Hey giant I have not seen the article, but Ian told me about it and follows the theme I have been telling Ian about this event having similarities of vision and challenges like that great movie, Field Of Dreams. Now the sign, Build It And They WILL come, which is what the heading is in Fast Fours. Ian said he still has not seen the movie or mentioned it to Fast Fours???

kinda off topic - anyone else doing the june 5th day with John?

Sorry buddy no can do I am saving some more coin so I can get SK's GB suspension set up. So I won’t have the car ready in time :starwars: .

If only it was around the same time as the SAU track day.

I might have to come for a watch though.

Are you going?

Hey Jas, just don't crash!!!

47 people confirmed for the 5th June at Oran GP. Good to see a number of people coming out before the big one on 5th July.

How come your not driving johny. Whats goin on are ya a bit worried about these GTRs lol.

i heard you got the times down at WP too!

New shocks and springs, not bad for a first up guess :w00t:

I have a new rear swaybar underway for him as well.

Plenty of fun still to be had.

Cheers

Gary

bloody hell gary where's the fun in that!! :)

he needs to tape down his boost button !!, him and i had a great drag race the other day, really cool.

I get my jollies from suspension, more power is OK because it gets me to the next corner faster where all the fun is >_<

Cheers

Gary

unfortunately I've come across a spot of a cash-flow problem, and as a result my motorsport hobby is on hold :) and my track car is for sale (see link in sig) :P

I don't know a cheaper way to get these kind of lap times - Wakefield 1:07.40, Mt Cotton 46.33 (under IPRA record), Conrod Supersprint 49.47

Not too late for someone to snap it up and enter Superlap...

Looks like a great car. Shame it wont be there. I know your pain regarding $$$. I am selling all the gear i have been accumulating for my car engine and drivetrain wise as i am chasing some dollars OS whilst on holidays. Though i think i am going to stop short of selling the car, but still undecided. Your car would be a good buy, hell cool and quick

You do know there are turns involved.

Just kidding it will be good to have the car there.

Of all the drag passes ive ever done (29 total), ive still done many more laps than that of Oran Park. I did have a life before straight line racing.

We could have entered in Clubsprint as our car is more than eligible but we thought it would be better in opens...just like football really, no point running around in reserve grade when a 1st grade spot is available.

Im sure we will have a competitive car and team. My sheepstation is not up for grabs so its all ok.

haha glad I'm not the only 1 that didn't pick it!

Fark, ok, do i get a second guess? Garry Wilmington? LOL my friend wanted to know who did the V8 laps at Wakefield and i was like "Garry Wilmington..." then i realised he probably doesnt do it anymore...then thought Ex Supercar/Touring Car driver :)

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
