Hey Russ if you get stuck i have a r32 subframe sitting at home if you get desperate, needs bushings though, a couple of them are cracked/leaking. Otherwise its had an easy life. Most of the rear suspension is still bolted to it though, but can be quickly ripped off with impact wrench. Also various gtr/gtst diff housing and centre/gears.

Well shakedown 2 didn't go too well. Only got 2 sessions in at PI on saturday

You and me both....although for diff reasons. I went to Sandown and was gentle on the motor for the first two sessions checking knock and temps etc...then the rain hit and out went my chance of a PB :(

No matter as I enjoyed the entry to the front straight ;) and I will live to fight another day!

Good luck with the prep/fixes.

I'm in open class.

Haven't tested a GTR cooler yet coz of the need to modify piping. Lots of time has gone into piping so don't wanna have to redo it if there is a better option. Thanks for the offer though.

well i have just upgraded to a 4" thick core for my car so i have the old "hybrid GT spec" branded 600x300x76 (3" in and out) bar and plate core spare.

though if you are looking for a tube and fin design thats not much help.

Ok. What power has it 'flowed'? what's the length end to end? How much?

Put a STD GTR cooler in it Russ! Best flow kw wise and they actually allow air threw to ur rad which is a big problem with all these crappy aftermarket tube and fin/bar and plate coolers!

Just did similar upgardes to my thing, High mount and GTR cooler now making an easy 320kw and running 30 degrees cooler at Sandown!

Seems like you did okay at winton today Russ, you feeling better prepared for Super Lap now?

Yeah mate. Very happy to get a 1:33.7 at winton. Consistent 1:34's with a turn in understeer problem is great. understeered wide at turn 6 (last right kink before the cleavage) and hit a saw tooth ripple strip. Need another alignment now. It wouldn't turn right properly after that :(

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
