Yep, usually is a good weeked, must say it was for me, 2 new records in R33 and second outright for the weekend, not a bad effort against a Lola, March, Pilbean, Cheetah, Trojan etc.

R33 Supersprint 43.54 1st Type SV R32 51.60 9th

R33 Mountain Straight Hillclimb 46.29 1st - Type SV R32 53.88 7th

Karen had a great weekend in the 32, after her having a rest for nearly 3 years, finishing 13th outright of 80 over the two days, with 20 or more in our class both days.

I had a go in the R32 in the supersprint last run - Mark was going to kick my ass - but I got a time of 46.66 I think thats faster than 49.98 LOL!

Watch out for vids next day or so.

yeah it was a good weekend. It was awsome to see your new car in the flesh now its sorted. The part i liked was siting waiting to go and watching you and karen running together and to realy spot how much quicker the r33 is to the r32. How close did you get to the wall in the hillclimb. sumone said that you took the witches hat out but missed the wall.

Must say was close and yes witches hat did go, check out Motorsport>club level motorsport>incar videos>bathurst Hillclimb and Supersprint

Karen hadnt driven the car for nearly 3 years and santa bought her new soft Yoki's, she had trouble getting off the line - but it was cheaper than smoking the dunlops like she used too!

With a good start until 3rd gear and braking area to be honest there is bugger all difference. Must say the Air Con is great in 32, beats electric windows in the 33.

Enjoy vid's

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
