Anyone up for a road trip? We'd love to see if those big talking Vic GTRs can go quick north of the border as well :D

SAU NSW are running a track day at Wakefield Park in Goulburn on Sat 19 March. Perfect for a road trip, head up on Friday afternoon and a leisurely cruise home on Sunday ;)

Wakefield is a top track, much more flowing then Winton. Its actually way better then Winton and Calder. It would be worht the trip there and back if you can get them tim eoff work to do it.

But be warned, 600hp GTRs are kept honest by well sorted little S13s here, sometimes only being 1-2 seconds slower:)

Exactly - Wakefield sounds like a gay place to bring a GTR.

Eastern Creek sounds like somewhere I could have some fun.

And for the record - I wouldn't suggest for people to drive from NSW to come to either Calder or Winton. I'd only suggest the drive for Sandown or better still Phillip Island! :rant:

It would be about a 6-7 hr drive as its exactly 200kms south from my house in Sydney.

And its not a gay place for a GTR, i actually like the track better then Eastern Creek. Its got a good mix of corners and a tricky braking area, where if you get the exit lien right you can hook out of there, get it wrong you struggle for the next 75m trying to get the car on line for the long left hander and quick right hander onto the back straight...top little track:)

Wakefield is much better than eastern creek you big vic girls :)

Eastern Creek is just a drag strip connected by some 180o turns, a bit like phillip island...

Wreckedhead, yes you can just turn up on the day, but if you do we can't guarantee a place. If you want a guaranteed place, you will need to book first.

    • 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
