Well after what seems like an eternity to me I'm finally back and marked my return today at Phillip Island with a new PB of 1.47.24. Not too shabby given it is the 1st full track day I have got through in my car since Oct 05 and that the tyres I was on (toyo's) were definitely a good 1.5-2s slower than the bridgestones looking at how much Scotsman could get back on me through the sweepers and under brakes.

Racepace FTW! :whistling:

Also, I ran 1.45.5 around Eastern Creek last year...

But he's right, I did see a 1:45.8 from memory on Racetime at PI, before they deleted all previous event results....

I've seen a dyno sheet with 380+ kw. What happened to the extra 30 kw?

I remember as we came out of turn 4 and onto the back straight and you were in front of me, I wasn't able to reel you in but you weren't able to pull away either. So I'd say we're line ball on power but you have me everywhere else :D

I can see you in a 32.......and i can see myself in a 34....wanna swap? ;)

Its always satisfying when you can actually keep up with a car in a straight line...always so frustrating to be losing out in a straight line and having to fight to catch them up through the corners and under brakes....lol i can only do it for a few corners before overdirivng and losing even more time :D

Power: 350rwkw Sandown

F#$CK me, no wonder you blew me into the weeds on the straights..... :thumbsup:

I reckon by the 3rd flying lap, my car is down to about 280-285 rwkw given how hot it gets and how much timing is coming out and how much fuel is going in. I'm shooting 3 foot flames on decel when water temps are over 100deg C.

It's all factory issue for the ducting. The oil temps are not too bad as the oil cooler is in the front bumper and angled for maximum surface area. I've still got my air-con condensor so it blocks most of the radiator at the front.

With power comes heat, so unless I ditch the air-con there's not much I can do apart from doing some work at the bottom of the car to direct some air flow up into the hot part of the radiator.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
