r33_racer Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Thats a bugger mate. Hopefully you will be ready in time for the next lot of races. In regards to the speed, our factory speedo goes off the clock for quite sometime haha, but at a guess id say it would be that maybe a tad higher. Also we use a high energy circuit sump and it works great with built in baffles, one way doors and gates and an extended pick up.

ZENNON Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 WHOA HOW MUCH FUN IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!1!!1!1!eleven how my day went: first three laps i was stuck behind a turbo xr6 then i got past him and two conners later my engine just turned off. got towed back and investigated and realised the hose from the FMIC to the turbo and come undone somehow - put that back and i was back in the action! my first three lap times (read: the falcons first three lap times) were like 1:12s. then second session had some traffic again but was getting a bit more comfortable with the whole thing (really started having fun). was stuck behind a subie for a while and last lap had a clean lap chasing some awesome looking blue r32 gtr. got a 1:07 that lap! then session 3 had nice clean laps and got 1:07s and 1:06s!! had we even had enough time to go out for a forth session!! best lap of the day for my was 1:06.15 which i was quiet happy with - the car can do quite a bit better if the driver just improves like mom alway said "practice makes perfect" so ill be back for more for sure!!! was impressed with the amount of skylines too!! there was like 3x 31's, 3x 32's, and 2 or 3 33's Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/137491-saturday-sprints-28-october-2006/page/2/#findComment-2623343 Share on other sites More sharing options...

r33_racer Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 haha well our oil pump failed(assumed so far) and killed the motor. Such a bad day, first our new wheel alignment farked 2k worth of slicks on the front, chewed them right down to the canvas. Then the turbo blew, so I raced out to morningside and got another one, we fitted that and everything was ok but then the oil pressure started to drop and along the back straight it died completely. The engine was shut off asap, but it has ceased. So out it all comes this week for a rebuild. Not good at all, and because of the dramas i didnt get a go in the car But my old man managed a flat 60 when the car was running half descent before it shat itself completely.

Dan_B Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Sorry to hear that. Heat was a big killer out there, being a NA RB30e i don't have much anyway but i could really feel it lacking, still managed to pull a 1:08.95 even with the LSD not working. New tyres really helped me. My mate in his R31 GTS1 pulled a 1:07.69 and his old man in the stock R33 GTS-t S2 ran a 1:06.40.

cerb Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I was out there yesterday to watch a mate (the blue ae86) - first time I've been to the sprints and I couldn't believe how hectic it is. Cars everywhere in the pits and almost always cars out on the track. Real variation of cars tho, so it was great to watch. I can't go near QR without my camera gear, so I got a heap of photos while watching. I don't know which of the cars were SAU people, but here's some of the skylines: The rest here: http://fulllockphotos.com/?album=SAS_Oct28 I tried to get shots of every car, but if you were out there and can't find any of yours then PM me and I'll take a look.

Dale FZ1 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Top marks for the pics. Saturday Sprints are on my to-do list for next year but I plan to be there for a bit of spectating if there is another round before Christmas. All I have to do is learn a bit (lot) of car control, and grow some goolies Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/137491-saturday-sprints-28-october-2006/page/2/#findComment-2627828 Share on other sites More sharing options...
