Hey everyone,


SAU:NSW has been offered a very special opportuniy thanks to the team at MotorActive to head up to the Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour on Sunday Feb 9. For those of you not familiar with the event, the last 3 years have seen a massive coming of age whereby it is now attracting some of the best GT3 cars and drivers from around the globe.


Of particular interest this year is the Nissan Motor Sport GTR Nismo GT3, for those that don't know that car or for those that are curious you can see it in action here

The Nissan Motor sport GTR will be competing in Oz for the first time and includes local Rick Kelly in the team. Whilst it is expected to run in the top 10 it will have serious competition from SLS Mercs, 458 Ferrari’s, Lambo’s, Audi R8’s. It will also be the first outing at Bathurst for Tony Quin’s McLaren MP412C GT3 (just confirmed).


The list of local and international drivers is also really impressive. As well as many V8 Supercar regulars internationals include:


Mika Salo, ex F1


Markus Winkelhock, ex F1 and FIA GT1 World Champion 2012


Partick Long, 3 x American LeMans Series Champion






These cars lap Bathurst quicker than V8 Supercars and access to the pit area is great so you can get up close to the action.


For more info go to the Bathurst 12 hour website or facebook page.






So now for the special deal for SAU!

MotorActive are offering VIP parking directly opposite the main straight together with 2 adult entry tickets for a total of $35.00!!! It’s also great that they are donating the whole $35 to Camp Quality so what a great way to donate to a good cause.




Once you have booked your spot post up here stating that you are going and if possible a small pic of your car that you will be attending in (does not have to be a skyline!)


Cruise details are still being worked out but we will be departing from Penrith Panthers at approx 7:45am on Sunday Feb 9th.

Check back regularly for updates on post no 2 for cruise details and other special announcments


See you there!

Dave


Shameless plug for the MotorActive team below :D

Thanks Dave. Looking forward to this, it should be a spectacular event and the price is ridiculously cheap quite frankly.

Thanks to the guys from MotorActive and SAU for organising! :)

Also, I think I read somewhere on the official page that it is a "keep the change" event, so the $35 entry price, while dirt cheap, means that people are encouraged to pay extra if they are able to, and all of this will go to charity as Dave said.

Was watching last year's 12hr race on Foxtel, just paid. Will bring the GT-R.

Here's a crappy picture of my car

Possible to leave earlier for the cruise to Bathurst? Only because by the time we get there, we'll miss almost half the race :(.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O

      Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though.

      215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.

      That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
