Big Congrats to Steve and the BC Automotive team, about time we got the GTR back on the podium. Very impressed with the result, I have finally decided to read your thread and I'm a few pages in and I'm liking what I see :yes:. I wish I could have made it to WTAC this year to have a look, and tow my GTR down for the Flying 500 but been so soon after Jambo didn't have time to get my shit sorted. What did your car end up weighing in at? mine is 1280KG no driver running very similar set-up to your car except I got half the interior still in it but I got 1200+hp ups its arse :) . Anyways congrats again keep up the good work looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.

cheers benny, would have been great to see your car compete at the flying 500. congrats on the 8.39 super quick time also. Cars weighing 1278 without driver or fuel, we will be back next year running a 2 car gtr team.....in 2 different classes, can wait.

Nice... 2 cars = twice the headaches :woot: , I am also have another R32 GTR chassis on the way to turn into a hopefully a very low 7sec GTR 3/4 chassis drag car retiring the current one. I have also discussed with my team in using the current 8 sec R32 chassis to compete in either next years or 2015 WTAC. I am hoping of débuting my R32 with my mates R35 GTR (ex Mercury Motorsport Time Attack R35) at the same time flying the same banner. It won't take much to convert the drag car to time attack. The transmission and driveline are compatible, most of the suspension is done just need new coil overs, Got a brand new RB26 head and RB30 Block and Crank for its new 800HP Quick Response Setup. Just need some big brakes and a lil bit of Aero setup and Rollcage needs a few extra bars. Can't wait to start this project and set some new challenges and goals.

Sounds like a fun and busy year ahead for you, it's always great to set goals and even better when you achieve them. The more gtr's running the better, looks like the skylines will finally out number the evo's at world time attack as I see a trend happening.

Cars heading to phillip island next month to see if Deano can brake our 1.33.5. Hopefully with better conditions this time and a new set of tyres perhaps, it might just get into the 1.31's I'm hoping. Still needs a new set of suspension but will do for now.

What day are you going down for? PIARC? What about SAU nationals in SA? your time to take the wheel, even on low boost you'll smash everyone there haha

9th and 10th at the island and deans driving and maybe I'll take the wheel, and I'll be honest I'm still a crap driver and won't smash anyone til I learn the car. It's been over 2 years since I've driven the car properly and never at this power level so happy to take my time. Need to put the spare seat in and get some driver training I reckon.

So wtac is done for this year but still getting the car out there to develop it further as we're not in a rush anymore which is nice. Boys took the car to Philip island for the national supersprint championship. First day had clutch issues with the clutch clip popping out, so they drove back to the workshop to sort it and head back again the same night. Day 2 great results and a personal best for the team... 1st in class with a 1.33.3, I believe 4th outright just behind the radicals, on advan A050 used tyres, and officially the fastest gtr at phillip island on record that we know of. Top speed on the straight was 302.2km/h. The tyres are the limiting factor here as they were falling apart after a lap. Set of slicks and we reckon it might break the 1.30 lap time. I guess the only way to find out is try it. Still haven't updated the suspension, would be great if we can get some sponsors, Hint hint if your a suspension workshop by the name of bilstein, mca, koni, supashock feel free to email me as I'm happy to test your gear on my car :)

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
