I dunno, seems to me only the Cyber Evo and Scion have any real power to weight advantage over the HPE... And that's only the one aspect of performance. The Lotus platform has many other advantages - scale-model-like frontal area, low low low Cg, low polar moment of inertia, factory developed aero, etc Then factor in years of development on our tracks in our conditions with a very fast driver at the wheel who's very familiar with EC and the car. They won't be easy to beat IMO - if they are on the right tyres... there's no doubt they left a second or two behind due to tyre choice last time.

I havent seen yet pics of the Scion coming over :P My excel will be a lot faster than most cars eheh.

I also think the lotus deserves respect and will be hard to beat.

I really hope the Aussies are super fast!! And of course I hope mark gets a good run and wins! :P.

Tall order I know but no taller than trying to do it in Tsukuba

Farking rain at EC...i had never drivne there without a 180km/h speed limiter or with more then 140rwkws. SO when i had the TD06 and some semis i wrangled a trip to Sydney to go to EC...i planned this for about 6 months, and it rained and i binned it :P It rained so heavy but i refused to park it because i just take it easy in the rain and have fun. But it rained so heavy that water was running across the track leading up to turn 9, (after the quick left hander at Corporate Hill) Hit the water and the car just aquaplaned off the track.... so i make this point because back in 2006 EC did not handle rain or drain very well .... so pray for all the guys entered that it is dry. Otherwise a 1.5L Charade with MRT Swaybar upgrade will be quicker then you.... LOL and their is no shame in that :laugh:

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it

      Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days

      RB25 Drama's

      By Julsmadrid · Posted

      Thanks GTSboy. I will inspect the valves actually, is this something I can do while they are still in the head? The block/bores don’t look bad to be honest hey, I can still see the cross hatches in the bores and they still measure 86.5mm. I’m not sure how to measure the installed ring gaps but I will do that and take it to someone who can.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By oxisau · Posted

      I’ve had the same headache with my lowered car, scissor jack first then floor jack every time. Ended up grabbing an extra-low profile aluminum jack (about 70mm entry height) and it finally slides under the lip without drama.
