heslo's + 1

well i had fun. I think i need moar powah.... held a few nice slides through turn one though. I managed a best time of 1:30.7, which is is 2 seconds faster than my personal best and gave a few of you turbo's a run for you're money! Looking forward to the photographers pics of me and josh at the southern hairpin. Also a note to the organizers; mustaches should be made mandatory for all future track related events.

my first timed lap was a 1:36, which was after only 3 laps of the track. Best time was a 1:32.2, with out the cones. The instructor (dave) estimated his time in my car to be a high 1:30, so i was pretty happy with my efforts. Luke, you just weren't pushing hard enough, when you think about it, both me and jugz ran off the track at some stage, and thus found the limits, and then went on to improve our times. You cruised around quite happily and without an untidy moment all day. Id say there's definatley more pace in the car than what your getting at the moment, you just have to pluck up the courage to take that extra 50m under brakes or push that extra 10 km/h through the corners but it means you might end up in the dirt.

actually, that was the lines the instructor was telling me to take, late apex's through the first two corners, and then a slight slide through the third to keep the revs up to get a little more out of it on to the straight. I was experimenting with different stuff all day, because it sounded a bit weird to me as well, but this was definitely the fastest way through there in my car. I noticed benji in the starlet was also on the same line, so obviously its the better way through there for smaller, less powerfull cars. I was using bridgestone potenza adrenalin RE001 in 205/50/R15 on a 5.5" rim. They held up really well, i was out for nearly 15 laps before they started to get hot and slid around a bit. Heslo has the same sort of tyre on the front of his GTR, and i think (but dont quote me) he has The Toyo R888 semi slicks on the back. Jugz in the maroon r33 gtst had some sparkly new Kuhmo KU36's (i m pretty sure thats what they're called) and Benji in the starlet also has the adrenalins, which he pretty well destroyed by the end of the day. I think you'll find most of the people out there were on performance street tyres, with the exception of a handfull of the more track preped cars.

there were a few skid marks around the place after this lol

ill have you know Andrew that i got my little hairdressers car around in a best time of 1:32.2, so not to far off you! Pretty happy with it considering that was my first time on a track and the car is essentially stock. Ive got some video here so ill get Luke to do his thing and put it up asap.

has to go now guys, $8.5k

back up you go! Also, ill be willing to go a bit cheaper with out the wheels so make an offer guys, worst thing i can say is no.

friday arvo bump

thanks mate, yeah i was the guy that drove josh up to your place to buy it. Price drop to $10,500 neg.

the bottom end bearings and the front/rear main seals were replaced just a few weeks ago, ive got all the receipts for the work. Ive priced it at 11 "neg" as i was expecting people to come in with lower offers. Give me a call mate, if you want to come have a look at it, we could probably work out a price around what your talking about. My number is 0431297568. Cheers.

back to the front! im picking up my new car this weekend guys, so would really like to have this gone by then

hey matey, have a look here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/S1...-s-t289480.html The listed price is open to negotiation, if you're interested we could work out a lower price with out the wheels.

thanks for the kind words guys, yeah it goes pretty well for what it is. Dropping the price now to 11k. Also forgot to mention that it has a full alarm/imobiliser/central locking.

thanks mate, i think the price is reasonable considering the new turbo, fresh bearings, and all of the susp. work. also forgot to mention, fairly new tires and rego till january. Also, the price is negotiable guys, i've put a deposit on a new car so i need to sell fairly soon so make me an offer.

Im not 100% sure mate. As far as i know, all of the K's were turbo, it was optional on the Q's. I think it just meant it was the highest spec you could get

i think i may have hurt jugz's feelings.... oh, and to be on topic: you shoulda got the optional stripes! thats and extra 49.375 KWATW!!!!!!!

well hello there children, nice to see you all having fun without me! Firstly, nice car mate, go beat some skylines in it lol secondly a question to everybody: Q: What has four doors, a six cyl motor, and a lazy slush box? A: Commodore taxi, or, Falcon taxi, or even the slightly less common, Magna Taxi (380's included) are we seeing a theme here? Andrews just upset because he got the shopping trolley (or socccer mum, depending on your take) version of a sports car, as opposed to the sports version of a shopping trolley lol and jugz, you still have that lancer, therefore, comments still not valid.
