yeah my guess is it would run close to standard weight anyway. I mean sure you can remove standard heavy seats etc.

but then add an approved cage, extinguishers, terra-trip, terra-phone etc etc and you are back where you started. :P

True, we're right on the limit at 1600 odd kg, what tyres it turns up on will be interesting. If it's dry for most of it, it's touch and go re tyres lasting for us, and i assume the 35 will be the same, but at the end of the day everyone's in the same boat. Make 'em last or cop the penalty. :P

Can't comment enough on how good this thing looks.

I am now begging:

"Beat Porsche - Bloody Win!!!!!!! Or at least get to Day5 - I will be on 1 of the 99 bends out of Queenstown, I would really like to watch/photo the team Donut King R35 going through this unreal section"

"Watch out for ice/snow" - good luck,

Mike.

Mike, bugger Queenstown, get yourself onto the Very fast sweepers around the middle of Mt Arrowsmith where it opens onto the plains and over bridges. If it's not doing 280+ there I'll, well, I don't know what I'll do but I'll be really suprised :D

Oh no what a pain. Stop for someone?

Jason and I had a phat time chasing down Ayers in his 33 in 2006 in the area I describe above :D Two GTR's going at it at the top end of 5th :D

It was like something out of GranTurismo at Trial Mountain or something..... but so much.... realerer! And awesome! :P

we had to stop for an accident, and there were like 10 cars already stopped and blocking the road (even though one 1 is ment to stay with the crash!) so we drive in convoy to the end.

Hope to get all the way through this year :banana:

Yeah well the crew get weighed and the car goes over a weigh bridge at least once during competition.

I haven't actually checked the rules for Moderns, but I thought it stated minimum weight could be "factory weight less 10% plus 47 kg for safety equipement/cage etc.

Now, wouldn't that get a 35 around 1610kg odd? Like I said, I haven't actually checked the rule, so i could have just wasted your time in reading this :thumbsup: sucker!

it used to be -5% + 43kg back under LMS, but now M1 and M2 are factory + 43kg, M3 is -5% + 43kg now.

(a) the minimum weight must be in accordance with the manufacturers original specifications, provided either by details obtained from the following Government web site http://rvcs-prodweb.dot.gov.au/ (for vehicles listed), homologation/recognition papers, workshop manuals or sales specifications (in that order of priority).

This weight will be deemed to include all liquid tanks to be at the normal operating levels as foreseen by the vehicle manufacturer.

(b) Minimum competition weight for M1 and M2 will be established by taking the minimum weight as established in (a), plus 43kg (for tools, jack, one spare wheel and safety equipment). For M3, the minimum competition weight shall be established by taking the minimum weight as established in (a), less 5%, plus 43kg.

    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stop on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, you need to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off  
    • @99RS4just wondering if you ever took photos of the footwell lighting / how you bypassed the controller, im keen to haver footwell lighting come on when I open the doors too   
    • Ultimately, if the tip is not far into the runner and the o-ring seals, then you are in business. Have you applied pressure to it as is? It is not really a problem for the injector to twist once it is bolted down, the oring seals it and you don't want it jambed into the oring too hard The plenum is intended to take multiple size lower injectors with different adapters, but the way you have it is fine if they seal.
    • Are these the Dmax ones you are in reference too? https://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35#description Not a bad idea to get the uni flange ones. I have sent just jap an email too. Will see what they say lmao. Only thing is the Dmax ones are on a big back order. Low key anything will be better then my OEM ones I got as they are sounding like popcorn when I go under load lmao 😂☠️🪦.
