Bernie and his kunt daughters can eat the carrot from my cable! I was pissed off when I heard about the camera gig. That wasnt explained at time of entry ... it helped me hide the pain of missing out.

Portimao was a great track. Better than Estoril and maybe just better than Zandvoort. It has plenty going on to keep you confused. It was harder for me to learn than any other track I have driven...though I suspect Bathurst will be a head warp for me as well. The lil R300 was so hard to drive straight....after some laps of throwing it around and losing it every secon lap the lasting fun was trying to drive it straight and get drive out of corners

If Iberia goes ahead again next year I am going to have to get the R32 over for it. Two days at Portimao in teh R32 would be epic. Would be a great track for a decent powered rwd Skyline

Hey Guys,

im always on here checking out peoples in car videos for motivation but have never pulled my finger out to put one of my own up.

This a 88 hr31 skyline that my brother and i race at supersprints and practice days. We managed a 1:07.03 with poor rear traction at the new south circuit at eastern creek.

(Note: dampers were wound all the way to hard rather than soft last track day so you can see its abit taily! has since been rectifyed!)

Has a Rb25 engine and gearbox, K sport big brakes and coilover, motec and fuel system plus HEAPS more.

Hope you enjoy the video! Cant get the youtube link to show the video here... just have to click the link

Cheers! It should be abit neater next time!

I figured I'd smell the fuel leak before she ignites and if I don't it would e too late anyhow. But I like to keep it neat and tidy looking, even though I only drive it to the track.

The Marshall's definatly noticed a skyline sliding heaps.

Alex, I saw you there on the ARDC practice day. Your car looks and sounds amazing :yes:

I was in the white Evo 6 and the good wife in the green Focus RS.

Thanks mate! Had a good day! We were watching you lift your inside rear wheel well off the ground every lap!

Quick question. I noticed your wife was in another group. We were In L2S group, what licence does she have?

Me and my brother both drive our car and paid 105 each. We asked the guys at registration if we could go in seperate groups so we wouldnt hve to share the L2S session but they were just rude an gave me no reason but "no you can't" and that you can't go in that group with a L2S licence.

So we had to share the session for the same money. Was not impressed cause it never been like that at previous practice days.

Any info would be good cause I want to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Cheers

on the weekend the WA CAMS Speed Event Series did a super sprint in support of the ARC rally guys on there Busselton Super Special Stage.

My day started ok but on my 2nd run i found out for real that concrete always wins.

Vid:

fixed it up and went out and finished the day.

    • 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.
