDC too... You can source your own but they must meet CAMS K 2.1 other speed events!
Supp regs are here -
In terms of spring rates i am waiting to hear back, will likely be the front and rear by a touch!
so he suggested a softer spring rate than usually apparently ... i'll go with what they say for obvious reasons and only $50 / per spring to change if necessary
