I have got a medical and fitness evaluation for a job tomorrow arvo hence I can make work Wed. night:rolleyes: (thats what I'm telling work anyway)

So depending on how knackered I am and whether I can be bothered (I have more physical testing on Thursday so I might need to catch up on sleep) on the night I might head on down to the Plex.

Is anyone else planning on goin?

If so theres a 50/50 chance I'll be down there fangin the R, come up for a chat, 'cause unfortunately haven't been in the loop since the last wed. night drags I organised ages ago.

Cheers,

Ryan.

I wouldn't be asking for tips off me :(

I'm a follower of the "Buy a GTR and rev it till 7 or so, load up the drivetrain then jump off the clutch and change gears as fast as you can until you hit the line"

Not very scientific, difficult or perhaps even intelligent but it works for me, but then again I still haven't cracked a 12:D

I'm gonna head down. Just had the car tuned up so with any luck i'll pull a high 13.

Gtst vspec, you should head down to race. Your doin what I did, the whole time your watching your wishing you were raceing.

Why do you need to watch first??

The only reason I did is cause I had no helmet.

I'll save ya some time, holdens pull 13's-14's, most skylines pull 14's, some do 13's, gtr's do 12's, wrx's pull 14's, mazdas do 11's-14's.

And fords, ha ha, fords.

Thanks for the tip Hicks,

I could probably get a helmet by tommorow but I'm working till about 7:30, so I didn't want to give it a half hearted effort. The following Wednesday I will be prepared.

Hope to see you down there though.

See'ya:burnout:

I went down and saw a few runs from Hicks, Macka and adam32 ( I think :)

By the looks of it Hicks got into high 13's one run at 13.8 .. I think and the rest were low/mid 14's.

Macka had some sweet runs with a nice 13.06 and 13.07 and some 15.something run..

**** remember anymore :)

There was a sick speedworks 200sx but dropped a bit of white smoke on it's last run (blown turbo?).

Also saw a GTiR up against a S13 which was beating it up until half track when it basically slowed to a crawl to never come out again :)

Was a pretty good night with a all-holden burnout pad at the end.

No soarers this week, suprise suprise.

That's my recap :D

Well It seems Macka is breathing down the necks of the GTR boys and girls now with flat 13's. Thats where I'd like to be next time round. Might be a bit harder for me without that Mack-tastic power :)

A little birdy told me the track was 'treated' reasonably tonight, something I think they should do more of since more street cars are turning up to race.

Hicks, did you get that 13.8 you were chasing?

Adam32 how did you go with the boost over 8psi?

Well done everyone, seem's like (almost) everyone came back happy.

Hicks, what was your 60' like? Did you end up running on standard rear rims?

Macka, what was your terminal speed like? Must have been pretty good with a 12.98 1/4 and only a 2.25 60'.

adam 32, sorry to hear... give us details once you recover.

as far as i can tell...

on my first run with soft suspension, as i changed into 2nd the centre muffler (which is very low to the ground) bounced up and smashed into the diff. there is now a considerable oil leak and im assuming power wasnt being transferred through the diff and thus the shitty time of 14.4

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
