Damn - I've been superceeded. ;)

I'm at Calder so it doesn't concern me - but if people were thinking of trying to stay down at the Island overnight remember it is a long weekend so think about booking something now.

Hey - for that one weekend you can call me Cole Trickle.

I can go to the Island whenever but this is probably my one chance to go flat out in my car around the ThunderDome.

Still good to see the SAU boys at PI. Aaron we want a 1.45 and Jack into the 1.49's.

LOL...was talkign to my boss about this. He use to Crew Chief for an Auscar team...it seems that the oval isnt flat out...and you need brakes :)

I may come and watch, no money to run the R32 :)

I hope someone buys my street tyres so I have my semi comps in time for this

If Adz or Geoff reads this, how much difference is there between driving on the semis and road tyres at PI???

I know there is about3-4 seconds per lap, but the feel of the car on the grippy rubber. Would you say easier, scarier? My gut feelign is i wouldnt use semis for the first time at PI....tryign to re-learnt he levels of grip on a fast track could end badly

I've got a better idea. I'll go for the 49s and Jack can go for the 45s.. That's getting into scary fast territory...

Cole, remember to go high when they spin in front of you and hold it pinned !!!

I'll be happy with a 49, stoked with a 48...

Aaron, you could do a lazy 45 i reckon, bring on the 44's!!!!!

Last time the boys played tyre swappy's at the Island it was five seconds all round with three drivers getting this increase almost immediatly.

I want to get 49's at the island before I add more power to my car. Aaron did you do a 49 bfore the upgrade?

Tyres make a huge difference, especially at a track like PI, its all about carrying the speed through the corners...

Scotsman - actually a 49 can be achievable with your setup, as i think Snowy got a 49 a while back with similar mods to yours... is that right Snowy??

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
