I think I'll be timing officially this time with a proper track timer - plus the old man will bring out his mega uber camera so pics will be available after. Gonna strap the video camera in the car too - so track footage should be cool.....

bit more camber for the track Chad?

I wish, but i dont have any camber adjustment. Just gonna make sure its all lined up right, cos the toe in on the back looks way out on one side.

Im keen to come have a look, interested in getting my car into this sort of thing, goes well through the hills but would imagine it would need a few tweaks to get the power down around a track and run a decent time. Im interested to see a few of the set-ups other higher powered GTRs run.

A few questions:-

Is Anyone alowed in the pits?

Does the day still go ahead if its a hot day?

What time it start, and how much $ to spectate?

Cheers

spectators are allowed anywhere except the "car park" where the cars line up to go out onto the track, and the track itself. The cars all park around the sheds, you can only have one opened if you pay for it. So when people aren't racing, you can wander around and look at everyones cars, if thats what your hinting at :thumbsup:

Would the exact same mounting work for a 32 gtr? my cooler kit is coming soon (same except only 16 rows and braided lines) and I don't even know how to take the front bumper off.

How did you make up those mounting brackets?

Im pretty sure it would mount the same in a GTR, depends on what BOV you have? I've got a single aftermarket one so it doesent take up much space.

I made up those brackets at work just using some 3mm alloy sheet that i cut up in the gillo.

It should be fine Luke, there's no car checks or anything.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
