porsches are like arseholes up there

i know most of the porsche guys and was up there last weekend the guys in the porsches paid my accomodation (thanx guys)

anthony and bruce are both very very good drivers and bruce is the funnest bloke u will ever meet

it was an awsome weekend even if i didnt get to have a drive

who had the grey gtr?

grey r32 was dennis holland

r33 was richard whitehead

both can steer a car OK but the 32 was very standard.

And 2.16 is good....but it was a current cup car on slicks with an experienced cup car driver....not your normal supersprint setup

the event was closed 2 all public so photos will b hard 2 come by but me and a friend managed 2 get up 2 the elbow when the porsches were out on the sat arvo and he got sum footage on his phone, its not much but ill get it off him and load it up. yeah those cup cars were hauling around the mount. does any1 know who hit the wall at skyline and in the elbow, it was a bit hit in the elbow, i walked the mount yesterday to look at the marks and the grass is covered in glass. cheers in advance

the cars that hit on saturday where a black 997 gt3 (street car)

a red mx5 new shape

and a 944 was the massive hit where he knocked himself out and from what i heard they had to cut the car open to get him out

and on sunday bruce hibbard broke a right hand drive shaft in his gt2

unfortunatly i forgot my camera and dont have any photos of the event at all :P

kevin whiteheads 94 gtr is actually a blue r32 gtr

Broken shaft in a GT2 and a 997 gt3 broken?

Thats a costly weekend.

the shaft isnt to bad, might even get it under warrenty (porsche will warrent you after track use)

the 997 wont be cheap as it set of the air bag in the passanger door

Ouch

Any pics?

hmm well at the risk of sounding harsh....its just a reminder never to race a car you can't afford to write off. Especially at a place like Bathurst.

Yeah im just saying, a new one - that sucks cause theyre so damn sexy ;)

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
