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.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
