Do you mean you take your front splitter off for trackdays? I just have a piece of webbing tied to the tow hook and out through the vent just incase.

r u driving down in the morning? given we live in the same suburb maybe meet at the BP and head down.

hey joe, yeah i need to see this webbing youve done and steal that idea. for the time being though i have to take it off. i somehow hit the front lip going around one of the corners at sandown. dunno how but ive cracked it. ive become quite a pro at taking the splitter off but i'd rather not.

which bp do you want to meet up at?

First time out at Phillip island had a great time

Got a 2.08.4 best lap for the day

Thanks to anyone who helped me with my alarm issue had to listen to it all the way home

I just removed it so don't need to put up with it anymore.

Looking forward to the next round of Motorsport.

yes good day at the island. great to catchup with all the SAU lads as usual.

new surface is super smooth and quite a few pb's today I think!

overheard a conversation from the winkleporker porsche garage "theres a datsun doing 44's!" hilarious!

Some Datto though. BTW did a bit of 911 munching myself, my wife informed me that it would probably have been a geriatric driving - nice!

Thanks goes out to the crews that make these events happen, special mention to Nick Luxton who fixed my suspension at the start of day, which meant I got to enjoy one hell of a day.

Another first timer at PI, farken loved it. Best time was a 1:59.6762. Have never heard my tyres squeal so much, love to get back out there with some decent rubber!

Have to thank the bloke who came out with me first session to guide me around the track and gimme some pointers. I'm f**king rubbish with remembering names but he said he had a couple fords (F6 typhoon and Capri's) and had taken a charger around the track? Either way, was really helpful and much appreciated.

What a day!!

Thanks to the WRX guys and gals for putting on another great event. Plenty of track time for anyone who wanted it :-)

I think everyones tyres were squealling......seemed to be the new surface as my tyres are usually silent.

Good times with Richo and my bro Chris thrashing around in close company!!

Well the bearings in my front turbo that had done all of 25kms decided to let go again - session 1, lap 1, turn 1!

The jealousy levels were very high. Track was looking beautiful and the weather conditions pretty much spot on.

Looked like another strong showing by the SAU crowd...great work!

Some awesome times being set by all....great work Richo and Sinisha :woot:

Sinisha got done for sound, didn't get many laps at all.

The porsche guys were putting soft drink cans on their exhausts and diverting the sound away.

Paul, wtf! That is massively sad :mad:

Really.

Yeah, not sure what was going on. Think I need to play around more with tyre pressures. I was getting some neutral 4 wheel drift going into the corners, but wasn't game enough to push harder, because it was squealing at all four. Just wouldn't corner for some reason.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      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?

      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
