I'm keen to see how Sams car stacks up against the other 2 R32's. That should be pretty interesting.

So shall we start a book now for the odds on Brisby actually making it.

No chance in hell currently leads the odds @ $1.01

I was going to do F1, but being OS for so long means if back in Aus I should catch up with family in Sydney..so family=Sydney so works out. Plus this will probably be the last time i ever get to drive Oran Park, so have to fire up the cameras and record the prodigous binning so i can win some white goods on Funniest Home Videa :yes: Cans after Superlap watching the GP sounds like a good compromise....now just to work out some Indian financial rort to pay for all this :D

Thats an easy bet. I will take it. More meaningful would be will the car be ready 12 days before the event or 12 hours :D

Bah - when are cars ever ready early in advance. I'm 2 weeks out from heading to tas for my 1st ever Rally and Benno hasn't even started fixing all the broken stuff on the car from July yet. Everything (including the engine out to fix the diff) needs to be done next week so I can do everything else the following Tuesday (as Mon is a public hoiliday) before I go on the ship on the Wed.

Team last minute FTW!

Some slower cars too...lol. Will be a question of working out the cars in your session and trying to pace yourself to them...can burn a lot of time at OP letting quicker cars through :D

Whats the cap on numbers?

Actual times from last year below. Most should be faster this next one pending weather and track conditions?

Superlap 2008

Just sent my entry for Open class in today. Sold my old CA18DET Datto 1200 track car the end of last year and I pick up my new toy this weekend. I had been thinking that the same engine in a Silvia or 180SX would be faster thanks mainly to the more sophisticated and tuneable rear suspension and the quicker steering, combined with the slippery shape I think that will more than make up for the little bit of extra weight they carry. I found a sileighty with all the right bits and pieces that just needs a bit of a tidyup and maybe a few minor suspension tweaks. Dave at Japanese Parts and Performance has been very helpful throwing in a few things I needed and organising the tune with Matty Spry from PITS. Can't wait to get it on the track!

team up sabotaging that S2000 then see who does the best job on each other's car eh?

maybe we should just hog-tie Boz and throw him in your boot. I don't want to be beaten by a WRX either... and we'll get to see if Boz really is quick in any car!

i think i might enter so i can see how my shit cars a r31 with positve camber and a fat bloke in it can beat!

solid rear end so its a drag car so should beat all the shit gtr's

(my car was built in newcastle so probably wont start on the day... farken r31!)

and its a skyline so should beat all those door chock shitta's zed car

im already blaming the coil packs for my shit 1:19 time... would have run faster if i bought new re-treads and learnt how to steer

ultimately in 3 years from now ill tell everyone i was running 1:13 even though i didnt even turn up to the event..no one will know beacaue the track is gone!..... and the bitches will flock to me!

and roy your gay arse rb20 and your reach around gear shifts are turning me on... look forward to tyre shinning your rear tyres!

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
