Took 0.2s off PB at Winton on Sunday (1.35.0). Should be able to get into the 1.34's next time on the condition it a) it dry and B) I'm not full of Benalia Wang Busters from the night before.

Have both Calder and PI in the next few weeks so will hopefully improve times for both tracks.

hey Roy you have any times for Mallala yet?

I will be there shortly... :)

Not yet...will be looking at doing a day in November when everyone is a little more organised...including me... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...ic=46214&st=100

Updated times...

And Abo Bob, so you only saw a 2sec improvement with the RE55s??? Still a huge improvement, but do you think that semis are worth 2seconds, or were there problems on the day which meant you couldnt get the most out of the tyres?

I improved by 3 seconds actually. 1:15 to 1:12. I also have about 30 more rwkw but my new transmission is a bit different than the old one which required some learning.

I would say that I'll get a 1:11 next time down with current setup but I have some bilsteins waiting to go in, still got stock suspension. I'd love to do a 1:10 in an auto.

Howdy fellas,

Did a supersprint on sunday at Wakefield and got my best time down to a 1:10.63.

Results are here:

All guys above me were running slicks or R-spec tyres. I'm on stock 05 STi Bridgestone RE070s. I'm getting very tempted to try a set of stickies.

...for all the guys with the r33 gtr's how do they compare to cars such as type-r's, s2000's, sti's, and evos?

Unless they are serioulsy modded, almost std GTRs with semi slicks leave them for dead. The EVOs seem to get close at some tracks, but not close enough...hell even my little GTST keeps the late model hatch/hairdresser brigade honest :D

And storms to the top of te Queensland Raceway time card :D

    • 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.
