lol

my grill........umm....yeah

I had an incident at OP (oran park NOT old pac) few months back.

wet track + semi's = sliding...I hit a ripple strip turn 3 after spinning and it hit the bumper which knocked out my grill...well, didnt know it out, had to take it out as it wouldnt sit in properly

plus now its easier for the 2nd bonnet restraint for sprints :( hekitk ulleh

whats with all you people and no grills?

:(

Hahaha.. .mines at the panel shop... it has to be fitted in a special way cause some dooche up the coast snapped the mould on the head light :P

Sucks that I missed out on this one. I still haven't made it to an official SAU event yet - only those stupid Hills cruises that some no talent hack organises. :( Looks like a good day had by all! :P

good to see a few folk there. I was very late due to being laid up at home sick. :dry: but it looks like everyone enjoyed it which is good. :)

I was too weak to run the 34 GTR in the end (it's only stock anyway), but the silvia made 210 or so which was ok. a bit off it's usual form, but hadn't driven it in weeks and it was miss-firing badly. :)

I liked the new dyno room though, pretty neat set-up. :)

glad you had a good day :P I'll shoot over a few other pics of your car when I get a chance

Hiya Sam

Your photography is so good!

In gratitude...

My DVD of the DYNO DAY has now been sent to you. Tell us your thoughts...

Cheers, T

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
