1700kg+ R35 Around Wakefield In 1:01.34 Seconds?


Recommended Posts

Heads up for those who track in NSW; i believe a new benchmark has been grafted today at Wakefield. Marek ran a stunning 1:01.37, mods include catback, Willall E85 tune, FIXED wing, new slicks and a talented driver.

Insane.

I believe Marek is driving the kids to school tomorrow morning in the car too!

R35: The supercar for anyone, anytime, anywhere. Nissan delivered today!

I am simply amazed at what this car can do with some simple mods.

Congratulations Marek.

Now, where's my chequebook....

Excellent work Marek.

How did you find the new tyres?

Duncan I am sure with a little more development sub 1 min is possible.....and there aren't many tin tops that have gone under 1min there.

wow thats moving... congrats Marek.

Dunc, Marek I know you guys love to track your cars and are setting benchmarks at EC and Wakefield but seriously have you guys thought about coming to Sprint Bathurst in Nov?

Maybe you have driven the mountain before??? but you MUST get your GTR's to Bathurst and have ago with 09GTR and myself this year.

After you run 80+ laps around Bathurst hitting 280-290kmph down Conrod you probably wont want to go back to Wakefield????

I did a couple of hillclimbs at Bathurst earlier this year, good fun.

Not sure i will have time or the budget for sprint bathurst to be honest, too many other events happening. Also with the frequency of bathurst events (one per year?) not sure it would ever be enough!

Thanks guys

I was going to post it tonight but Duncan bit me to it :whistling:

Martin, thanks for the tune, the amount of power is unbelievable the car was spinning wheels in 3rd gear

The new slicks work very well I wish I could afford to have new slicks for every track day.

I think with well setup good suspension sub 1 min is possible

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
