Sounds good. Plenty of laps to be had + plenty of petrol to be consumed.

You can have a second driver use the car on the sessions your allocated for $0 cost, so my Dad's going to have a drive.

Bring on the cold (but dry) weather for the turbos!

This is the email I got:

Hi Everyone!

Thank you very much for booking in for this weekend’s Advan Trackday at Winton Raceway – it’s looking to be an awesome day.

The aim for the day is to be relaxed and full of fun laps for all. Here is the itinerary for the day to ensure you don’t miss out on anything!

08.00: Gate opens
08.15: Sign in desk opens – come see us in the scrutineering/track marshal office to sign in
08.50: Driver’s Briefing
09.00: Track open
17.00: Track closes

Groupings – Depending on the final number of entrants, we will either be running 3 or 4 groups of 15 minute sessions.

Preparation – All “normal” preparations should be considered, i.e. Long sleeve clothing, helmets, a working car with no leaks etc. Fire extinguishers are not compulsory.

Driver Training – As a little surprise for you all, we will have John Boston available all day for personal driver training at no extra cost! He can ride passenger with you or drive your car if you like.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me via email or phone!

See you on Saturday!

Done and dusted . Had a blast.

Ad08R's are an amazing tyre. Gave so much confidence.

1.33.38 on a street tyre.

First time at Winton without ABS, though new splitter and wing mounting made up for that.

Juliette, how'd the R's feel on the BRZ?

Top day, kudos to advan/circuitclub for organising.

Weather wasn't ideal but plenty to time to try this and that.

Just wish my cv boot held up so I could burn up some laps with their whizzy new tyres they were loaning out. Next time!

Thanks for pics martin. Lol: you travel so much, have you checked the camera timestamps :-)

Due to gasket issue robbing me of a few sessions, didn't get a chance to make use of Andrew from traction tyres being on site but did get a brilliant session with John Boston from www.trackschool.com.au here's hoping Advan Australia / circuit club can become a regular calendar fixture

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
