alot of different factors, looks of your photo you are about to straighten up but still got lock, on power, Matt is just gone into a turn with more speed, maybe a bit under brakes with ALOT of weight transfer!

what else have you done with yours doof? looks good!

and matt, hurry up and buy some suspension mods :blink:

Chubbeh, seeing there is a haze of smoke behind one of my tyres in that photo, I guesstimate that in that photo I am either hard on the throttle or handbrake. The way my car isn't lurching forward, I'm going to assume throttle :(

I'll buy suspension mods when I am closer to the suspension's limit :/

Arrrgghh she roll to the right yaaarr!!

That's interesting. Shows the tyres are working fairly well.

All PM's answered. :banana:

The R34's seem to suffer from Boatyitis as well...

That's with Bilstein shocks, kings springs and adjustable sway bars. New tyres probably helped, these Federals are the best grip you can get for the money no doubt.

Umm, how much closer do you want to get? Just because you aren't touching bits other than the tyres to the ground yet... My R34 used to drag bits and bottom out with stock suspension and reasonable tyres.

thats it, I think your at the limit already Matt!

now upgrade!! lol

Wow I'm awesome!

I read what you posted and I thought as follows

"LULZ I is gonna go to the Whiteline website, add some suspension stuff and post a screen shot showing me hesitating at buying stuff lolololololol"

I click a button without looking too closely...

Screen now says this

So Chubbs, I hope your happy with yourself :blink:

BTW, I was going to buy this stuff anyways... the only thing stopping me... was... cbf :/

Tops event, big ups to the organisers :D

Had a great time, my 'liner had an even better time.

Was great to meet some new peeps, special thanks to Peter and Eric for helping me remove my sub prior to scruteneering & Matt for sporting my cameras all day! Talking of which from the several hundred pix I've culled them to a about a hundred and here are a few selections.

Didnt know how much body roll i really had. Some of you might recognize this car as "NIC" another SAU member has the exact same color and wheels as i do but i can pretty much garantee that this is not "Nic's" former ride. I was lucky enough to get factory series 3 silver. So many people came up to me and said "ahh Nics old car". From what i gathered he must have had one hell of a ride that impressed alot of people. Anyone know what happened to it?

you're welcome, and it's "PJ" by the way my name is phil :):D

that pic you took of mine must've been the run I dragged a cone halfway around the course :D

great to meet you

Yep you won overall by 0.25s ;), oh wells, if only I didn't lock up on my last go on course 1 and wedged the stop box cone in my front bar, would have done a 26.09 I think (its 3 seconds for a cone right?), practice makes perfect, next time =D
=P just imagine how quick you'd be if you drove my MXfun though.... =P

I just checked the times I did in the Chaser on youtube, and I would of got a 26.1 on the fast course and a 8.7 in the go to whoa. Should of borrowed the Chaser for the whole day :)

I thinked Duncun laughed at me in the morning cause of the semi's not really working, and then I delaminated them by the afternoon. Should of just used street tyres me thinks :D

Thats why I didnt turn up, give you a chance.

(no, I was working :( )

So you brought in a Ringer :D

Who CAN'T spot your rims, Sammeh? The place suddenly went dark right after you left! :)

Tops event, big ups to the organisers :D

    • Ha ha, yeah, I've had one following me around in my parts boxes since about 2007 I believe. Just a little iddy bit hole drilled in the one I have to let it vent out once pressure was removed from the engine side. Still no idea what I'd put it on, ha ha.
    • Just read this... Just a little bit of a wild one! Do you think the driver was testing out a new feature/device for how to lose the cops in a high speed chase?   I also suspect, if the box has a road sweeper that does magnetic metal pick up, he does a LOT of work in the machining industry. Which is what most of that looked like, machining chips from a mill or lathe. And I bet they're RAZOR sharp! And from an environmental perspective they really do need to actually collect all of those little pieces too. I wonder how many people still cop flat tires over the coming months on that road?   As for insurance company, yeah, it'd be interesting to hear what they say to the owner. But realistically, he's right, that "It's his fault". In the way that, it was his truck that spilled it, so they need to clean it up. However, neither he, nor his insurance company may bear the end cost if they do an investigation and find out it was caused by someone elses negligence (And they know who)...
    • Yeah, no matter what bad things people can say about Julian from Autospeed, he at least was capable of thinking and his inclusion of a check/relief valve in the plumbing for the Audi boost controller, that I made a copy of and used for years**, completely eradicated that problem. **It's still lying on my workbench where I put it about, um, 18 years ago and have never found a home for it!
    • I didn't actually know this! I've seen photos of the H1, mainly outside shots, and they just look "different". I guess there'd be a few little changes like nicer rims, and probably the fact they have nicer looking paint with some depth and shine, which will make any vehicles body look different to the very flat colours of the defence force.   I've watched the guys on GHPC convert their Humvee to LS1, and they've done some really nice front shock upgrade. I'm waiting for the next video on it with the rear end done. I can't remember if they've already done it, or I dreamed it, but I believe they're also supercharging theres. They will be in the future doing proper long travel suspension too.   If you ditch out your big V8, as rubbish as it must be, send it to my place. I'll let the unreliable V8 motor and box be here. I just like V8s... So I'll find something to do with it... Even if that something is just taking up valuable space in the yard. I might have something Skyline I can send back in payment... Or even Ford Barra motors  (From memory you're in Canada yeah?) So you can then play with the legendary Aussie 4L version of an RB...  Except they don't have that distinctive random miss at idle like the RB25 does.
    • Or you mean the age old problem of early 2000's manual boost tees, where they never let the pressure out of the line between the boost tee, and the waste gate, so after your first trip on boost, the damn wastegate liked to stay open and be laggy on gear change?
