sh@un Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Hmmm...Love that circuit, so smooooooth ('cept a bit of the north circuit), much more so than Wakefield and a fair bit of EC. Really, really makes me wanna go nutz modding the car to make it better on track days :sigh: Sorry if I distracted youse all with my flame-thrower! *LOL* If it's any consellation, my rear bar is f#@cked, hahaha. P.s Fatz- how much for a RB30 Silvia? That thing was a machine!!

Can i ask where you got the 2nd hand slicks from? also what size were they? I currently have 18x9.5 rims with cheap crappy tyres on at the moment. But i would buy a set of R32 GTR rims for the track day and put semi/slicks on if the tyres were affordable Or maybe some kind person would lend me a set for the day - anyone have spares?

That means if I had been running on slicks, i probably would have been as quick as you in my 13y.o, non-vspec R32, on my first time at OP! ...or not.

OZ GTR35 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I had a friend that run a GT3 in the porche cup last year, they were just sitting around in his garage. The fronts are 18x9 240's and the rears are 18 x 11 290's. The front tyres fit on the original R34 GTR rims, a little small but they do fit. I paid the perfect price $0. Its like that old saying its not what you know but who you know. I have about 1-2 track days left on the once I used on Sat and I think I have 3 more pairs of fronts to use after that. Sorry these are not for sale, but when I pick up the rest of them I will try and get some numbes and attempt to source some more for everyone, even if we have to pay $100 per tyre, they would be fantastic for what we do with them. I will post up if I get any success.

Boosted Zed Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Good time ther Paul L on SLICKS. I ran Hoosier Semi Slicks which are very good although wrong profile as nto enough side wall in rear and wheelspinning a lot as not enough cushion effect I think. Anyone going to Eastern Creek Next Sunday for Super Sprint? I will there. Time are here Speed Boat Wins. http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....04/2006.ORGP.S2 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/106826-sau-nsw-official-track-day-is-coming/page/18/#findComment-2128336 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt pretty good on the day.. my best time was a 1:29.50. My first ever run on a track though, so there is some room for improvement with some decent tyres (Wan Li brand tyres on there at the moment! *Shudder*) Thanks for the info dude! Very good setup, exactly what I am after! Hopefully will have something very similar in the Cefiro. Ando PS Cheers Steve for the PM!
