hahah i kept thinking the same thing Troy. Watching it i'm going, wow he's moving... then i timed him and thought shit, i'm (hopefully) going to be going faster haha...

It is the Nation's premier power track afterall . . . . Hehe, I don't know if I'd bother turning up even if I HAD money or a gearbox in My car ! ! Neeeed POWWWWWWWAAAAAAHHHHH ! !

hmmm, manifold pressure compensating Fuel regs on ebay for $120, looks interesting . . . . . ;)

Strange. I was looking at that lap and thinking man he is flying. And braked way later then me over the back. yeh he was 4 secodns slower. Hmm, maybe i will be lucky to wipe off half a second :)

I swear I would have made up 2 seconds of my 3.5 second improvement there last time just by getting some more balls on the back straight... hairy stuff though! Great fun :D

Sandown is still great without a lot of power, and the time can be made up... a little ;)

Hardman: Nigel was only 1.5 seconds quicker than me in the 450rwkw Supra last time we went. Not sure if he was running full power or not, but it sure looked quick on the straights!

hahaha i don't expect to be anywhere near snowy or jack, first time out and lack of skill, you know.... Should be fun tho, i'm getting pumped....

Ferni,

You and I are line ball on nearly every track. Look for a low 23 and you know you would have had a good day.

Best of luck.

I noticed the same thing... at least we have each other to chace, screw these guys doing sub 20's around sandown...

Got the car ready on sunday, can't wait to get out there, little bit nervous even though I'm doing driver training lol.

Yeah you'll be nervous just before you go out, once you're out there it will all just come to you, and you'll start having fun :closedeyes:

Well done Ferni, a 1.22 is really moving.

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
