Christ! 1.31.1 is moving! Lets see how much they have left in them. Any news on the pace of the RX7s?

thats absolutely stonking from the Sierra x 2 boys...Ive been confident they were going to go quick...so much in fact that i requested a Mitsubishi Lancer for my hire car this weekend.

a 1.31.1 is almost quicker than Benm's GTR 1/4 mile time next door. :ninja:

Session one just ended and top laptimes are like so:

1: Sierra Sierra Evo: 1:32.2480

2: Tomei Cusco Team Tarzan Impreza: 1.33.4080

3: R-Magic RX7: 1.33.5050

4: Pan Speed RX7: 1.33.6540

Both the Hi Octane R34 and Cyber Evo didn't set times. The Evo still has it's engine head off and we're told the team had to pull an all nighter last night... Nasty!

Mark Skaife holds the V8 Touring car EC lap record with a 1 31.701..... thats slicked up, these guys are running treaded tyres :ninja:

Can someone at the track confirm the Sierra Sierra EVO motor is hanging out of it? I am interested to know if the rumour floating round is true lol No it didnt blow, they are getting serious and putting the 800hp motor in

Apparently Mark has done a head gasket (which is being fixed now) and Russ broke his engine in half.

Neither of them will run today. But the head gasket is being fixed now and a new engine for Russ is on its way down from Brisbane. Sounds like a long night ahead for them!

i have a couple of short engines ready on stands here in Newcastle...as well as two complete race heads if they are needed.

Nitto head gaskets as well...they certainly cured Superjet760's headgasket issues.

spewing about Mark and Russ :ninja:

Just spoke to Dave from the team...Marks headgasket is being replaced with a Nitto item big thanks to Andrew McIntosh from Nitto for helping the guys out and Russell's engine should not be too far away.

all good...sometimes trouble like this is a good omen...i know our car has always performed well when its made us work for it.

Big Show is so hard on the gear, I hope he can get the old girl back out there!

Whats the bet someone else is doing all the work on the car? Lol!

there was no updates on the superlap site which was a bummer and was checking natsoft all day waiting for the numbers. Ended up getting on the blower but would have been good is someone was on the twitter thingo and sending out updates to all. Aparently even at the track it was hard to understand which car was what as it had the drivers names and they were in big led's that was hard to read.

Can't wait for tomorrow

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?

      What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
