As the old saying goes: Don't let fear hold you back.

The caveat being: Don't confuse bravery with stupidity.

Anyway, it would be good to see some more times posted up for Wanneroo. Everyone else must think we are a bunch of keyboard warrior weiners for not posting anything.

DJ I dont see your name on the entry list, I hope you are coming. Although I did hear a wisper that you may have sold your broom broom.

CR

I would refer you to the previous statement about keyboard warrior weiners. That's me. Can't make it Thursday (work), but will be there Saturday for the SES.

Great...more Skylines to give me grief, mind you I did get to pass two of you's :O

It was good to see such support from the skyline crowd and nearly half of the drivers were 1st timers which is great to see more people getting involved. Once the time grouping gets sorted it'll be even better :)

i went and had a look for a hour or so and looked like great fun, ill more than likely get the stagea out onto the track and see how the heavy thing goes lol. Paul your car sounds great and bobbos gtr is f**kin crazyy :O

what sort of tyres and brake calipers/pads were u using Paul? and did u have any issues with brake fade?

i just hope my brakes are up to the task with the 1650kg boat i got, might need to upgrade the pads to something more track friendly :)

Brad, I'm running Hawk race pads, RDA sloted rotors, and braided brake lines, and I was noticing some fade, but was able to last 3 hot laps ok.

yer sounds like i might be ok then, what calipers do u have? gtst or brembos?

i got brembos, dba 5000 rotors, stock brembo pads and braided brake lines so maybe just a pad change as i cant see the stock pads being much good for track, though i havent tried them much yet to see.

haha how is the bonnet scoop doing feeding air to that top mount? hahahaha

This event was awesome. Having an instructor drive your car can only be described as an 'experience'. I would pay the $150 for just those laps.

Good pics Dan, not bad for a first attempt.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
