I reckon I can get into the 1:55s. Just did a 1:56.395 with a few small errors. The following lap I was .23 faster at the first check point (halfway up the first straight) before I cocked up my braking point and drilled the wall

nice lap mad,

and have to agree. I just watched my replay and massive lock up running wide all the way into turn 2, and a stuff up here and there up around the top.

Also there's probably heaps of time in playing with the suspension

But this is fun, was getting starting to get bored with it but now have something to go for :)

new best time. 1:55.834. i definitely have a mid 1:55 there for the taking, but we are talking no mistakes to do it. on my 1:55 lap i was 0.906 up on my 1:56.395 lap at the final split (halfway down conrod straight). when i saw that come up i just did my best to keep it on the track and was a little bit over cautious into the last corner, and had a small moment up near reid park). the lap before that one i was 0.7 up at the last split and then cut the corner coming out of the chase a whisker too much and got the lap invalidated, so i didn't want to lose my super lap.

oh and i agree about having something to chase. it certainly makes licence test more entertaining as i usually have a crack to get the best time, or at least not the slowest, lol. although on the seasonal event for the ft-1 i did tonight i only did 2 laps to get the gold and couldn't be bothered trying to get a better time.

jeez, fast times in the R35s! i knew it would be quicker than the R34 I chose, but 6.4sec is alot! I just can't bring myself to buy a 35...

Tried an LFA but they just don't make enough power to be competitive. The JZA80 Supra does have the power, but Gran Turismo has never blessed the Supra with any traction at all. In the end they both run about 2:05.

The Honda NSX LM Road Car would probably give it a nudge, but that's not really a stock Japanese production car...

I might try a Z32 for a laugh.

Had a go with the r34 again. Managed to crack into the sub 2 minute bracket. 1:59.289. It was a super tidy lap. Still a tenth here or there to be had, but not much. Found a few lines that seem to work a bit better in a few spots so going to give the 35 another go

New record

Time: 1:55.207

Car: r35 gtr black

There is a 1:54 in that car. I did a 1:55.447 and then did a lap where I was 0.955 up at the last check point but went too cautious into the chase and the last corner and only got a 1:55.295. When I set the .207 lap I also managed to get the 3 magnificent laps trophy as the 2 laps before it were both low 55s. Had a bit of a zone going

1:59.289 in the 34 well done mad.

I got last night

Time: 2:00.580

Car: R33 GTR vspec

Still a pretty messy lap some lines I can do better

Still think I can get high 1:59's. I've kinda mangled the suspension and gear ratio settings so will have to sort that out again.

This is the most fun I've had with gt6 so far. Tried on-line last night and that was unbearable.

Had a bit of a play with my 34's setup and got a 2:00.372

Then gave in an bought an R35 Black. What an animal! 1st lap full power and lightweight mods but stock suspension and driveline, no wing, just the flat floor: 1:58.812. Soooo easy to drive after the R34! Then added clutch, tailshaft and LSD, still on stock suspension & no wing. Went back out and reeled these 3 laps in succession

1:57.367

1:56.714

1:56.015

before almost rolling it at the end of the next lap - don't clip the final kerb at Murray's corner!

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
