I'm a little devistated; I did all my sums on the weekend and came to the conclusion that I dont have the budget to do this. Not this time any way. Looking forward to the next time its on. Untill then I'll just do some more Lakeside days, that should help put a smile back where it should be.

well i picked up fastfours today and gt2 and the benz were in it and they were bloody filthy from rain and road, also had a corner by corner detail comparo in your words around the track,

hehe! was a good read. looked like you guys had a ball!!

HEHE yes it was great fun. Nothing like putting $730k worth of cars on a dirt road :D

I am just wondering how fast fours got it, as I thought the story was for MOTOR only.

Boost button is the go, although I might raise the low boost a bit and see how goes for traction and drivability.

DiRTgarage are you going it for sure or just beer talkin? You will have some stiff experienced well set up cars to compete with, but at least getting out there. As giant will know and might explain there is heaps of time to be gained in years of experience with testing and set up and what parts work and what doesn't etc. How much faster have you gone Russ compared to were you were at 2 years ago??? HEEEEAPS. Two ways to accelerate this advantage is lots of testing, hook up with a workshop with track experience that supply parts, use other people experience with the score on the board and get advice, and use motorsports engineers, and money helps. Lots more to it than going in a straight line.

Yep Sydney kid is helping me with suspension set up and rear sway bar now etc, and some fine tuning, so I can at least get closer to giant and lofty and maybe others.

John I;m curious about the weight of your car i;m guessing around high 1300 kg;s

With out my front diff this is a good guess but wrong. Not quite that light yet. Did someone mention something about being secrets. I will say it is getting lighter every day.

Hey Chris and Anderew. Glad you boys can make it to the day.

Chris, you are on :)

Andrew, should be mate. 8.15-8.30 should be ok to rock up. Might be worth giving oran park a call on 46 46 1004 regarding fuel and pricing as we have nothing to do with that :D

OK the bar has just been raised for the 5th July!!!!!

Just had a look at the entries and noticed Mackie and Lucas have entered in the exiges!!!!!!!!!!

Peter Lucas just did a 1.34 around the creek on the weekend, while Tim Mackie did a 1.37!!!!!!!

So Lucas is 5 seconds faster than Berry around the creek and 9 seconds faster than Penlington.

Yes these times were done on slicks. These are proper race cars that have entered and are able to run in open. We are all up sh!t creek.

    • 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.
