and ill be going craigmore -> golden grove -> vili's -> mallala.

Im close to pulling out, dont know if the car will be ready on time. If not much changes a week prior to track day than I'm happy to let someone else in to my spot.

I'll take it, I've been rebuilding my 32 gtr track car for a year after a number of blow ups first at Mallala and then a N1 pump let go at collingrove on it second run. "I need some track time"

cant wait myself... :)

20% larger injectors drop in on thurs, along with the f/ic-8 ecu. tune day :whistling:

hoping the stagea feels good. does so far with the wider track rims and wheel align.

brakes will be the downer :D

I am still keen. Found a few problems with the race R33 yesterday at Time attack (brake bias, full pressure etc)

so hoping to have it more sorted for 26th. Need lots of practice with this new set up so looking forward to it.

John, seeing the 33 on the track yesterday was awesome! How many litres of fuel do you use per lap?? The amount of exhaust coming out the side is beyond comprehension!! :/

And Chad - as much as I love your 32 it'd be good to see the Stag out there (minus trailer of course :)), more family spec wagons the better!

Ah, I am not sure at this stage. We are running the car pretty rich until all sorted out.

Is great fun to drive (as you can see I was all over the track) so will have to train the beast

& try to knuckle down & get it consistent.

I am trying to learn the track at the same time as learning to drive the car so have a long

way to go. My main goal is having fun, & not wrecking the car so my first mission out there

was successful. Had a ball & car is in one piece.

There will be no point tuning the car for more power until I can drive it properly so will keep

going for it till then & when James feels I am ready we will put slicks on it & turn up the wick!

This engine is capable of some serious power & the car is very tight & quite light so when the

time is right I will certainly not be weak.

Hoping they open AIR for circuit racing again one day, because I would love a go at the straight

with a run up off the bowl............ now that would be fun.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
