Was a SICK day & I really had a ball. Drove my Race GTR for the first time in 2 years & also took my

new R35 out for a few fun laps as well. Good to see the Skylines out numbering the Porsches & Ferraris!

Fun to see a $700,000 Ferrari doing off road work in the paddock as well!!!

Congrats on the laps times Martin - you really know how to boogie.....

Hey John,

What im curious about is which of the GTR's you had more fun in?? Hows the 33 go compared to the 35?

Nope, was a private track day. No spectators are really alowed at these days, as they don't want 1,000,000 people wandering around and getting in the way. You gotta know someone to be invited and go as their 'crew' :)

i was only invited because i complain a lot. :)

Like a little whiny bitch :)

And you got to sit in an R35GTR, then had the gall to complain you didn't get to actually drive in it .... pftt :P

haha yeah the roar of Munro's R33 was beyond belief down the pit straight wall .... but you gotta expect that fron straight pipes out of a 600+ rwkw beast :)

Despite my sore ears you couldn't wipe the smile off my fae :)

dont think ive ever heard anything so unapologetically loud before...

Yeah the race GTR is LOUD. The R35 is QUIET. The amazing thing is that is is not much slower.

To answer the question.... on the track the Race car is raw & crazy. nearly 500kg lighter with the

holinger sequential box it is just awesome. Didnt get a lot of laps in due to brake fluid going off

but did pull a few low 17s just getting used to it & it has lots of potential. Cant wait for another go.

The R35 is just amazing. Had a roll on from 90kays with my street GTR behind & the midnight purple

R34 GTR with 480rwkw & he got 1 car length & I slowly pulled him in. Unbelievable. Was shocked.

They are freaks & I havent even touched it yet (go actuators/midpipe/COBB etc)

Does feel heavy on the track though, but did do a few 19s in it.

Keir was doing low 16s !!! in his R35. As I said they are freaks.

So race track - Go R33 (stay off pit wall if you value your eardrums)

Street/hills - Go R35

Making everyone deaf - Go my street R33 on wastegate

Nissans Rock.

hey munro

pls pm me your address so i can mug you for your cars :)

-D

so whats the end result with the 32 bro??? what broke???

so how is the paint on the lancer??? my mate rang me and said you got it done there. thought you would have sold it by now

Got the 32 back today. It was the clutch pedal box, one of the welds snapped off so everything has been strengthened. Price seemed a bit steep but i guess that's what you pay for repairs these days. Also now i got a crook old shaking with the wheel when i drive along. I think its time for a wheel alignment. :down:

The lancers paint is awesome all i had done was a touch up from where a kid split the paint after hitting it. All good now. Havent really had the car out on the streets for anyone to have interest in it really.

Damn....... that's a hard spotting act to compete with!! :P Haven't even seen an R35 in the flesh yet - let alone race one at Mallala!!

Saw a damn nice black Stag at 12pm heading north on Brighton Rd in Glenelg today - custom plates - JBT (or something like that). Anyone's here? Looked tough as.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
