A couple from Sandown. Still doesn't really feel like *my* car but hey I ain't changing it cos it goes well even with a tard like me behind the wheel!

Haha - mate that's definitely your car because it never really felt like my car!

THIS was my car. (even though your car is definitely better than this thing ever was, it still holds my heart today).

some awesome pics in here guys, didnt expect a sub-sub section thread to take off so well, pleasant surprise!

The sliding in the dirt ones are the most dramatic and exciting i must admit, you have some cojones Harry, gotta admit, not sure i would have big enough balls to try that sort of stuff off the bitumen. Same thing for targas, scary close to trees :blink: it is a long time dream to one day compete at the iconic Tasmanian adventure however, what kind of budget would someone need for that as a minimum though?

k, keep the great shots coming guys!

here's a few of the slightly crazy 1200 coupe I had a few years ago. 230rwkw CA18DET and slow, vague steering were not a very nice combination. You certainly knew you were alive in this thing though. It was only really good for hillclimbs because if you did more than 2 laps of a proper race track, the turbo would fall off the manifold.

These are from Mt Cotton Hillclimb's corner known as Lover's Leap:

and one from Lakeside just before I sold it. This was just after passing a STi in the wet - got a little sideways under the bridge... this lap was still the FTD before they cancelled the event due to the number of cars in the wall.

Damn you've had some nice cars Harry!

Still wish I had gotten my old RX7 up there to lakeside when it first re-opened :( Silly me joined the Army instead...then sold it to buy a POS (the R33)

$15k is the minimum I reckon. Closer to $20k if you're running out of Qld like I do.

Could possibly do it tighter, but it's a "bucket list" event, so if you're going to do, then, "Do It!" :)

supra's first track day - a very wet Wakefield just after the resurfacing in Jan 2008 I think. I was planning on taking the CA18 1200 down there, but it was under the house with a broken diff and a fallen off turbo as usual...

and its second track day at QR the week after, getting hounded out of turn 6 by a couple of mates in their Z's:

I'll stop whoring this thread with my Supra now...

and keep whoring it with other cars!

the complete POS Sil80 that gave me my first sub 60 sec lap of Lakeside :)

and a couple on track just behind Ben(Marlin) - this is what happens when the front left wheel bearing craps out and gives you some serious knock-off at the end of the front straight at over 200kph...

All pretty much stock as, all driven to the track, no tyre changes nothing. Pretty much the slowest out there, but i still love it!

I think the most work I've ever done on a car at a track day is trying to set up a bloody GoPro camera. :thumbsup:

The N1 at Oran Park - man i miss Oran Park!!

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
