I can't say I've seen any unregistered cars there, but yeh, cages/stripped sure. Mine and Chris's but two examples...... hope they give you a fair go, if for no other reason that I don't wish to be slapped around by a daily driven Supra on raod rubber! lol

A lowly Supra would not get near the GTSt! Just strip more weight out of it since you cant throw more power at it. :(

haha, trust you Roy :D

Harry's close to me in his Supra, there's only .2 seconds in it :)

I can tell you there's nothing left in mine as it stands now unfortunately. Lakeside is a very high average speed track and my little jigger just lacks in the power stakes. It's pretty awesome on the picks now though and still very quick in early and mid corner (even on these very old 02g's that haven't worn an ounce in 300 track klms). Hopefully I can get everything sorted out for the 21st and see if I can better my best :)

Well done Noel! :(

Roy... not bloody much!

The allowed to do list is short, basically;

Turbo back exhaust.

Fuel system now free.

ECU/boost control free.

Not allowed list is long.

No 'cooler upgrade.

No camor gear change.

No air intake change.

No turbo change.

Nothing internal.

Basically, NA guys can go to town, turbos are limited. And probably rightly so for a more level playing field.

doesn't really worry me if they don't let the 1200 run - i'll just have to get a clown suit and do one of their race meetings instead!

And I wouldn't mind another go in the Supra anyway - I think I can go a bit quicker yet. go a bit harder under the bridge and can work on being very smooth onto the front straight - easy to loose time there on cheapo Federals! maybe there's a tenth or two in hungry and the first half of the carousel as well. and I've got a brand new LHR tyre after Oran Park too - it's just gotta be faster! lol

Time atack at QR this morning and a new sprint pb for the old man. The wheelchair carried me to a string of 58 second lap times with a best of 58.4.

Happy old man. :D:mad:

Geez...Noel no stuffing around with posting that up!! Ha ha congratulations and keep those times coming down :D good to see :D

kenoath!

huge contrats Noel!

I'm sure there is more left in it with teh straight line power it has!

well done mate.

:) just got off the phone with the QR officials. my Datsun is not going to be allowed at this Lakeside event, it's strictly road cars only, so I'll be back in the Supra for another go!

I'll have to wait till after the resurfacing and do a TopGear race meeting to get the Datsun onto Lakeside aparently. their reasoning is fair enough.

Well done Noel! :)

So NA can have a few ccs snuck in? Even so, i am betting an NA RB20 woudl be no bad thing. But the torque of the turbo engine is going to help on road rallies

So the fact that the R32 was released as as R32 GTS25 with an RB25DE doesnt allow you to run that engine. I am sure there are cars out there that have been built up from another spec of vehicle, GTR an dN1 comes to mind. So if you are allowed to go an NA RB25, throw a bucket load of compression, multi throddle bofdies and the thing would sound wild, great throttle response and make more power then you are making at the moment.

Oh, but hand on, do NA engines have the same cam etc restrictions as forced induction?

New Pb for me at Sandown today - 1.21.5 and on a damp track - very happy with the "Mark and Duncan ATTESSA controller" - first time I've really used it in the wet on the track and it works a treat on the "6" setting.

Car Make and Model: 1994 Nissan R32 GTR (N1)

Lap time: 57.55 (QR - Sprint)

Modifications

Power: 298kw

Tyres: 18" : RE55s SR2

Suspension: Apexi N1 professional

Brakes: Alcon 4 pot, 350mm, Ferrodo DS3000 Pads

done a little while back, forgot to add to this thread.

    • 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
