I was driving the 32 you shot there. That was so close to a big spin but it recovered okay. Didnt realise the angle was that huge though!

Was a very well run day. We had issues the night before in true GTR fasion. Spat a front CV boot, had a speed cut on the factory ECU to get rid of and oil cooler lines etc to be made.

Between two drivers the pretty much stock GTR managed 80 something laps with no issues at all so was a sucessfull day.

Mine was a silver GTS-T w/ black rims,Post them all up mate :(

Got there in the afternoon, was great to see all the different cars out there. Man the white R33 gtst that smoke was cronic lol. Thought you were crazy still driving it round after that. Hope not to big of an issue. The R35 was the highlight to hear that thing around the track was like heaven. Cheers again to the organisers and thanks all the boys and girls for taking your cars out there so i had something to watch :(:D One day the Blue beast will be out there. One day lol.

That was me... He he he... Been chasing that problem now for 2 track days... Just trying to get some driving in as well...

In the afternoon I'd pulled the waste gate springs out, and as long as I kept the foot off it down the straight and didn't chuck it back into 3rd too early, she was all sweet and didn't smoke... unfort there was a few times I knocked it back to 3rd at like 140 pulling up for turn 2...

And that's why motors are built cheap in my car... You don't wanna hear about the first session and how "dodgy" that was... ROFL

Was a great day! Track was dry (at least for the time I was there) and cooler temps made for induction friendly boosting. I didn't have my shit together to get some track time, but did come along as a spectator. Will be sad to see Oran Park close up for good.

Here are a few pix I took. PM me if you want full size copies or perhaps a pic of your car from the day.

Hi Crew

What a massive day it was. Thanks so much for the support you all showed to come out to this day. To have Instuctors like Glenney, Bargwanna, Dyk and Seiders on hand made it so much easier for me to make sure everything was running smoothly. I was able to do a few laps in the afternoon which was great. I tried to tick every box that you would like at a track day....sorry there were no dancing girls though.

To have mechanical track support on hand if people needed it, which they did was fantastic....thanks Lofty and Scruff

From Matt Mead Photography (legend), the coffee guy, to medical staff, tilt trays, lunches, timing it was all pretty much there.

There will be plenty more of these days run in the future, obviously just not at Oran Park.

See all the pic's from the day here

    • Before starting any work, we attempted to adjust the tune. However even after adjusting it to certain extremes like completely stopping fuel, it had no effect. What fixed it was removing the Nistune Board and installing the original EPROM instead. This immediately fixed the issue. Everything should have been fine with the Nistune Board installation, so I am unsure why it has caused a problem. The soldered connector is also properly soldered. This worked when I first got the 550cc injectors, before cleaning, but that may have been a coincidence.  We ended up not installing the fuel pump hanger (at least for now). So currently running stock injectors, stock fuel pump, stock fuel pump hanger – Well everything stock except the exhaust. Now I have around €1400 in Nistune, Injectors, and Hanger collecting dust for the time being, perhaps I'll install them in the future. For now I'll enjoy the car as is 😁 Thanks a lot for all your assistance, I really appreciate all the help you have given me.
    • The turbo can’t be the issue. They’re proven to make much much power than you’re making. There is something in the setup that isn’t correct. - has the exhaust got any silly step downs? - what exhaust manifold?
    • Ok, just the way you wrote it made it look like you had the stagger the wrong way around 
    • I was getting anxious with the DVLA not knowing if the paperwork is fine or not, so I rang them. No update had been given, but I  was reassured that providing the box was ticked on the V750 then the application will go through fine. I've been checking the DVLA website pretty much every day, in the hope that it would have been done. Fast forward to Monday 29th  and I was greeted with a new screen on the check, and it finally showed as Taxed and MOT'd, woohoo! The car was in desperate need of a clean, not knowing when this day was coming it was put off. As far as I was concerned I had another 3 weeks  I'm not normally one for using snow foam, but I wanted to give it another try It hasn't cleaned up too bad considering it's 21 years old and lived on a boat for a number of weeks. The personalised number plate is J2 XBK, an illegally spaced number plate would have it read J2X BK. BK could either represent  the colour black or Baker, which is my surname. I filmed the first drive, the Youtube link will be at the end. I used the same driving route I did with the 323F V6 when I had a new exhaust installed, heres a couple of photos A few more since then Youtube video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjkFHPzjGDw
