Heard a heap of people mentioning they are coming to this. Make sure you are all signed up.

I'm not sure what you guys are hoping for, but a nice cool day and a 1.31 would suit me :yes:

Also a number of us a staying at the Rose City Saturday night in Benalla.

If you are interested, it's $99 for a twin bed room. Talk to Bawa at the Rose (03) 5762 2611.

They have space for a number of trailers.

I need new front tyres...what have people here used on the front that doesn't cost too much?

I was thinking of getting AD08s on the front but they are pretty pricy

AD08's will last long, thus they are more pricey. They works out cheaper in the long term.

My brother runs them daily and 8,000km later and one track day. They look new still.

Speak to Shane at Traction in Rowville and see what price, tell him your from SAU.

I am hoping to make it and there is a maybe 1/3 chance. Tune didnt go to plan on Saturday and cam gears, cams and another turbo being tried over the next few days. If its all healthy will be bringing it for a run. Otherwise PI at the end of month for me.

Apparently the AD08 are changing to an AD08R so there's a shortage of them and won't be getting them to June/July

Shane's sorting out some Yokohama tyres suited for the track for me

Just what I was told when I asked for a pair of AD08s. They weren't too sure what they were going to be called but that's what they thought its gonna be called.

More expensive/fast tyres that I cant afford. Unless they are bringing out used edition that are half the price :) $100 slicks for the win

How many exhaust manifolds, turbo's, cams, intake plenum's has the car had again?!!? :woot:

LOL, You would be surprised that its not really that many. And the mods I have done to my car in total only add up to maybe 3 sets of semis. Mods are hopefully not consumables. Over 2k for tyres is scary.

So...if anyone wants a set of 295/35/18 AO50 soft compunds that have only done two sessions at Superlap last year on an EVO then hit me up. I was going to try and squeeze them onto my car but the cost of new rims etc means I dont care to do it anymore

I know, Just having a stab :P

This is 295 on a 10.5. So I'd hate to see what they look like on a 9.5. You could get em on 10, not sure what the performance would be like.

From what I remember Traction sayings the IPRA guys run a 265 on a 9" and it bulging.

If you can get hold of some 10's, then I'd try it. 9.5, is going to be taxi spec, I'm not sure the tyre will work that well. Hell wake em on the 9.5's and prove us all wrong.

      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.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      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
