You gotta be shitting me, who the f**k is that cheap?

Was it an R31 enthusiast? Must get old when every accessory is worth more than the shell it's being fixed to I guess.

prob the same people buying fake harnesses....

 

cos you know it's only your life on the line.

Great day fellas - well run and plenty of track time, even with the little delay...  hats off to all the organisers and volunteer flaggies.

Also - WD to all competitors - last year's quickest times;

That 1:04 was set on slicks too by the way.....

To this years times, we even had a 1:04 in street tyres.   Everyone went way quicker in reasonably similar conditions i would have thought - tyres may have played a part in a couple of those :cool:

Lastly, O RLY? :banana:

Cheers, helps contextualize the times. My eyebrows were raised looking at the times if a AD08R was considered 'semi slick' which sometimes it does get categorized as!

Yeah plenty of retards call them along with, Achillies 123s, westlakes etc semi's which they are not.

 

Fast times on both tyres that's for sure.

basiclly I think the cut off is a 180 and up wear rating is street, below 180 is semi. 

 

that said when that was deemed the cut off for a bunch of classes in USA, a few manufactuers re classified their tires from 120-140 to a new 180....

we are looking at you Yokohama and Hankook.....so as per usual it is not cheating till your caught

It felt faster than that I swear! emoji29.png lol definitely need semi slicks next time the factory tyres were hopeless through the bends. Great day though!

It's not about how fast you go but how much fun you have. Great to see you enjoying such a brilliant car at the track rather than sitting in the car park like most owners!

For sure! It's definitely going to take a few track days to get the hang of her. Such a different beast than on the streets. Had an absolute blast though! [emoji3]

Thanks again for everyone for attending.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
