Hey Mattman

Of course you can come to take some pics. HAHA and yes I know who you are :)

Did you want to come Neil? The Radical is welcome as it is really not an open wheeler ( no exposed wheels )

I instruct at the Radical days, so if you would like to come out and play you are most welcome to. Has it got a passenger seat so I can come for a ride ??

After todays effort my old "slow" GTR should be able to make it.

We didnt break anything to major, just needs some AWD back and a few new master cylinders.

Shame you missed today at wakefield John.

Was kinda an interesting day.

I would have loved to John but I need the car corner weighted and aligned which didn't happen last Saturday unfortunately.

Sorry no passenger seat in a Prosport mate. My steering wheel is pushed more to the left than an SR3.

Have a merry christmas John and don't work to hard.

any good places to hire a trailer? ryde area or penrith area?

Buddy,,,hiring a trailer is a hit and miss affair,,,most of them are crap. No brakes,,no tie down points ect.

Good luck is all I can offer you,,,then again it's only at Oran Park so if you it take slow you should be alright.

Neil.

Yeah that starlet was damn quick, as you would expect from basically a full on race car setup...

It was a good day, my first track event ever and I was getting 55.8 (handtimed) on end of their life nangkangs, they were mushy by the end of each run... Damn I flogged them...

A great day had by all. Thankyou to those who turned up :banana: Lofty in the starlet was doing 47's. Not bad for a car that is only 1800cc, has a restictor on the turbo and had yokohama controlled semi's on all fours that were 3 years old. It was the cars very first run, so will be faster by the time it rolls out for its first race meeting in late January.

For those of you that don't know it is built to Improved Production Car regs ( IPRA )

Mattman, your photo's are awesome as usual :)

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
