Troy,

Yeah, as Brendan said, there was one N/A civic on street tyres that was cutting some very nice lines out there, as well as Daniel in his White R33 GTR lapping under in the 1:08s...

Then there was a Race-setup MR2 that seemed to be driving in all the categories, all day :D 1:10s... Not too bad...

Personally I thought that Darren in his 200SX was doing very very well out there, except for his slight tendancy to cook it a little too much into and out of corners :(

great day :)

John will be back with a vengance to re-claim his case of beer I'm sure

Those MR2's are fantastic and if my car was still for sale until the weekend then it certainly wouldn't be now. I can't wait to get mine setup now :(

Check the times in the links I posted Roy.

 

I was impressed with the N/A Honda civic with suspension & brakes - was running very fast lap times.

Thanks Merli for those very clear pics on that mega camera of yours. I think I need some of that Just For Men hair colour stuff.

All I will say ROY lucky the zed stopped or it would have been in there.

Also Roy check the times of a burgundy GTS-T 1 min 12 and it looked relatively tame, very impressive.

I was looking at that... is it std turbo with good rubber/susp/driver???

For Oran Park, i think a certain Zed should be attacked with a holesaw, RIP non structural panels :P

1:20 with compliance tyres for me.  I tried so hard to wear them out but they still have heaps of tread.

I thought those MR2's seemed fast.

I'd say your probably not trying hard enough... come up to Oran Park on Sat and I'll demonstrate how to kill a few sets!

Yeah my car first had blown piping on the cooler then a leak in the exhaust manifold. Should be back on the track next week if I can get the time to fix it.

Was a real shit as I was just getting used to the new suspension and tyres too!

That red gtst was kinda insaine, I think modified cars of that level should be in the race car and gtr group.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
