Hi guys

Just to let you know...

I have spent 8 years, and many prototypes perfecting and building what I believe to be the most realistic Racing simulator in Australia.

I spent $55,000 odd building and rebuilding an R31 Wagon a few years ago, I just relived it today showing Steve all the photos of busted diffs, turbos, gearboxes and other bits...

I decided to build a sim instead, as it was cheaper in the long run... Now I drive an Aston Martin DBR9, a Porsche Cup Car, a Mercedes Truck, a V8 Supercar, and the list goes on... :D

Rest assured, for those of you booked in for the simulator experience, you'll have a great time!

I'm going to see if I can arrange to have the Simulator at the Yacht club where my Yacht is moored, as there are a couple of Barbecues and a large covered area to entertain guests there, and a bar for drinks purchases as well... watch this space...

Some of you may even want to come out for a sail for an hour or so if the weather permits, but the yacht can only take 12 or so comfortably.

Steve downloaded the skyline mod for me this afternoon, so I'll install it tonight and have a play setting up the car for Bathurst and seeing what sort of times I can punch out. If I get time I'll record a hot lap and get it up on youtube for you to check out... heres one from a couple years ago before I got the 62" screen (yes... sixty two...)

Cheers,

Gadget

i think the guy in the video is using a level of traction control as he just mashes the accelerator with it turned off your would possibly just spin depending on gear and revs

get the game here for your own practise

ROFL...

The "guy" in the video is me... when I had hair a couple of years ago... :banana:

no Traction control... the Corvette I am driving needs to be driven like you stole it to get fast times... it breaks traction yes, but it drifts well, hence the wild steering corrections constantly!

Nothin' wrong with mashing accelerators mate :bunny:

I'm using this mod, but the older version...

thats why I've had braking issues... I read on here the update to 1.1 fixes brake issues!

I'll have a play tonight and see how it goes with better brakes.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
