mmmm I woulda thought they woulda been 58 second cars, atleast the 33 anyway.

fraid not mate...takes a little more than removing the total interior to run 58's

Alas they were a long way off being "fast " at basky.

61-62's still aint to shabby for a street car.

The old man mentioned you were going to the training day. How was it? Worth while doing?

Yeah sorry guys...that sort of came out wrong!!

It's just that looks are deceiving - if you looked at Matt Rodgers Supra would you think that was capable of 59 second laps?

Just wish my car was that fast...or even partly close to that would be nice!

Shane- the day was well worth it mate, instructors were really good and seemed to know their stuff, my car is still set up for tarmac rally so is way too soft for the circuit, was scraping the tyres through the sweeper and the esses to the point where it felt like they were going to come through the floor.

By the end of the day with some guidance I managed to settle down my corner entry and knock a second off my best time around there, even with the current set up.

Well worth signing up for no matter what level you are at.

I didn't know Matt has a Supra

Sounds like the day was well worth it if you found a second a lap. A second a lap can cost a lot of money if you try to get it other ways!!!

For sure, every second is damn hard to come by!

E85 is on the horizon very soon..... need something to keep up to you blokes with all the power !!!!!!

Don't be concerned about the E85. The people I know that have switched to it have got better results than big $$$'s race fuel.

Next time I do any engine mods to the Z I think that's what I'll get it tuned on.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
