Ok some of my in car is up on youtube.

First up is my fastest lap in the last session of the day....

Next I have uploaded the whole last session when Russ and I were pushing each other to get PB's. Managed to get two 1:35 laps in before the rears packed up and went home - as Russ can attest to the middle of the rears were bald. The 'unintentional' drifing starts around the 4:50mark....

Finally, the off....quite clear what happened, was in 4th at around 170km/h (indicated by the speedo) hit the ripple strip on the inside which upset the grip and sent me understeering off the track. Naturally being in 4th I didn't have the responsive boost to pull me out of it and I was just a passenger. Russ was the car that went past after the white Emo soon after I *eventually* came to a stop....

Enjoy :D

Nice videos Ant, well done :(

^^ good time.

I saw your car in the pits and meant to say hi, didnt get around to it. next time.

ya the standard rotor size shit me too, once they warm up, youre stuffed.

i went the uas spacers http://nismo.com.au/pricelists/pricelist_skylinebrakes.htm (do not get the dba4000's)

but looking back, i would have gone ksport/d2/g4 http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=433&page=2

Thanks man. Hmmm, maybe sell up and get a racecar......

Here is one of my feeble attempts at a 37.

Nice. What tyres are on your car? What sort of power? Il have to come say gday next time, didnt get much of a chance to mingle with the format used on the weekend, it was flat out!

John, good vid man...you are hustling that car around for great times considering the tyres. What camera/package/software thingies-stuff are you using. Its great footage.

...PS, do you find the car being a bit pushy to be quicker, or its just how the car handles?

Well off came the manifold to turbz gasket is morning. all good, wriggle the turbo around, pull the old one off and put the new one on...

Ya, um. with the nuts done up tight, looks like there is still a air gap in the middle....housing flange warped...

I hope its the turbo housing anyway, as i don't want to take the manifold off (bitch).

Well off comes the turbo tomorrow for a better look. Off to the machinist during the week and ready for AROCA Winton on Sunday...

Sanyo Xacti GC-10 (720p, SD card camcorder)

Nokia E63 + 5hz bluetooth GPS + Racechrono software

racechrono exports to csv (vbox and kml as well) so you can convert to video through racechrono to avi.

cut the track video together with the timing using adobe premier, Pinnacle Studio etc.

Good times John. That's smooth driving. I think you need to push it a little harder :D

I'll get my vids up sometime soon.

:D errr, what... :D Is this stuff easy and cheap to do ? Or do i have to fly to the moon in a home engineered space craft for take away ? :):D

its pretty easy. just select your csv file from racechrono to avi, select the laps you want to export.

you get an avi file at the end of it.

drop the race footage and the racechrono avi into pinnacle or pre

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
