Just by way of comparison (& maybe to give some people an aiming point) have a look at the following times from the speedeventseries held at Wanneroo in December last year. There are times available for both the short & the long circuits. :D

There is a four wheel drive class as well a heap of others.

If anyone has been bitten by the motor racing bug the next event is at Wanneroo on the short course in February.... The calender is on www.speedeventseries.com

For one, I wouldn't mind the company. There were only three GT-R's there last time which itself was an improvement...

Just remember, you don't get faster sitting at home on the play station. :)

Dont forget those times above will have been done on slicks ;)

You can cut approx 4 seconds from your time running a set of R-Comps.....

Um, it was Scott's first go & he was running on road tyres. Not sure about four seconds, but R compounds certainly do help your lap speed. Point is to go out and have fun. The SES mob are as friendly, interested & helpful bunch of people as you will come across. So get involved!

Was'nt really talking about his time specifically, but most of the other catorgories represent there would have been ;)

Most of the cars running in the Speedeventseries use R compounds. There is just about every type of car entered - the only notable absentees tend to be FPV & HSV's. Point is that it is a great way to get you & your road car involved in competition.

Having said that Gary Wests' F4000 Lola wasn't on R compounds - he used slicks to break both course records. How does 46.44 seconds for the short course & 52.26 for the long course sound?

I dont think Ill be able to keep up with that, But we think we know why my car was letting out some smoke so hopfully before the next event ill have it tuned and running Higher boost like to see how much quicker ill be then ;D

Official results are up :(

I could'nt agree with DJR81 more as this is my favourite form of motorsport and would love to get involved, but for now I will not be returning until I have a set of R-Comps.

Almost did'nt pass scrutineering with my tyres on the night, did'nt realize they were so bad, probably most of the reason my car was somewhat of a handfull! :cheers:

So did no one get any pictures...? :)

I was one of the non-Skyline drivers from the night and I'd like to say thanks for all you guys coming down. 1/3 of all the cars were skylines, and without that support, the night probably wouldn't have gone ahead. I had an absolutely fantastic night even though I only come 24th in a field of 25 (Only had an NA 1.6L). It was great to hear the sounds of the skylines roaring down pit straight.

Oh and the 1:02 from the Evo IX was done by the instructor, not by the driver Steve :P

It was quite a show one of you guys put on with the sparks from brakes :)

Leaning over the barrier watching your car go past was good too.

Sounded very throaty that's for sure.And looked pretty quick to me too.

Made my daughter want to have a go in her new Impreza RX.

Maybe I can talk her into it.

Having fun and improving your skills at the same time is the main aim.

ill sort out the footage from the roof cam and post it asap

cheers

Thought I saw a car with a roof cam there... :P

Heres some footage of Franzs 300zx going round the short curcuit.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
