And finally I blew my front diff up on the 1st competative day over west and some boys put their hands up to help fix the car and when the garage was opened inside there was these 2 little toys. (Who knew there were so many R35's in Perth)

And super-cool spotting Snows. That's up there with the Ascari Ecosse (one of my QLD customers has one - 1 of only 9) as a ludicrously rare car to spot, not just in Aus but world-wide.

Big D - Pop in and visit Crazy Howard, he has a Mangusta in his shop and there are a few Longchamps around in Melbourne (I have seen 2x coupes and a spyder).

theyre actually quite nice.Also spotted this on ebay... thought it was quite a nice price http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Other-Makes...1QQcmdZViewItem

Geezus Audi are serious about attacking Porches market sector aren't they?

Good to see though. Saw my first on the GC yesterday with ISMINE plates. Very low and wide hipped. Makes it a very serious looking car.

So how was the drive Snowy? We had Mark and Russ show up at our recent Nissan Track day a couple of weeks back with the R35. I didn't see it run as I was in the same session that Russ took it on the paper clip and he pulled a 57s on the Sprint layout, with 4 wet corners a 1, 2, 4 and 5, and 1 inch of lying water between 3-4, on standard factory rubber. I think I'll have to hock the 40ft yacht off and get one. BTW this old cripple could only manage 1.01s in the same session.

Jeff we timed 2 laps - did a 1.50.0 and a 1.50.2. Apparently Christian Murchisan did a high 1.48 earlier in the week.

Not bad for a production car on street rubber (Pirelli P Zero). I sure as hell was impressed. Not to mention I did 40 laps in 2hrs and the car was still perfect at the end (brakes fine, water 90degs and oil 100degs)

FYI Christian did some hot laps in the RS4 which we timed at 1.55.2 - so the R8 is considerably quicker.

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
