Yeah there's not much more available on the normal cyclic data from the TCM than what I gave Lee, but I've got a list of other (more useful) channels I should be able to pick up, just need time to test it! I'll see if I can find time to do the work in the next week.

Cheers.

A couple of updates. Door's were finished with some bracing to hold the windows and mirrors in place.

Also the intake side of the brake coolers have been done. Really this was a test set-up and we'll make a nicer more permanent solution now that we know that the concept is sound. Definitely we have improved the temps of the rotors - however the first race at Sandown last week showed that 10 laps was now overheating calipers / boiling fluids. So the next step will be in looking into what we can do to assist with that.

And here are a couple of pics of the car on both the wet set-up (TE37SL's)

And on the dry rims (TE37 RT's)

More to come soon including more work at weight saving and working on improving front end grip.

Yep - got a chance to race in the Radical Australia Cup next year with Adam Newton and so thought a new challenge sounded exciting. Hopefully someone will pick this up and runs with it as I think it will be damn good thing as a Sports Car.

Yeah we had our first test day yesterday and were miles off the pace. It's going to be a real challenge for both of us to get there.

Neither of us could go flat through turn 1 even though we know the car is capable. Brain just doesn't compute that it can do it and so makes the leg lift off the loud pedal still.

And we also both had some big off's yesterday as well so we have a lot to learn. But I'm excited to do something completely new.

The blue car below is the car we'll be running in next year.

    • 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
