I'm looking forward to this. Haven't done a hillclimb since 2007...

We'll see how the 180SX goes against my old Datto's times! I think the Datto would have the edge on it there.

the skyline and the 1200 didnt have much between them did they ?

the sil will go ok i reckon, might need some suspension tuning though :(

the handling is getting better, and have the brake issue under control now too - it was a wheel bearing problem...

46.24 to the GTR

46.3something for the 1200 IIRC

It will be the first time out for my 180SX and I'm going to be a bit rusty, so if I manage to get into the 47s I'll be happy with that...

Vehicle requirements for the training are normal road car requirements.

Sedan Race cars are welcome

Can I bring my Radical up there to play or is the lack of a roof exclude me?.

Neil.

Hi Neil,

Its not the roof, its that you can't have an instructor in the passenger seat in most open wheeler race cars as they only have one seat.

If the radical has 2 seats we are laughing, no problems.

If it has one seat you can probably still come, you will just miss out on the extra tuition that the 2 seaters are getting.

Jeff,,,thanks for clearing that up. Mine is a single seater,,,but not an open wheeler,,,so no instructor anyway.

I'm only really interested in track practice time,,,maybe this event is not for me.

Thanks

Neil.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
