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.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
