Team Release

Team “Shake n Bake” can’t wait for Targa 2008!

Thursday 27 March 2008

The social side of Targa almost outweighs the competitive side and as a bit of fun, a group of mates comprising of recent and past Targa competitors have banded together to enter the Targa Teams Section as Team “Shake n Bake”.

In the true spirit of racing these guys are hunting the 1st place 2008 Targa Team Trophy… “because if ya ain’t first, ya last!”

Team members are:

895 Manion/Manion 33GTR V-spec N1 1995

904 Millar/Dean Evo IX GSR 2006

962 Kennard/Grimwood Sti Spec C 2007

979 Wooster/Kulhanek 34GTR V-spec II N1 2001

The laughs and jokes will be put aside at the start of each stage as the crews get down to business.

While the GTRs of father and son crew, Manion/ Manion and newly formed crew of Wooster/ Kulhanek are fighting it out in the Outright Modern competition, the EVO 9 of Millar/ Dean and WRX of Kennard/ Grimwood will be racing for a place in the inaugural Showroom 4WD competition.

You can rest assured that either in competition, at the end of each day and on Sunday afternoon in Hobart, Team “Shake n Bake” will be having fun and enjoying the spirit of Targa Tasmania!

“Shake n Bake baby! Why? Because we like to SHAKE… then BAKE!!!!”

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.

      Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.

      It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
