Hey ppls.. as some ppl might or might know - just got my car..

I'm trying to find an advanced driving/skidpan course that I can attend within the sydney area..

If anyone knows of any/recommends any, please let me know..

If there is a SAU members one coming up @ some stage, that'd be good, doesn't appear to be at the moment though..

Any thoughts are appreciated - except for ppl who say I don't need to do it..

Cheers,

^^ i've done the Peter Finlay one about a year ago before I got the skyline, I would definately recommend him for a 1st level advanced course. I am however looking for something where I can find the limits of my car on a skidpan so I can try things like oversteering, and practising in the wet..

Peter unfortunately doesn't have those facilities but they have a great little track they use..

i'm planning to go on this very very shortly...

also know of Ian Luff, have met him once a couple of years ago, he is a top bloke, also he was one of the judges on Australias worst driver, that show on a while ago. (i wasn't on the show when i met him!!!)

im interested too but probably next month or so, as all this month's Sunday are booked out for me. Got things to do, show and shines to goto, dynos to goto, fishing trips to go ;)

but yea as long as in the skidpans I dont crash or trash mycar id like to go and learn too.

I must agree Aaron Macgill is a very good driver. and a nice bloke too.

I recently attended one of his C3 track days (you can do an OLT for your C3 licence if you wish).

It was at Oran Park (full Grand Prix circuit) and I got him to come for some laps with me. very informative.

Hard to go past a guy that has made his way up to V8 supercars...

I am sure he does run skid pan days etc too.

Do one of luffys courses.... i wouldnt do anything else...

i did course 1,2 and 3 in one day with the nissan sports car club and it was soooo much fun...... time trails... doorriiiffttooooo everything...... :)

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
