I was thinking your place would be good for post race punch up and beer fest. any scores not settled on track can be dealt with the old fashioned gentlemans way. with a glassing.

I love that pic on the previous page that you posted John.

I remember that day.

In the pic I can see my fellow driver trainer Benny in the silly seat with Jason driving his GTR.

At this stage Benny has fire coming through the floor and trying to burn his feet :P and I think he may have been telling Jason....can't remember exactly what though :cool:

lol. jason's car rocks. It once melted my shoes to the floor in the passenger seat. great fun though.

Was that Ben in there, he is game. Took three fire extinguishers to put this one out. I would never get in a car at the track with this crazy driver.

RE Dave Loftus I think he could be a dark horse ring in that might thump us all. He certainly knows how to set up a car and vast experience and good driver. More power and going on a diet hey. I migth get that front diff installed.

don't write jason off too much you boys. don't forget his place is about 5kms tops from oran park... I reackon he's done a fair few sneaky laps around there by now. :)

don't really know how Loftus could ever be called a dark horse, if I was putting money on someone it would be him.

lap record of 1:15.5 in restricted IPRA trim, set in race conditions and on 048's is pretty impressive. He could turn up in that spec on better rubber and knock a couple of seconds off.

nathen i never told you i had retreads so stop talking shit and i will see you at the track big month

Jason, As I explained to you on the phone after you had a go at me I NEVER said anything about retreads I said you were on rubbish semi slicks. NEVER did I mention re-treads. Please read what I have said next time before you ring and abuse me. >_<

Re Lofty I meant no been in our scene as such, but obviously will be.

Yep some big cars, big ego's will be turning up. At least we won't be fitting for the same corners, so should be tidy and only bruised ego's.

Go Jason have a go.

shame our car doesnt qualify for the Clubsprint class >_< there is no way in hell i am even going to go near the track with seasoned racers like the Hi Octane car and the likes on the track :( not to mention the lack of roll cage in our car :(

But its not a race. Everybody will be racing the clock so there wont be any door to door racing. People show each other lots of respect with space to race and pass. Nobody wants to get held up on a good lap so the format lends itself to a wide cross section of cars and drivers. Give it a go!

ah, fair enough. I guess he's probably less known in these circles.

certainly are some fast and interesting car/driver pairings in open class. If I had any confidence in my CA18DET Datto giving me some value for my entry money instead of an early return to the trailer, I'd have EOI'd that instead of the Supra road car. wouldn't have been in the running outright, but would have liked to see how she stacked up against some of the rwds. But I'll be there with the Supra in Clubman having some fun and a front row seat to see these Open class weapons.

RB26 S14 John :D Its not getting caged so it wont be getting entered. I would have taken it out just for a thrash and an excuse to get it round corners but the lack of roll cage rules me out straight away.

Roy, not entirely aware of the program but knowing some seasoned racers will be out on the track i am not about to get in their way. I have literally about 30 minutes of circuit time under my belt and even that was many years ago. And even if it was individuals who had the track entirely to themselves the lack of roll cage rules me out :D

    • Started sifting thru my brakes to decide which ones I will run on Clem   Made me think I should just put them all on Silver...for when brake fade just isn't an option   Should be able to bump rotor up from 343x32 to 348x36 off Supra. Not sure if the Supra annulus is right for the Alcons or APs but trying g to find a used Supra\M4 rotor to test fit The Alcons seem to gain 1-2mm clearance which all helps  
    • So car is getting a few mods to the cage and some jacking points welded in Meantime Ol Silver gets a new gearbox and shiny clutch.  Old Box is being set aside for Clem  
    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate
