No worries

i think il keep the wastegate venting atmos.. it just sounds tooo good

Yes, you really should get someone to drive it past you at full noise, its an angry, angry sound :)

Yes, it was by far the best RENEW's day we had, they had their sh!t together, we were on the track early and I did about 160 laps, a great day, well done RENEWS and SAU. TOP SHOW!

Im very happy with the 1.09 it was my goal for the day and I got there, I did crack a rotor I will post up some pics for a laugh! If any of the passangers were wondering what that shutter was, it was the rotor's I check twice but both times the crack was under the caliper. I drove home without using the brakes once, goto love that M7! Drove into UAS at 8.30am on Monday morning and drove out at 10am with DBA 4000 rotors, Im not sure if they will improve my times, but I can no longer say I have STD brakes and suspension, as I now have an upgrade, even if the upgrade was 7% the cost of the original Nissan part.

FYI $220 for DBA's $3300 GTR STD rotor.

Well done to all first timers, everyone drove hard but not stupid, and it shows with no broken cars or accidents, well done everyone top work, and I trust we will see you at the next day.

Pics of the old rotor???

Well done on cracking the 10's, and thanks again for the laps :P

I've got a lot of video to edit and burn to DVD. I'll organise to send out discs to those who want them once it's ready. I'll post in here once it's ready to go.. It'll be relatively un-edited (no music and such) so you can play with it as you please.

Hey guys,

Thanks to all of you who came along on Sunday.

We are glad you all had such a top time. Was great to see so many first timers out there, and also a few girls as well. Good stuff.

RENEW is close to finalising the details for the Eastern Creek day. Keep an eye on threads here, and also, those that attended the OP and WP days, we will be sending you emails too..

Cheers,

Craig

RENEW Secretary.

James i hope you liked your ride, sorry it wasn't as quick as i took Liz around but she brings the best out in me, with the quote "man hit the ripples, your driving like a pussy!" with that i thought thats it if i go off who cares just as long as i scare Liz, but i didn't dammit.

hahahaha you were fully cut when i said that!

but at least you got fired up!

Im keen for a copy :nyaanyaa:

Not sure if this was mentioned previously but I noticed someone had an onboard camera.

Any one know who has this footage?

Yeah would've liked to see what times i did with you in the car, i reckon you were worth another sec or two for me!. Best flame ever Liz! :nyaanyaa:

    • Duncan:- it affect both sides.  Driver side is worse.
    • That seems like a very special issue!  Does it affect both sides? Either way, I would disconnect the driver's side switch and see if it still happens, noting that might require removal of the whole door card which is a bit of a pain (it does on V37 and HY51)  
    • MBS206:- The windows start to slowly open themselves. GTSBoy:- Battery is new since Dec. 
    • I currently have a 2008 370GT Coupe, with the big brakes (Akebeno if I'm correct), and Its coming time to get new pads. Previously, I had a 2003 350GT Coupe with the stock sized brakes, not Brembos. I had custom wheels on it that were pretty open to the brakes, and when I first put the wheels on it, the rims where completely coated with brake dust. A few years after adding the new rims, I needed to change to pads on that car. I didn't do any research, but I told the mechanic of the problem with the brake dust. I also told him I didn't track the car or even drive around the streets harshley. But the dust was an issue. The mechanics changed the pads to a different compound, and the dust was GONE! The other change I noted was that when coming to a complete stop, instead of having to press harder on the pedal as I approached 0kph, I had to actually lift off a little to not come to a hard jerky stop.( My unfounded explanation is they became stickier as they heated by stopping ) Since I got my 370gt with big brakes, I noticed that that as I came closer to stopping, I had to press harder and harder to reach a full stop. I am not talking about hard, just harder. I brought the car in from another state, so when I had a blue slip done, I asked the mechanic what he thought of the brakes, and he thought they were brilliant. The only negative of these pads on the 350GT, was that they squealed when cold. So driving out of a shopping center carpark, it was a little embarrassing, as the brakes squealed, and I am sure people thought that I needed new brakes, when they were actually fresh. I have no idea of what type of compound they were on the 350gt, but whatever it was, I want to get the exact same on my 370GT. They weren't ridiculously expensive, and were replaced at the local JAX (which is no longer open), so I am certain they would be a pretty common big brand, off the shelf type/brand. My current mechanic suggested I need top get the rear pads changed soonish, but he suggested standard Brembo pads. Which I expect to behave the same as the current ones and not like the ones on the 350GT.  I don't think dust will be an issue on the 370GT. With the behaviour I describe above on the 360GT, does anyone have a suggestion of pad material that will act like the change I had done on the 350GT?
