changed my mind. I'm going to man up and bring this down for the main game instead. it will probably mean i spend most of the day under the car, re-attaching the turbo each time the studs stretch/come loose but what the hell... someone has to play the cannon fodder role!

quick question - what's the format going to be? do you break us up into groups and have (for eg) 10 minute sessions each like a normal supersprint, or do you get a series of single attempts to set your time - ie out lap, timed lap, in lap?

Oh yes Harry..bring the Datto 1200!!!

This beast is one serious weapon. I have driven this car a couple of times over the years when the previous owner had it. For those that know wakefield, I did a 1.07.20 in it a couple of years ago on old R compounds. I know the car is much better now from when I last drove it.

I love this car.....go the Datto's

HAHAHA I think from memory Jas it was retreads and the trailer. Hang on a minute..I think you car was on the trailer!!!

I still love you Jas, and yes I will let you know when I have a day free for some GP tuition :)

Steve, I am hoping that you will not need the cage so as soon as I know I will let you know. From what I have been told so far you wont need one but I need to clarify that. Either way the class you want to run in next time will not require one :D

Awesome :)

I think its still got the same tyres now!

sheez Bozzy - so much for being an unkown quantity eh?

but that's still seconds off the pace of the Exige - and that's with you at Datsun's wheel! then factor in my fat untalented arse slowing the whole show down...

should probably be a question mark after cheap too...

Expensive Dato race car is cheap cheap Nissan race car. Expecially what is turning up for open class.

very true. its all relative.

have you had your Zed on the scales? I know you've got lots of power but that's still a very impressive time for a big car at a reasonably tight track like Wakefield.

Now that the wheels point straight all the time and it has some consitency in the camber curves it should be a fair bit faster and noticeably easier to drive. Particularly on the technical tracks. Hence why I reckon there's a good 5 seconds or so available at OP GP for a 1.13 maybe a 1.12, the 1.18 doesn't align well with the other times.

If John can coax that out of it on the day, I reckon it will be hard to beat. It's certainly the sort of times, given a dry track, that I expect will be needed to be in there with a chance.

Cheers

    • I didn't think about how a circle works before, dumb.  Before, I had .9mm restrictor bolts but I can't use these cause they were shorter aluminium bolts that just tear off their threads when tightening since the OEM lines are thicker than the shitty braided one that was installed previously. Now I use longer 1mm stainless steel restrictor bolts. I think the difference will not affect the health of the turbos, but I guess I'll have to drill out the main feed bolt as I agree multiple restrictions sound dodgy. The one that was installed with the braided line was just too short, but completely without a restrictive hole.
    • Tomei or Nitto, don't use the OEM one or Cosmetic ☺️
    • After cleaning up a rusty cooling system in a 33 gtst that's been sitting for years it seems to have cleaned out the head gasket too haha. It seems the Tomei metal gasket works without machining surfaces? Or put oem? Also should put an oil restrictor while the head is off? Thanks
    • Thanks, I definitely saw the more expensive options from Crank and driveshaft shop. Thank you for the D-max option.  Still hopeful someone has an OEM out of the box option I found that the 300zx NA Left drive shaft is a good match for the Right on the R33. https://www.gsplatinamerica.com/product/ncv53040 Just need to find Left CV for the R33, I cannot find any <=22" axles.
