WTF, no long sleeve Super Lap t shirts.

On a positive note, Awesome turn out, lots of shiny bits in the stalls and lots of nice people.

Also the double choc with nuts ice creams me and my daughter had were sweeeeet.

I only got out there for a couple of hours on Friday arvo. My camera went flat, but I managed to get a few pics....

thanks for the photo link

1.33's for the 'Handbrake' r35 and 1.32's for the Gt Auto r35 is pretty impressive for a 'shakedown' weekend.

YESSS toe master.. we did good. john was heaps happy with the 1.35 boston did in it in the morning session, pitty the engine expired and one of the air filters caught fire in the second session. stock bottom end vq30 7900rpm 20 psi. ish.. head gasket failure or some bent rods. i will find out soon i suspect.. either way it wont turn over.

Bugger, I spoke to JP last night and it sounded like there was a bit of fiddling around getting it sorted yesterday. He was copping some shite for his aero work two years ago, now it looks pretty pedestrian compared to some of the wilder efforts out there.

He was pretty happy with the relative performance of the batmobarge since it is (was) still running a stock bottom end.

Anyway that looks like a pretty good time by Boston.

Awesome weekend. Was great to meet people face to face from SAU forums. Thanks for coming to say hi.

I'm so happy with how my car went. 1:42.43 was quicker than i expected.

So many little things in this last few days that had to be sorted but it all came together thanks to good people around me willing to help out.

Whats the rumor about Cyber accusing Sierra Sierra of running naws? great pits etc but on track was boring as bat shit. 10 mins of nothing, cars go out, 2 mins red flag, repeat. Drifting started great, then went the same way. Seemed like no-one knew what was happening out there..

Russ....awesome time mate beating some impressive cars out there - well done! :thumbsup:

Lol looks like I've got no hope of keeping in front of you at the Vic tracks now :blink:

Unfortunately that is the way pretty much all 'big' events have gone over the last couple of years. The organizers need to figure out very early on if they want a participants event or a spectators event.

i really dont have a problem with it, thats what the sports like people really dont need to be stimulated by something every 10 seconds do they ?

oh and which 32 was yours russman there were one or two there that sounded f**king angry as down the straight

thanks for lending me a 13mm spanner to fix our brake master cyl on friday :)

mayby i should wide body my r32gtr.... needs to fit big rubber

Ahh. Dave... I didn't put the forum name to the face haha.

Shame about the head gasket but good to see a decent time first! You and John would be happy I assume?

Don't worry bout wide body, Just get a hammer out! it's what we did haha

Mine had silver front guards. Has a screamer so probably the one you're thinking of.

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
