I'm using it as an excuse to justify replacing the standard swaybars with adjustable Whiteline bars.

It only hits when you've got it all loaded up in the middle of a corner and you hit a decent bump. I'm hoping the sway bars will increase roll resistance enough to stop it happening. Doesn't happen at QR or on the road, just those 2 spots at Lakeside - both have decent bumps in them when the car is all loaded up on that side.

If that doesn't work I'll look at other options. but I don't fancy relocating the loom...

well except then you either rub through loom, or fit plate and rub through tyre.

best bet is relocate the loom.

LOL

I have been a victim in my 32 at the circuit. ;)

learnt lesson, relocated now!

im looking forward to this. out of curiosity, for those who have done both winton and oran park can you put up your times. basic theory is that winton is the closest thing to oran park we have down here and could be a rough indicator of times to be had..

Handbags belts out 36s at Winton and 17s at Oran Park. But his car is not exactly easy to use as a yard stick because the thing is such a wild thing to drive. So may be worthwhile considering a GT Production STI used to run 1:33 at Winton and at OP they run 1:16

email nathan@superlap Bryce he'll be able to help with that.

it's going to be a ripper. hell I may even make a fool of myself in a car that's way above my skill level... :P

Enter the Truck Beer Man!!!

lol, it's pace is on par with my skill level. still it might give that RX7 a shake up as he comes up pit lane the wrong way at me...

Ha,,Ha,, thats as funny as Baron,,,thats a car I was asked to drive. I can't see it happening now as we are about to have a little professional argument soon.

If I do still get to drive it,,,there will be none of those shenanigans,,,so you might have to not use the truck my good man.

Merry Christmas everybody.

Love as always

Neil.

Neil you mean it's wrong to drive the wrong way up pitlane? But I seen a well known tv personality/instructor do it last weekend in his ute so it must be ok....

No Ben nothings wrong till you get caught. You should know that!!!.

No I would never drive the right way on my mobile,,,then reverse back into my garage and then reverse down pit lane again. Did i get that right???.

Enjoy Christmas everybody

Neil.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
