18" brakes? get the tape measure out, you need to run std size wheels in Targa. Don't think 16" wheels would fit. :-)

:D i wasn't going to say anything about the brakes or the fact that the suspension set up would be illegal as well (unless its just the TEIN set up)

Either way a built GTR is always nice to see on the road, sounds like there not taking any chances with a new motor/box :/

32 GTR price $12000 - $200 000+

Its not the JIGSAW racing 32 is it Skip???

I thought jigsaw racing's was a R33? Targa will only let you have adjustible dampers, averything elce must be stock (even hicas :/ ). And this year you were allowed to run option sized wheels (18x9 on R32, and 18x10 R33) but that rule might be getting reversed.

Is it matt's blue R32?

The V-spec GTR is 33 but there is also a 32 GTR getting around with the JIGSAW Racing sticker.

Rickard's was running a single set up or has he changed again???

I doubt he would take it to a local servo anyhow unless it was to get a wheel alignment or something along those lines.

Hopefully Benno can post up about the wheels and ruling for TT08...

Im still trying to picture 18" brakes and the wheels you would need to clear them :/

If the work shop is in kingston, its Matts Blue GTR and all they are doing is just putting the engine in its really a RacePace built car!

Ah that makes sense then, will be good to see it back in action again as its been off the road for a while (longer than mine :spank: )

Did he stick with the single or go back to twin set up again Ray???

Optional wheels sizes will be OK for TT08.

R33 can contuine with 18x10, R32 17x9 or 18x9.

Yeah you can run them but you can bet onyone who does is either slow or has illegal diffs.

(Not that anyonew seems to check!)

An R33 with tarmac rally legal engine gearbox is etc is not goiung to pull 18 x 10s.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
