For anyone coming out to watch on the day, the Evo club and BMW club are having a lunchtime happy laps. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/443557-happy-laps-at-the-sprint-day-07-june-2014/

For reference, my first time with only 95awkw and only no handling mods fetched me 67 secs, all be it in a lighter car.

I think I should be around that mark, I'd like to get close to 60 but I'm not sure how feasible that is.

Probably not on street tires unless you are a gun driver, the R35's that i have seen do like 56-57 seconds, but never say never :)

Will be running RSR's on the day but an R compound would obviously be better. I think I lack the power to get really good times at QR..

Yer, im hoping for 62-63 on toyo R888's, but have you been to lakeside? Its so much better of a track, plus power doesn't make as much of a difference there, in saying that the sprint track and clubmans track at QR aren't to bad for low power cars either

Done lots of happy laps at LP and one sprint day that turned into a swim meet. I was running normal 595's that day so I think me best time was about a 79 or something.

thats not bad for wet lap on street tires, that would be a hairy out there near the cliffs and walls hahaha,

also i think there will be some really quick cars out there at qr next weekend, if you haven't heard of it gools evo should be out there, it runs like 52 seconds lol

Was very hairy, 595 are known for being total shit in the wet, some of our guys did some very good times though.

Hey Cadmoon, I know of 2 previous members in near stock 32 gtst's with suspension mods run around 63 to 65 seconds consistently. You should be able to do the same.

Now I have to do it or die trying.

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
