42's is insane... Where is Franky and JFK when we need them to come and play haha. New PB for me even if it was on a laptimer... 1.49.82 backed up by a 1.49.88 the following lap. Don't know how I'll get into the 48's...

20? and the rest I would say i'll beat you next time, but i don't think i'll be able to catch you now... I'll just have to settle that i beat you into the 49's first even if only by a few hours 1.49.82 backed up with a 1.49.88 the following lap. Respect to everyone who is going faster than that, dropping from 1.50's to 1.49's felt like i was going about 20% faster, but yet i was only really going about half a percent faster. No idea how you guys do 46's and 47's....

No its just off the main road, you drive passed the first entrance and turn into the 2nd entrance.... its the truck entrance i think? Chances are you'll see other competitors turning in there anyway.

Ohh no, more pressure, gotta beat the crazy rowdy to a sub 50.... I wonder how you'll go on semis....

Well it depends a lot, not sure about gtst, i think they run a bit cooler than GTRs. But to give you some idea at the track I hit around 120 oil temp, if i get to about 125 i usually back off a bit to let it cool, doesn't take long to drop back to <120. As for water temps You want to keep it under 100deg. I usually sit at low 90s on the track. When i say track, i mean the real track - not the drag strip I have an oil cooler with ducting and a bigger alloy radiator and around 300kw@wheels.

Matt - I'm just there for Saturday... can't make it Sunday. As for fuel cans you can get 20ltr cans anywhere, supercheap, bunnings etc.... But there is BP Ultimate in Cowes not far from the track. I take that 100ron optimax stuff with me so i use jerry cans.

Yeah it does Anthony: 4 27 Anthony Snelling (4) 97 GTR SKL 19 S16 1:06.3061 0:05.4752 1:09.0447 0.1441 http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results..../2007.CPR.S15.Y

Call them, you may be able to get one on the day. That's how i got my first one years ago, at a PIARC day. You in for both days Matt???

She replied to my email - I'm on the list for Saturday, Sorted. 1.49 here i come. Jack more power? You cheat. Someone get me a tow rope.

Also depends on the offset with your 9.5" on the R32 GTR, the guards aren't that wide so you gotta be careful of rubbing, you may need a skinnier tyre 235/245 to prevent rubbing

I didn't have a cheque, so i just wrote on the form call for CC or can pay cash, or DD. I've emailed now...

He's taken one off to make it fair for you NSW guys. I didn't get an email BB? should i have?

Need to see it in the flesh, but 11.7 quater mile and 3.5 to 100k/h, that's one fast stock car!

"Hi Ben, it's BBGTR here, is my car ready yet is my car ready yet?" "140kw at the wheels you say? uhh ok" thats fine with me! then you'll never catch me!!!!

You're such a Dutton whore now Snowy. Yes i'm jealous.

Unless you're going to hold it on the limiter for a minute like Bass did then you'll probably be fine

If you want to get rid of the Liberty GT cheap when you upgrade let me know Jerry

+ORC would mean plus luxury car tax as well wouldn't it? So probaly more like 90-95k for the base and 135ish for the upper end?

Hey John (or anyone else) Are you going to be bringing a beacon for Saturday for our laptimers? Saves me finding an external battery for mine.

So is your car ready for this weekend BB?

You'll need to put it back to standard (steering wheel etc..) to compliance. Vspec sticker you could get from nissan. Probably even find them on Ebay? It will always cost you more than you think when importing, make sure you budget for that. Buying a car you've never seen or driven is scary

370awkw would be close to 400rwkw so yeah a 11.1 would be possible. 130mph for 400rwkw is pretty impressive... 300-320rwkw usually gets about 120mph.

I think all the cheap 400R copies on gtst's that don't fit right has turned me off the 400R look... i just look at it and automatically associate it with that now.

Check nengun or greenline But about 2.5-3k

Kyle semi's won't automatically stop you spinning out, they will just give you more grip before you spin out, so you'll be spinning out faster If you're spinning out, best to sort out whatever it is doing it - driver or car setup I had the same trouble when i first started doing trackdays, spinning out on low speed corners and car feeling unstable. As for an oil cooler - just get the biggest you can, the HKS kit is good because it comes in a kit with air deflector etc... make sure you duct as much air through it as you can. Don't bother with the oil filter relocation.
