[guesty]

It's the second last track day this year at Symmons.

$85 entry.

Should be a great day, Plenty of action and heaps of runs.

Everything from Porsche's to SR20 Powered Preludes to 59second GTR's to STI's and EVO's.

I challenge anybody to run a 1:05.73 or better in a RWD Skyline.

now i have to get my car back on the road, or i'll have to commendeer the Targa car

[guesty]

What happened to your car sav man? maybe i should help fix yours and i just drive the Targa car??

[sav man]

clutch finally died, and the diff is stuffed. so i've got the car on the hoist and dropping the engine out. And i'll get a tomei baffle kit for the sump and install it while it's out. And i'm gunna get ajustible upper arms at the same time, otherwise i'll just distroy my tyres.

[guesty]

Looks liek you got a fair bit of work ahead of you then. i loccked my rear diff on saturday. Just gotta get my car ready this week befause i go to Hong Kong and Vietnaim for a couple of weeks and get back the day before the track day.

Has anyone seen the red R32 gtst with GTR gaurds, bonnet and 25 that runs around the track lately? Last i saw of it was just after it was tuned, made 330ish i think but that was well over a year ago. Think it used to do 63's but would expect it to go alot quicker now. Everyone will see Brett O'shea's VH commodore back out there soon, wants to get under the minute mark. Did 61's aspirated with 315rwkw, just fitted a blower so that should be interesting.

[guesty]

I haven't seen The red r32 out on the track this year at all. Was it stickered up at all?

[Rocket_Rosco]

the red R32 killed it's gearbox in the first race of the first round of the TSS at Baskerville Feb this year. It's waiting the arrival of a six speed sequential gearbox from Hollinger. will be back competing in the TSS for 08.

Oh ok. Think from memory it ran a VL turbo box, didnt think it would hold up for ever. Yeah it had a few stickers on it. When i worked at Pride Autos it was down at Driveshaft City for ages getting the engine rebuilt, with all these goodies it should easily see 60's. I wonder if Cooper will have the torana out there, still havent seen it on the track yet but apparerently its doing mid 60's aswell. Everything seems to be getting quicker....

I think you are talking about Bill Fultons 32. He is already doing 60 at Basky

[Shane_954]

Yeah thats the one, any idea on his PB at symmons?

[sav man]

I get my tyres off him, last I spoke to him he had 350rwkw, and was still waiting for the magic holenger box. Not sure what he runs round symmonds though.

got the diff out of my car today

[Shane_954]

Yeah think he made that number on elf though, either way it would still be a fun car. Whats the plan for your diff? Spending the dollars or doing the cheap fix? Did you end up getting a bigger master cylinder to overcome the long pedal after travis fitted the big brakes?

[guesty]

Ah, Yes. seen the 32 in the flesh. Great car. plenty of time invested in it. is he still working as the rep for Motul?

[DJRIFT]

i am yet to see it but am keen to. a mate of mine made the carbon fiber door skins for it.

looks like the TSS will be pretty huge next year. i know at least one person that will more than likely run in all of them next year. one other that has a car almost complete but that may not get there till half way through the season and if gesty runs they will have to make a skyline class of its own. haha.

i thought he was a rep for dunlop as most guys on here get there tyres of him.

I've got a Nismo clutch pack kit for it, put's better & extra clutches in, and people that have used it said it's pretty close to a nismo pro diff but better to drive.

I havn't got round to fixing the master cylinder, i've just got used to touching the brake with the left foot at the end of the straights. I do need to replace my pads though

[woolls]

Yeah thats the one, any idea on his PB at symmons?

Not sure on his pb, But back in sept 06, he ran a 1:00.4381

[Rocket_Rosco]

Bill's the man for Dunlop tyres, Motul oils, SBS brakes and there's probably other things as well.

[guesty]

We should call him Jack of all trades then. Really looking forward to the TSS next year. Hopefully i don't get my arse kicked too much.

[sav man]

Anyone end up going to this? I spent the weekend pulling my car appart. I would have liked to have a run in the rain
