I've tried my hardest but i don't have a trailer or a car with a tow hook. Ive also had no luck finding someone i know that has one. The renting path is also not going to work just becuase of how early I need to leave.

So, what happens if something happens to my car and i can't drive it back up to melbourne? Is there an sau club trailer or can anyone recommend a towing company as a last case scenario?

To the guys looking at the RS3's.

I got my set for tad over $880 deliverd from tirereack.com. 255/40/17

Couldnt fond them for less than 1100 locally......maybe there is somewhere but thats the best i could do.

They do feel very soft. But they only just made it on the car so havent actually driven on them yet.

Ive had KU36 and RSR's so it will be interesting to see how they compare.

Fingers crossed for some good weather. Good being cold, windy and cloudy....but no rain!!

Cheers,

Dave

Hi Dave,

Will be good to see what you think of them.

What times have you done on KUs / RSRs and what tracks?

Also what car?

Will be good to get a comparison from another user of the KU / RSR.

Hey Femmo,

Its a 33 GTST.

Its had some changes as time has gone on so hard to directly compare.

The RSR's where about 1-2 seconds quicker around winton than the KU36's but they go off after 1 lap!

Maybe its the weight of the car but i never did a warm up....just cruised around for the out lap and then did one timed lap. Although this was during the warmer months.

Looking at my times i get slower after that first timed lap, and you can feel the under steer getting out of control.

I think my best is a 1:41.X on KU's and a 1:40 dead on RSR's.

To be honest i only ran the KU36's for one track day as i didnt like them at all. They were progressive but also went off really fast.

But they where cheap so i suppose its a compromise.

Looking forward to the RS3's. Ive also got more rubber on the front this time so again will be hard to compare directly.

Cheers,

Dave

Car came back with 260 at the treads. Not bad considering it's a tiny 21U housing.

Gah, have to wait 4 days though. 4 painful days!

damn i'm lagging behind

oh well next 18 months is just for shits and giggles anyhow

I would have liked a little more up top, but I suppose that is the limit of the small housing. The larger OP6 housing maybe an option down the track, but WILL require larger rear tyres for sure.

Maybe WTAC 2013 with 280-290rwkw and 285 rears.

I'm up for a garage and in group 2.

no red bus for Katie to keep warm in this time!

I think you can only fit 2 cars.

Do you have to call and book in advance like sandown?

You can call and book.

They only fit 2 cars.

Dave I saw your car in at Tyrepower yesterday getting the O3G's fitted. Much excitement.

Changed the rear tie rods last night....fark it's the bloody HICAS ball joint that has movement, FU Nissan!

The pain the follows removing that SOB with be heavy on the beers.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
