13 of us at Sammi's place discussing AutoSalon...

We are keen to sort out our entry list for Auto Salon in Melb (April 3 & 4) and would like to know who wants to enter a car?

Currently looking at...

Andrew – Bayside blue R34 GTR

James – Golgo

Ash – R31 GTS-R

Dave - Purple R31 coupe

Ron – Deep marine blue R32 GTR

White 1966 Prince racecar

Dark blue R31 GTSR racecar

Al – Wine red R33 GTST

Adz - Black R34 GTT

We'd really like Leewah, Raza (R33 4-door), Endless (silver R32 GTST), the DoLuck T1 R32 GTR, and Denham's newly tuned toy - as they spring to mind ;)

The idea is to show the whole range of Skylines - with a focus on cars that are a bit more 'unique'. If any workshops are keen to support (read $$$) the stand (ie: Ice, BMT, UPI etc) we'd be happy to show your cars and whore the logos/stickers like we did last year for BMT (obviously we'd prefer a Skyline, but not nessecary - say, ooh, a Supra?) :)

Anyone keen to show their car - please post pics and info here - we'll make up a shortlist and go from there. It's $100 per car to enter (includes dyno comp). We were limited to 16 spots last year - so get in early.

Also - to help out with staging costs - we'll have a couple of fund-raising events during March (perhaps even an 'entry' fee on the GOR cruise). Anyone keen to help out at the event, so that you can be placed into a 'roster' system, please also make your interest noted.

There will be t-shirts available - if workshops want to let us know their support ASAP - we'll place logos on the shirts :)

More info as it comes...

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
