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

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
