GTR arrived back from Willall yesterday morning. I didnt have 2 days to spare right now so I had it trucked back.

Initial thoughts on the new power..... "scary fast"...the thing builds revs like a bike.

Having all wheel drive, 100% grip and 622hp the at the wheels is insane.

Anyway...I though I would try and sneak a run at WSID tonight even though I had been booted 12 months ago for running under 11.00

Went through with no issues. First run the launch didnt feel clean so I jumped on the brakes after half track for a 12.5 @ 60mph

Second run launch felt better but was still off the pace (should be doing mid 1.6s) with a 1.78 60 foot but I stayed on it for a 10.62 @ 134.81mph...bye bye Charlie for me...again.

Very happy with the MPH...means she is making good power, the crap 60 foot did my ET no favors.

Bring on the Snowy Mountains 1000...and litre bike hunting :-)

And thanks to Martin @ Willall for all of the work and the perfect tune in a very short time frame :cheers:

Car looks great Kev and its good to see you are having some fun with it! Any other plans for it or happy with how it is for a while?

Cale

Thanks Mate...that will be it for a while. I have a few things on my plate right now that consume money even faster than an R35.

Hey Kev, nice progressive power, all the way to the top.

1000NM on tap all the way to 7000 rpm.Good job by Martin.

Mid 130’s is a good trap speed, 106 at ½ track is very good.

Drop 60’ by a few 10th’s will drop the time to low 10, but good 60” is hit and miss at wsid, unless well prepped. What rpm launch?

I love the 335 rubber; Good move, as I think the stock 285 rubber would struggle.

I'm only driving my car 1 day in every 7-10 days, but when i do I call it GTR therapy!

I launched at 4000rpm

Willalls 2012 R35 did a 10.30 with the same MPH as me....but he did a 1.59 60

What pisses me off is playing with the launch control on the street I see 0-100km/h in 2.9 sec on my vbox. On the 10.6 run I did 3.4 secs 0-100

I will post the in car video tomorrow

great times Kev, i think theres another tenth or 2 in it though on the strip

im heading to heathcote soon, and plan to use the vbox to monitor my run, if i get a good 0-100 ill stay on it, if not just roll through the traps

Yes, if your 0-100 is above 3.1 get off it after half track.

See you at Cooma

Hey Kev, looks good for Time Attack street class next year. Now that it looks like some of our wrx's will not be allowed to race because of the wider fenders, your power level is a step from Marek's, and could be very competitive, although it is getting tougher. Time to break 1:40 at EC.

Son David will volunteer to drive if you don't want to drive (lol). He's pestering me to upgrade my R35, so he can drive it!

    • Nah, don't bother doing any actual measurements on the car. Just go ask the inter-f**king-net.
    • I currently have 18 x 9 +30 on the front with 18 x 10.5 +38 on the rear. Absolutely regretted it. Ended up putting 15 mm spacers on front and 25 mm spacers on the rear. Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers. Definitely would go more aggressive then what you were originally planning. Keep in mind my guards are rolled and cars fair low so you might possibly need to roll guards depending how aggressive you go and how low the car is. Im not an expert but the 18 x 8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30 Sounds like it would sit much better.
    • Hey guys, sorry i have been researching for a few months and absolutely cannot wrap my head around this. I am about to order some rims to fit my R34 Gtt with coilovers My original plan was to order Rota grid R in 18x8.5 +30 235 40 R18 Fronts 18x9.5 +35 255 35 r18 rears But then the thought in my head said this isnt aggressive enough. I want the most concave spokes i can get without too much of poke and scrubbing   So my thoughts now is  18x8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30   My question is will this be the most aggressive i could get it without any guard rolling and does the type of rim style affect the offset / size.   Thanks everyone.
    • Lower parts are there. On passenger seat, bright yellow bit is the release mount. On drivers, bright yellow bit is the lower buckle for the other side. My bet is lowers are tucked out of the way as much as possible for visuals.
    • I'm guessing its a 4 point harness, 3 of the 4 belts are visible. I'm guessing the hidden belt is tucked down between the seat and door.
