Any members on here go to roll racing? I went to the last one as a spectator and went to this one last night as a support vehicle, but ended up entering and having a few runs...

And I have to say, had a ball, great fun and not too hard on the cars, I was rolling up to 50km/h in second gear then planting it at the tree, shifting at 7-7500rpm, car did very well, I was hitting 200-220km/h by the finish line.

Ive entered once before over here in Perth, The night was great and I enjoyed beating on the new setup but with traction issues and an old H pattern I was far from competitive, Its ashame it would seem the track over here at barbagallo is abit shorter 50-100m roughly then the eastern states.. doesnt give me enough time to catch back up after spinning 1st and 2nd. Good fun taking the misso and some mates for a blast though.. once my roster lines up again ill be keen again for sure...

Yeah I might come out this Friday, good fun watching the cars, don't think I'll enter though, I have to sort my box out, might see if I can get a support vehicle pass and bring the old girl out

Any idea what's causing the boost cut?

At first I thought I blew the plenum piping off, cause it's happened before and felt the same.

 

Wasnt it, then got under the car to make sure I hadn't melted away my wastegate lines cause it dosed like 3 times consecutively. No luck there. Decided to test drive it on street and ran like a champ. One of those things, maybe just ecu went into protection cause of boost creep on such a cool night. Will just have to monitor and see what happens.

 

whats going on with your box? Mines on it's way haha

Mines just got a noisy input shaft bearing, I bought a box on the weekend, going to take it to Award and have it rebuilt and put that in, then once I got mine out I'm going to have it checked to see if it actually has been upgraded to 33 spec, then I'll price up going a ppg gear set and billet flex plate. I'll build my box the way I want then drop it in with a Nismo twin plate clutch next year some time

I'm not making huge power but just want it reliable. Making 360awkw but I'm changing exhaust (going custom 4' stainless) going to up the boost and might go flex tune. Hoping to be up around 450awkw if I go flex or 400 ish on pump fuel

      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.
