yeah, im like jack. run 31ish cold, but my crappy street tyres i ran one day i had to drop them to around 33 in front and 35 in back to help get round the track properly lol.

think mine atm are around 35 all corners so gonna play around with them sunday, might borrow my mates portable pump.

Ok, I've got my laptop all hooked up to the haltec so that'll tell me what my temps are while I'm in the car, just need to find a way to secure the laptop in the car so it doesn't fly around and KO me in the face.

6 Cell battery and Intel Atom should be good for 5 hours at least on battery :)

I've only got street tyres so they're only going to be good for two laps at a time anyway.

... oh harden up. Tassie so cold you won't need a oil cooler for 3-5 laps ha ha ha.

If your planning to data log with a laptop often, then look at getting a panasonic tough book.. can kill em!

i've never used r1r's but evo's like a good 35-40psi hot on my car if that helps :) . actually , does anyone wanna give me some advice on semi's tyre pressure, i've never used them before :S

Have you got a ir temp gun? If not I can bring mine if you need.. Just grab the optimum temp range v pressure chart for your tyres. I say run em hot and hard for a couple of laps, bring it in- drop the pressures hot and start from there. We can also measure the temps inner to outer to see if you have enough camber and even load accross the tyre.

Man I'm pissed my 32 needs a re-tune.. Maybe I'll get the stag out there! ha ha ha...

Forecast for Sunday :   

Cloudy with a morning shower or two. Light to moderate southwest winds.  

Hopefully it stays dry after the few showers, Max of 16 so may be a little dreary :P Called in to check on my front & rear adj sway bars today but still not in yet, I reckon they'll be in on wednesday after the long weekend. Just missed!

Just turn up , will cost you $120? or something if your not a hscc member (pricing is at the start of the thread somewhere) . Helmet, long sleeve shirt/jumper , sturdy trousers and shoes and a roadworthy car :) . I won't have the semi's thanks to me not having the chance to put them on rims , so i'll just be using evo's on the front and some dirtty 595ss on the rear :ph34r:

Your a bloody menace jack going out partying when your cars half finished I don't know. You should be sensible like the rest of us and have the night in ready for a big day of racing tomorrow! Having said that you better not bug me all night trying to get me to come out too or I'll turn my phone off!

I might pop down tomorro for a look. Won't be doing any laps as i'm broke. What time is every one getting there/hanging around to?

Oh and i assume its at baskerville?

Cloudy periods though fine. Light to moderate southwest winds.  

Precis: Fine.     Max: 16    

 

Looks like the gods of motoring may provide us with a dry track after all!

Hope you can make it toffy, I don't think I've seen you laurel before? If I can help at all (as unlikely as that is) let me know :)

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
