A big thank you to Powertune Australia. On my second pass @ WSID this morning i've broken into the 9's. There's still room for improvement with the 60ft.

Video of the run and updates to come later this week on PowertuneR34Gtr Facebook page

Hi Guys,

I had the pleasure of going for quite a few laps in this weapon at Powercruise 2102 :-)

A few more minor points to mention -

- on the day the track was wet, and Anthony had absolutely no fear of ripping it up as you can see on the video.

- the car is without question ... fkn mental .... it is a violent experience to sit in the passanger seat when he smashes it through the gears

- the driver is also a little mental, as you need to be to drive this car. The confidence Anthony has in his car is amazing

- he also has a constant smile on his face :-)

- I've been in a lot of high end $$$$ worked V8 cars, both road and race. This cars is seriously fast ... and scary to be in too !!!

- the Powertune guys deserve massive credit for their work on this car. I've seen Chea and his crew in action. Nothing but perfection is acceptable to them.

I love that Anthony drives the car everywhere, I have never seen it on a trailer, ever !!

For those that have seen it in person, you all understand it is truely a work of art.

For those that haven't, make the effort if you get a chance, it is unique.

And well done on hosing off absolutely everthing they threw at you in the 2013 off street drags

I'm still pissed I missed out on going for a fang this year :-)

Ken

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
