It was warm, family day, I wasn't really bothering but no harm in having racechrono running in the background - I was 4 secs slower.

Also I believe the R32's 1:14 was another day, I loved my ride with Paul (silkgod), it's days like this where you get that chance, brutally fast, the rest of the world is in slo-mo.

Note they put him in that group and I observed someone who knew what he was doing and what kind of day it was - I was in for his last session, at line up, first time that day, stewards mention if he was to go out again, maybe step in to group 1.

There was no offical timing, so who really knows. The 32 was mega loud, I would have said over the noise limit. 1.14 I didnt hear that tho.

My GPS had a 23 on it from the frist sesson. I didnt have it in the car after that. No point with the sliding.

First MS event is PI on the 2nd of Feb.

Spoke to the driver of the R32, nice guy. He guessed he was doing 1:18's - 19's on the day..... was running less boost so around 390-400kw at the wheels. Said his best time there previously is 1:14.2 on full slicks, approx. ~450kw.

Hollinger sequential + ignition cut = tuffest sound evarrr

yeah anyone drifting should have been removed..... :whistling:

but yeah I think they were giving those who had done a few track days days with them more leniency

that said same Clerk of course at winton had pulled me aside for "drifting"

his comments were.

"you have been reported for drifting...I've never seen you do that in the past, take it easy past corner XXX have fun"

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
