Hey pal, I was out there too.... saw your ride but didn't know who you were!!

Nice times indeed... I was only running low 1:30s in a 32 GTR (have run 1:27s in a Gts-t) as I was tryin to save my car from the heat!! Bloody hell it was HOT!!!

I ended up boiling my brake fluid and losing them altogether!!

I was considerate enough to pull off line and allow the quicker guys to go past and gave em a wave thru... no hassles.

Perhaps she should have been given a black flag and had a caution to let the faster cars by??

Anyways, I still had a blast... bring on the next one.... and cooler weather. :blink:

I love that second last corner at mallala.

My first track day there i was entering that corner at about 60 km at the apex in the morning, by the end of the day it was at 100+ such good fun.

^^ agreed... I was on my street cheap-ass crap tyres also.

They certainly do make the difference. Next time I will definitely be rollin' on something a bit stickier!

I had a quick word to the guy from the GP rally that was in the 33... he was runnin' 1:21s!!

yeah he had re55's and he should be running a lot faster considering he has a 4wd? last time i went on a practice day there was a dood running a 400kw gtr r33 and the best time he could run was 1:25 and that was about 22degrees on the track. you can shave at least 3 seconds off with semi slicks! oh btw throw out your interior that will save you about 20kg. maybe we should organise an SAU track day? to hire the track for a weekend day is about $5000 if 50 of us were in it'd cost about $100 each.

I think they just dont like skylines at Mallala, my self and drinkies got red flaged for oversteer and then our team leader got told if we drive that fast through corners again that he will disqualify our whole team.

I was only doing 1.27's

practice days are better you can go harder! but you need a cams licence next one i think is in april, you need helmet, fire extinguisher, and car smust be track ready , or you will break something TRUST ME! brakes,tyres,oh tyres!!!! radiator and gearbox, if you even have a hint your car is not up to abuse, FORGET it you won't have a memorable experience!!! suspended licence didnt stop me on the track you just don't say anything about it if you have a cams licence that is current ALL GOOD!

i think they got there groupings a bit mixed up. What was that red corolla doing in group 2? It was way slower than the rest in that group and just got in the way. I think they only group car by the drivers experience and don't take the cars into account at all. I was only out there for an hour (that heat was something else) did they put you in group 4? What colour was the evo the chick was driving?

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
