approching 300rwkw in rwd is pushing it I think, but then again i haven't driven a 300rwkw rwd car.... Circuit sprints you could probably get away with your power range between 4300-8500rpm, thats over 4000rpm in your powerband which is usually enough... but motokana you may want something a bit more responsive....

Nice one James.... will need some decent camber to get the rears inside the guards.... hmmm That blue evo with 19"s looks pretty hot - his rims dont seem to be sticking out?

fark that thing can move hey. Its got some decent grip in the wet.

That water-free wash stuff will leave swirl marks all over your car, don't use it. Go to your local car wash, take a bucket and your sponge/chamois etc... use their water but wash it as per normal. I try to go late at night so its not busy and they won't yell at me for doing it.

Yeah, so why is this one better if its the same as the rest?

dude, this thread is 3 years old - don't you check the date before posting?

And the asian chick from Battle Star haha.... Demos good graphics, but it seems the same as the rest.... gather shit, build shit, kill shit...

If the new GTR is there i'll go....

There is usually a marco mode on the point and shoot cameras that help you take close ups, looks like a little flower on my camera, try that next time

hahahhaha, will i ever live that down Yeah i saw your boss at trackside when i was getting some 2nd hand re55 since mine were showing belts and you can't get new ones atm anyway... he couldn't say enough good things about you - one of the best workers he's ever had - i had to triple check we were talking about the same guy Giant - sorry to hear about the car, but bloody impressive that even in 4th you managed to win the 800m sprints, thats just nuts

Look locally first, theres some nice ones around.

You realise the drilled part is just for looks and actually weakens the disc ?

yeah i've used DS3000 along with most of the other GTR track guys in sauvic. They chew your rotors big time when cold, so don't daily drive, but otherwise they are good. Need a bit of heat in them to get them to bite hard which may be your only issue for tarmac rally stuff compared to circuit sprints...

Drove a V8 Vantage the other day, very nice car, not that fast tho http://ferni.net/photos/Cars/0702_Aston_Martin_Test_Drive/

nope, exactly the same as non-vspec. I suggest keeping them at 1bar or less.

Sorry not sure i got them for my R33 GTR but they are 324x30

Go the DBA5000 if you can spend the extra few hundred, lighter and dissipate heat better (so I've been told). DS3000 pads need a bit of heat into them first, so first couple of corners they won't be up to temp...

I don't think the excedy can hold that kind of power, but i've never tried. Try Jim Berry, or Xtreme, or UAS, they all have single plate clutches that should be able to hold that power. Should be around the $1000 mark, give or take...

keep an eye on the website, under 'my orders' and you'll see the progress. It will also have an ETA of shipping

yeah, use firefox

Ahhhh yeah sorry i was thinking of the cheap open days, they were always crowded...

I think you're going to have trouble finding a nice ride and something that can stop your car diving under brakes. You need more spring rate up front to stop your car diving, adding more spring rate you're going to lose ride quality. A good shock can help reduce some of the loss of ride quality. It's a trade off - what do you want more?

ahhaha not bad driving dude. You'll find most of us do our own SAUVIC/WRX Track days, not many of us go to these open days anymore... they can get a bit crowded etc... You should come to the SAU track days..... 1.43 in a gtst on street tyres? thats pretty good!

Go buy a GTR and i'll come do it with you Troy The bonus side for you is, I'll make you look good when you beat me in every event in the same car

What did you end up doing with this Justin?
