FCK YEAH!

shame It's priced a bit rich for my blood. though I would guess the overheads of running an event like this at bathurst would be huge!

God I wish I could afford that :)

Same!!! It would be the best 2 days ever :thumbsup:

You would have to go the sprintBathurst option, which starts from $4,900. So it is alot of cash!

it's hard to justify. $5K could get me a lot of track days.

but then again, it is bathurst.

and I'd need a new set of tyres $2K, make sure the car is tip top. $1K. some spares $1K. travelling cost. $500. so we are talking near enough to a $10K weekend and that's providing I dont bin it coming out of the chase!

Pitty we cant co-drive and share costs :)

Theres the next best thing - speed weekend for the supersprint and then the hill climb around same time of year.

I'll be 100% in that :thumbsup:

yes, but that supersprint and hill climb you speak of only use a small part of the circuit and you are going the wrong way. still good fun, but not quite in the same league.

a friend of mine is running in a race meet at bathurst and told me their entry cost is $400. so with the $4600 left over maybe I can build a crappy car, and get my NC licence and enter that!

Oh I know the BB,

But I mean you are still racing on the track which hardlky anyone else does, and for a shitload less!!

Id rather do the sprint and hill climb 40 odd times than spend the rest on the other race!

Oh, the hillclimb on the speed weekend is actually the correct way. Its mt straight and up that way

They have other hill climbs through the SS's

How come on the application it doesn't give me a choice of which cars they are providing me to drive..... :thumbsup:

For $4k i'd rather hire Oran Park myself and piss all over the main straight all day.

One of the guys on the Zed forum posted this, puts a different slant on it.

"For that price it would be cheaper to fly to Germany and go around the Nürburgring. It costs 345 Euro to do 25 laps there and you could possibly hire a German sports car to do it in."

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

      Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.

      Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
