If you own a Skyline then any attempt to get aero will odds on ruin the look of the car. (IMO) Just make it loud and move around on the track under power :(

If you want to go aero then buy a 180SX or an RX7, their styling looks cool when you go the whole hog with spoilers etc

Haven't had a chance to post it before....top work Russ :(

Awesome time :( and I want to see you repeat that at PI to see what you can wring out of it :/

Yeah the sweeping corners encourages me that I could get a 49-50 at PI with the current setup. :D

People have thought for a long time that I was on drugs for saying that a sub 1:50 should be a no brainer. NSW lad in his S14 did a 1:47 in shitty conditions and your EC time is within 1 second of his. I have long thought a 1:48 would be on the money for my car. Have only had the one run there with the wayward wheel alignment and old Bilsteins. Never got to run again with my Teins and half a clue of the gears i should be in. :(

So, you are in charge Russ, want to see sub 50s and you nibbling at the bum of all these GTRs :(

Yep.

Before the new setup too! Anyone know of PIARC or similar events at PI? I couldn't find it on their website :)

PIARC was on a couple of weeks ago, so wont be one for a while.

by aero i meant front aero. my car has no front diffuser, no flat surface, nothing.

I you ran a 1.47 at EC a 1.48 should easily be on the card for your car at PI. It'll kind of make the gtrs look pretty bad if you can do it since they have an extra 50-120kw atw more than you and 4wd and they only lap one or two seconds quicker.

If I reinforce my boot/wing you should borrow it. Last time at PI it put some nice dints in it. Might help with a bit of rear end grip.

Hanging to try left foot break tap into turn 12 under power one day at PI. Think theres some time in it. Heard a supercar guy talking about it to transfer the weight foward for that turn. Sounds the go.

:P

I think my little wing is doing the job. It held really well on turn 1 at EC.

I would like to try the supercar one though!!!

I agree, its pretty easy to do there to in my car as its all 4th gear stuff. even up over the crest . A bit of left foot braking while balancing the loud pedal seems to work well through there.

Russ, if you want to do Dutton again this year!??! We will start having to make plans. Unless you are upgrading co-driver on me

Sorry I just read your post. I was thinking of giving it a miss this year and put the cash into my new build but if you're really keen you may be able to twist my arm...

Some in car vids of me from the event.

Good lap

Bad turn 1 and 2 haha

Troy Brisby = KEEN

    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
    • If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
