All the cars need a full cage. Some just hide it well. I plan on being out there towards the end of next year. No idea what I'll be driving though. What ever pops up on my105 cheap I guess.

Will be good to see some more sau'ers out there

get an MX5 and be cool like me Zebbie

cheap cheap!!

buy cheap NA6 with or without rego - 3k

buy NA8 motor - $500

buy exhaust and intake - 1k

buy roll bar - $800

buy seat and harness - $500 max

buy wheels and semi's - $1500 max

buy coilovers - 1k max or get second hand 500?

rotors and pads - 200 - 400

do most yourself - about 8.5k

could get stuff cheaper too and be really tight for 8k and go racing.

or as you said - buy something on my105 already done - so many options!

and superTT is a fun class/series

On Parry's ass!! however was scary having the Monaro SS V8 behind me!

just goes to show a good mix of cars, the Pug on slicks, a 350 V8 muscle car behind and the hairdresser in the middle!

Boz and I are building a budget s13 currently. It was cheap as a race only import.

Sr20det. It'll cost about 7k caged and built basic to go racing with a brake upgrade, seats harness blah blah.

Cheap cheap way to go racing.

Andrew you should look at buying something similar, it will still take some money and talent to get an s13 to the front but to run top 10 shouldn't be hard.

Cheers was just looking at a hq. but I think the slowness would drive me nuts. But it would be nice to have a car I could race anywhere if I move to qld or if mra stops running

I have no talent lol. But I just want to get out there

The money you'll spend doing the rb20 and buying parts for an r31 would be better spent on an s13.

A serious break down would be

Cage $2200

Seat and harness $1000

Brakes $1000

Rims and tires 17 inch $1500

Safety gear $500

That's $6200 if you bought new tires and paid top dollar for safety gear like isolators, seat and brakes.

It could be done for 4k.

S13's are also elligiable for IPRA.

I'd build an r32 GTsT over an s13 but the s13 is so cheap to buy and replace if it gets shunted.

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
