I have a strange feeling 90% of the gains will be from the driver though, might chase you around a bit on the day and see if I can learn some more mad skillz.

I'll sit in for a few laps, be warned, there is going to be a lot of yelling.

i'd highly suggest a practice day before getting into competition too much , going fast around a track can be different to on the road . perhaps a sua track day should be organised?? i'd be keen to go out n have a bash and offer pointers to anyone who is looking for some :)

You said this ages ago, and it was the first suggestion of a SAU track day, but I'm checking in your other suggestion to offer pointers to anyone who is looking for some (e.g. me, and I'm sure a heap of other people out there). Would be good to see you out there mate :)

I'm hoping to make it for my first bash on a circuit, new exhaust housing should be here tomorrow and hopefully my nistune the day after that :) Bought some 17s with RE55 semi slicks that clear my brakes by about 0.5mm with spacers, so im all but set to go :nyaanyaa:

There is going to be subaru's there? i'm yet to meet a subaru driver who isn't a complete twat. I'm sure there out they, they must keep a low profile though.

Yeah, I'm not a complete twat... I suppose the skyline cancels it out a little.

Judging by the interest on Rexnet, I'm thinging 4 Subies will show up.

I too got some RE55s :D

Haha, I'm counting on this rear wing for some epic downforce! or... maybe... perhaps that's unlikely? :P

Hopefully these new sways give me some more stability through the corners, and may actually play with the boost controller to coax out a couple more killerwasps from the engine on the day.

Definitely up for some tips guys, looking forward to cutting down some times and taking on some knowledge. I'm sure a heap of other guys out there will want some tips to get them around the track faster with the same hardware thumbsup.gif

what time should i try to be there? probably gonna have to leave pretty early, travelling from launceston..

Last time we had people turning up between 9-11am, everyone had a fairly good run on the track after then and it should give you a heap of time to head down :) I reckon I'll be getting there at ~9:30ish on the day so I can squeeze a few laps in early. Not sure on the proper weather forecast for Sunday yet, but if there's the chance it's going to drizzle in the afternoon I'm getting as much dry track time as possible.

I'll be getting there at like 9 so don't get up too early, last time we packed up around 3, but I reckon I'll be going till the sun goes down nyaanyaa.gif

I've put a passenger seat and seat belt in just for you ;)

can anyone tell me how i will go with 215/17 inch RE55 semislicks all round? they are a bit old, just a bit worried they may not grip up too well, i have some 245/18 RE55s i can take to put on the rear, but nothing else other than street tires for the front pinch.gif

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
