the results are posted on the blcc website now.

i came 19th outright.. pretty happy with that, seeing as it was really only the 2nd time i had driven on the mountain at all! heh

yeh thats great news steve, that last run must have been a sreamer mate

I wondered what was on... I was in Lithgow on Saturday headed back to Sydney, passed quite a few cars on trailers (new manaro, SLR 5000 + a silver n Black 32)

didnt see many sky's on the road tho... mrs was in the drivers seat with L's so i was concentrating on what she was doing :laugh:

The GT-R's looked great on the top of the mountain :kiss:

Gregs white one and that silver one came over the crest like a bull at a gate - and both didnt stop there. They had some serious speed going on :laugh:

Well done Steve on the great result for a first time! :P

I had a great weekend and was happy with my times considering it was my first event ........ with corners :D

Had lots of fun taking on 2 tricky and famous pieces of road.

Good to meet you all and it was good to see a few skylines and other imports at this type of event.

I think i need a few tips from Greg as he really knows how to push a GTR to its Limits. Well done Greg.

The silver GTR seems to be well set up and driven. It would be interesting to find out what his engine mods are as that may explain why it sounds SO different to other GTRs. 3L ?? or could a set of cams make it sound like that?

Tim.

Great weekend had by all. i ran a 49.34 for the sprint 6th fastest and 2nd in class . on the hillclimb 51.75 7th fastest and 2nd in class.

improved both my times from last year. the silver gtr was way to fast. couldnt beat it. and tried my best. it got third outright for the weekend.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
