Actually I have them now, and hair nets to go with them.

Tony remind me b4 committee meeting and I will bring a couple along for u to try out

M

Cheers Martin!

I have a spare open face, just in case the scrutineers knock back the old Doohan Arai as it has a few chips in the paint. And another spare Arai for mates somewhere if you need to borrow one.

As mentioned you can buy helmets pretty cheap now, less than $200 for a good one.

Maybe bring it just in case I get knocked back!

Hopefully the 4000's I got with the new T3 slots will be better, the only issue so far was a little shuddering when red hot at PI, perfect stopping normally though.

I got the new DBA 4000's with the new slots as we'll. Apparently they don't crack as easy, so fingers crossed!

well sandown park is known as the brake killer. ruined my dba's nicely lol

How can 2 (or 3) manufacturers be bringing out an identical car? Is it the same deal as those toyota/holden things they did years ago?

Probably a stupid question for all you 86 fan boys, but I haven't followed this thing at all..

Toyota and Subaru joined forces to create the new Toyota 86.

Toyota shell / Subaru engine.

Subaru version is the BRZ (Boxer Renaissance Zenith) and Scion is the FR-S.

Scion is a brand produced by Toyota for the North American market to appeal towards the Gen Y consumers.

They never did crack, people just did not put enough heat cycles through the rotors before tracking it.

Do you know what sort of times you were doing around Sandown on your first time Aaron?

Though your a bit more of a hardcore driver than me

i think 1.35 was the quickest according to the vid on my phone..

first time tracking ever with 217kw or something.

to give an idea my first time out with

168kw

2nd hand crappy hankook tyres

stock suspension

bendix ultimte pads..(they almost made it though the day)

I got a 1.33.8

So you should be shooting for low 30's high 20's

if you ever want to keep people honest about lap times you can find every-one that is registered with natsoft here:

Yeah I don't think I'd be getting close to that.

I wouldn't rate myself as a driver.

I'll be turning down the boost in the R34GT-T to 10psi so should be making about ~170rwkw

Would you be happy to be my driver trainer in the morning :D?

HOWTO: Negotiating higher salary offer - K GO

If your good at what you do, and you can justify the increase then it's easy.

If you've been doing the same crap in the last year and its industry average then good luck!

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
