Hey Peeps,

I haven't been on this site in a LONG while but thought I'd open up a new account.. I used to own GTR001 which I sold to Damo on here !!

I have just recently brought another R32 GTR from NSW and I get it Friday morning and am contemplating whether to enter it for a bit of fun next Saturday at Powercruise but don't have a great amount of knowledge on the event ot time as I only get the car the morning before Powercruise :blink:

Firstly what do I need my car to be prepped with to enter ?

What do I need to have ? Helmet etc ?

Also it will still have plates from NSW on it ? Will that be a problem ?

Also what does it cost to enter ?

What time does it open for cars ?

Also what event is there in the way of racing ? (On track street racing :blush:)

Any help would be sweet !!

Cheers

Tenille

well this event is based on street cars so its based as a run what you brung event with the requirment of the car being road legal. Mainly just no fluid leaks.

Personly flogging a r32 gtr as soon as you get it allways going to end in tears. Im pretty sure 80% of the people on here have either blown up or crashed a r32 with in the week of getting it or know some one who has. They are considered a fragile car untill you have a good check over them.

i think the entry this close to the event is about 260 bux. But all then info you have asked for is on there web site.

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
