Use the Main gate on Dandenong road . The back gate will be locked... :D

See you there Wayne

State Forecast for Sat : Early fog patches then cloud & wind increasing. Showers developing in west, spreading to east late.

Should be good if the rain holds up...nice and cool = fun times for all.

Sorry, maybe i'm slow on the uptake :D but are spectators welcome even if we don't know anyone competing? Myself and a mate would probably like to come down just to check out the atmosphere and see how these days progress.. Neither of us has a car which is track ready at this stage..

Or do you need to be the 'guest' of a competitor?

Cheers

I hope the rain holds off. If any ones going from nothren subs let me know.

I'm going from the northern suburbs, I saw your car at GTech last week, I take mine there as well.

was a good day...I pushed my current tires to the max and came off a few times but its how it needs to be. My new break setup is much better and hold up for 5-6 laps easily. Need new tyres...

good to meet some poeple

Awesome fun it was - I'm very pleased with how the V35 held up. The Brembos went on endlessly!

See you next time.

Is anyone posting pics?

I had a mixed day. Turns out I have a blown headgasket and 1 seized piston in my front right brake caliper.

You can't get much better value for money though, I would recommend one of these days to anyone.

Wasn't there somebody taking photos or video on turn 1 all day?

Some pics that I took are attached...

I have no idea where those other photos and videos are going to be posted. There is no indication on the Driver Dynamics website.

I've developed some squeaking noises in the rear end, particularly when reversing - any ideas?

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
