So Who's going?

I know Andrew and I will be there as usual... although i am still to arrange a 4 day pass >_<

Also won't be working as such this year so will have some more free time to catch up, although my mates are now spread around in different categories not all in the GT so will be running around like an idiot

any way there should be a GTR running around in the GT category (approx 30 cars so good turn out this year) make sure you support the Merc SLS's!

Yep, as mentioned I will be there ....

I put the 5 spare tickets we had on Gumtree (since David is in China for work, Chops & Nicky moved away, Bronwyn is due with her 3rd child on 10th March, and we had one spare) and they sold in a snap - I could have sold them 3 times over!

Weather is going to be perfect too - hopefully there is some rain Sat/Sun to make the racing interesting! And they have Coopers beer this year (instead of that camel piss XXXX).

This year is going to be good, but roll on next year with the Nissans I say!

Won't make Thursday at all since so much work has come up, but will be heading in Friday just after lunch with Tyler in-tow. Will be there Sat and Sun, but as we have found before it is pretty useless to get around or see the fashion show on Sat/Sun. We will definitely catch one Friday arvo .... and I like how you call it a fashion show, rather than what it really is - swimsuit soft porn :D :D :D

I had already sold all my tickets, but thanks Ben. I saw Luke there today with some of the SAU lads, so he found a ticket somewhere! I chucked the tickets on Gumtree (which I had never used before) ... had 3 buyers buy 4 tickets, (then 4 more calls after I had sold all the tickets), and only 2 people mildly jack me around, so pretty good result really.

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
