Superlap / World Time Attack Challenge 2011 - Vic Roll Call


Recommended Posts

Russ I got a small vid of you leaving pit lane after I saw you were about to go out, car sounds sick! and then you flew past @ ~250 K's :D congrats on the awesome time

Quad rotors sounds the sex. Do want mad mikes car

I was most impressed with the SX Developments white S15, driven by James Anderson. Considering it only has 265kw and an internally stock engine (except for baby stage 1 HKS 256/264 camshafts) - 1:39.6 is an awesome time! the SX Developments team have a nicely setup car.

Spoke with James a few times over the weekend. Top bloke and good driver. I've forgotten what power he told me but I'm pretty sure he has more power than that :P

He said that he was leaning on the engine and was risking it. 265kw isn't exactly risking it.

Car looks super shmick too!

he has a 3071 .63 rear, 260-270 on pump 98 is about the peak power output. stock plenum too, must have mad response with that setup.. I love the styling of the car. I wanted a white s15 before I bought mine, they just look hot!

The SX car was very well presented.

Wanted the strawberry faced 180 with the 2JZ so much!!!

Wanted the Hankook girl on the right so much as well!

Super job from Russ. Chasing setup while still learning the new car, great job.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
