How fast were the Exige/Elises and M5?

The Yellow Exige was hand timed at one stage at 1:05s. He has done 1:04s. The red Exige is an easy couple of seconds per lap quicker again. At Eastern Creek those two cars are capable of 1:46 and 1:36 respectively.

How fast were the Exige/Elises and M5?

the m5's weren't all that quick, there wasa gold one going around and i managed to out drive him and even passs him in my almost stock as a rock R32 gts-t, there was a blue or grey one though was going around pretty quick.

Mike, stock?

hi flowed turbo u said remmeber?

other mods too, come on mate!

I thought u smacked those elises also?

i said nearly stock! only the stock elises, the 2 exiges no change one of them did a 1:04, compared to the majority of cars there i had next to no work, thats what i meant by it!

Sloger is my bosses m5

Not sure what was goin on with the bonnet, ill have to show him the pic and ask him

Good to see a few lines out there and having a go ;)

Hey Guys & Girls, Marty from Autosports here...

Just wanted to drop in and say a big thanks for the support you guys showed with the numbers of poeple that turned up on Friday. The day was an absolute sucess and we simply love putting them on.

In saying that... there is now a track day confirmed for Eastern Creek for Sat 7th April. It would be good to see some of you guys and girls there having a blast with us.

Just so you guys know... we operate these days at absolute cost simply becuase we love getting crazy on the track. We dont make a cent out of it like other places who hold track days.

PS: I am in the middle of a build on a Datto 1200 Coupe with a CA18 in it and i am looking for a few GTR brake parts for my drivetrain... if anyone has anything that they think might be of benefit, please let me know

Cheers,

Marty

Just showed my boss the pic of the m5

He popped the bonnet to let some of the heat out, then forgot to close it.....

EC on the 7th sounds good - i think we may go to this one

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
