Thanks to all the executives for putting on another great SAU track day.

It was well planned to be following a V8 Supercar weekend so we had garages provided for most of the day.

The old white "Sports Saloon" went well all day and we managed to bring it home in one piece.

Eric - do you have any pictures of the white sports saloon?

Great day thanks guys! Glad I decided to drive in the end even after so many "signs" telling me not to! lol

Really well organised and I'm really happy the exec's could spend time enjoying the day also especially after all the effort they put into planning it! For me, that was the best part, seeing everyone having a good time.

Bit of a heart stopper lol....

Haha a $1000 N/a 140hp R31 makes it even worse :P

I think it was a combination of red colour + rear wing + RB30E POWER.

Was fun watching it squirm under brakes into turn one, while my car did the same.

      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.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
