  1. nice to meet you guys at the track Saturday!! all i can say is you guys in NSW have some bloody awsome race tracks, OP south was a blast and i can't wait to get on the whole track thursday. i hope the weather is a bit better but we did have the track to ourselves so great for learning the lines. yeah times were mainly in the low 46's but a few high 45's from Mark. one weird thing happened, not sure but it seems the right rear tyre has a damaged side wall as it got really nervous on that corner late in the day after we rotated tyres. will find out thursday. also the bloody track is hard on rims and exhaust!! lol i have never seen ripple strips like it! cant wait to go back and looking to following some one around!! cheers russ
  2. congratulations guys awsome effort and top results! top job by ben wooster!! well done! first time drive there and 12th!! awsome
  3. thanks guys! thanks Matt the photo's are fantastic!! can i purchase some off you? we didnt throw the slicks on, but proably will thursday while we get some other tyres fitted to rims, the track tore the semi's to bits, mind you they have done over a hundred laps!! they were the tyres we used at Tsukuba!
  4. bigs so true! lets see how much soul a 9 second r35 has thats also a circuit car! (which wont be to hard to achieve)
  5. it will need to do 1:38's in the dry to beat mark at eastern creek on semi's
  6. i'll probably be poping my cherry next year in the r35. but yeah will be a big learing curve, so i dont expect to set the world on fire either! hehe and i dont like some one talking to me while i'm driving!!!
  7. we will be there! shame about the track practice the week before! will be trekkin down friday.
  8. dan, yes we had very good results with the water oil cooler.
  9. in Tsukuba the guys it was two twenty minute sessions and the last one a ten minute session, the guys on there fast laps had headlights on, 10 cars at a time, and yes if it is like it was overthere, you can be effected by traffic and the like, in our middle session there was a major oil down which basically finished that session because they had to put down so much stuff to soak the oil up!! hopefully over the course of an hour of running you should be able to string some fast laps to together. cheers russ
  10. do us proud !! Andrew
  11. nice ride, you track it much?
  12. gary you are absolutely spot on with those comments, it was the first thing we noticed with there set ups.
  13. pwr can make great custom radiators with oil cooler setups
  14. i like drift, ! and our next car will be on the deck, none of the cars i saw in japan (other than ours) was more than about 2/3 inches off the deck.!! awsome like you say just need to do home owrk on geometry an so fourth.
  15. hey phunky, yeah just saw the ignition dvd tonight, turned out good! and yeah you would love it there , certainly gets the blood pumping!! hopefully we will try to get back there at the end of the year with the r34, all going okay pauls twoogle , is one beautiful looking r32 too ! it's a credit to him. ross, yeah, the oil to water oil coolers are great, we are seeing much lower engine oil temps now! before we were seeing up to 130 degree's! cheers russ
  16. our car runs standard ride height!! but need some stiffer bars and springs, squatting so much in the rear and rolling around too much , then i would like to lower it some.
  17. thanks guys , it was great fun, except for getting my ass kicked by berry again. ross, i thought i had a pic of the radiator , but i cant seem to find it, if i do i will post it up. cheers russ
  18. it would make a good drag car too!! ,, it would really suit the build but we like going around corners to much!
  19. the shell is still away getting mods! looking good though, when it comes back and there is some good stuff , i will get some pics and post an update. we did recieve the brakes yesterday, one word "awsome"!! the cylinder head is also away being prepared at the moment. cheers russ
  20. maybe next year , if we can ever get it finished!!
  21. and congrats to noddy on his great time too!!! nice to meet you
  22. hi guys mark and i went to the gatton street sprints up here the week before last, and mark won outright also breaking the lap record a couple of times! set by a lola open wheeler! i uploaded a vid tonight of one of the fast laps also a pic i really liked, shows the spring rates could do with tweaking abit (thanks to redhotshotz) cheers russ
