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

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
