Had a very bad start to the day....

Intercooler hose popped first lap, and then it popped again on the first lap of the second session....

This is the results of 5m flames

Once we got all the sorted, had a blast!

Thanks to Richo, Rob and the guy with the hoses & zipties for helping me out!

Very happy with my times today, once I started to grow some balls

what a great day! first time at Winton and definatley worth the drive. I dont think you could ask for better weather, crisp cool air and sunshine as well.

just been playing back the laps in my mind over and over on the drive home and i m sure ive found a couple more seconds! :ph34r: cant wait to go back.

Tony & Rob hope you had a good last session? Tony i wish i had seen those 5m flames, thats a classic.

lol, pipes need beads on the outside. Also, you should be able to get 1M lengths of silicon pipe off SAU silicon guys to replace the rubber poo that is on there atm. That should stop them blowing off.

I'm hoping someone has video of the flame!

was good to get out there. now i gotta keep going to track days to learn how to drive!

good to see you got some good laps in after the dramas tony!

Yeah the first morning was so frustrating, only 1 lap in 2 sessions and working furiously on the car to get in right for the next session :/

video of my fastest lap of the day.

pretty happywith the lines, was getting some bad understeer tho, think too much grip from rear. need semi's for front next.

got my PB just in time.

made it half way to shepp b4 the rear brakes gave up the ghost and went metal on metal

so need to fix them and a windscreen b4 HH.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
