Evo Vs Gtr Vs Sti

[Madaz]

yeah that street tuner challenge is great show

[salad]

Engine wise - R34 RB26 with steel wheelled low mounts, believed to be N1 or group A spec but haven't chased up the actual kind, just made sure they were the large cartridge/steel wheel variety for the boost I run (1.5 bar)

The usual fuel system upgrades (pump, 700cc injectors, sard reg), ARC oil cooler and IC, blitz intake pods + hard IC piping kit, APEXI radiator (currently in the process of being replaced), PWR FC D jetro with last dyno at Willalls (340rwkws, 1.3 bar) although on the track I run a 20% toluene/boost 98 mix, 1.5bar and 3 to 4 degrees extra timing so whatever that gives me (seat of the pants dyno=quicker :-) )

Gearbox = stock, OS giken twin plate, ATS 1.5 LSD in the rear

Chassis - all joints rose jointed, extra body bracing through the engine bay with tomei strut / body brace, chassis rails all expander foam filled, 4 point cage

coil overs, track wheel alignment setup (although I haven't been to the Lala with the new setup)

AP 330mm brakes up front, std rear albeit with braided lines + nismo pads in the back

Tyres - at this stage still running the ADVAN street tyres (trust me - its a bloody handful on the track!) but I will be getting some semi's early next year.

Managed a 36.66 up collingrove last Sunday on the first (and only) timed run before the event was rained out.

Mallala is a braking track - so brute horsepower isn't a huge neccessity. Good cornering / brakes will help you along in leaps and bounds before you try taking more grunt to the track. Also tyre pressure / wheel alignment is a huge help, although it is obviously a little impractical to run 3 deg camber and 6-7 castor on an everyday streeter.

All that and still on street tyres!?

Me thinks you're lap time are gonna plummet when you get some good semis

I am keen for an update as well

My 32 is in Adelaide atm and will probably be heading up north again mid Jan. It will be awesome if you can organise a track day before that? I will be in Adelaide on the 13th of Jan, is it any good for a friendly track day ?
