Dave(blitzxtr) Was great to finally meet you and see that GTR in action,for 16psi it sure did hammer.

Dave and i had a ball considering our car only did 4 laps...two of them on pace. Engine wanted to share oil with engine bay due to a poorly designed catch tank system for circuit racing. Rather than sending it out risking putting oil on the track we decided to park it and live to fight another day.

1.18.5 is pretty good first time out and we have an idea where the set-up needs to go to better balance the car. Factory brembo's need to go and some SAU Vic. style anchors need installing.

kerchow, first excuse posted already! John P do you have any copies of the GTR driver's excuse book you can post up some excerpts from?

Well done to LotusDave's offsider for taking out the day, Mark for keeping the GTRs near the top of the table, and very honourable mention to Dave/BSM in 3rd by only 1/10th. And John for piloting John's boat home in 5th. Those top cars are absolutely flying around there.

And good on all the SAU NSW entrants for giving it a go!

excuse for what?? putting in an outstanding effort in first event? or considering other competitors when people were pressuring us to send a car out that i knew was dropping oil?

i dont need to make excuses for that sort of effort...im proud of it.

you dont need an excuse for your busted RB26's Duncan...its expected by now. :(

Although...thanks for the last comment...at least we are giving it a go mate. Its a lot more exciting than drag racing and Dave and i are keen for the next event.

that was fun. Well done to all. Great cars driven fast. Might have to build a proper SL car for next year. :(

it was great watching your car dave.

seeing the different corner entries and exits. some cars very settled and others on the raggedy edge.

it reminds me of the old touring car days. different solutions to the same problem....trying to go faster.

thanks to all the guys that entered.

^Shouldn't be aplogising for those, some good stuff in there.

Great day, ran pretty smoothly apart from a few minor incidents (an upside down Evo being one). Good to see alot of great cars being pushed to their limits (and beyond).

Lofty, what happened in the shootout? Car or brain failure?:( Congrats to the lotus boys and HiOctane racing, that GTR is a beast, and very aggressively driven (made for some great photos).

Evil, how did QSR stuff up your other sessions? was there oil on the track after he drove the ailing rx7 around for 3/4 of a lap? I don't think he'd done that sort of event before by the looks of things - first lap out he used the drift/motorcycle part of the track in the karting complex...

Anyway, I had a good day spectating, will post up some photos later.

Hey everyone no excuses for me I am stoked. Had a great day considering the amount of track time our group got 17 laps ( thanks QSR :D ) Thanks to all the SAU peoples that showed up it really helped the confidence coming down pit lane. And congrats to Chris I felt your frustration in the second and third sessions but I suppose that is racing???? We will have to get better so next time we can be in group 2 or maybe 1 :(

Congratulations to the winners and the drivers of the landcruzer for not falling over through turn 1, that car flys in a straight line OMG.

PS: Neil my car does sound shit now :)

Cheers,

Ryan

Well, he would pull over to let Ryan and I overtake...but when we got next to him he'd gas it up and try and get back in front of us. Ryan made a good move under brakes, but I wasnt too confident with his driving style, that I waited for straights....even then he'd move over again and then try and race me, then cut back in and would miss me by a meter or 2, pretty close!! Its a sprint, not door to door! lol I dont know what he was thinking?

I have no sympathy for his motor now!!!

Ryan - Very well done on your time mate, you did great!!

I still enjoyed the day, great range of cars, and the new people that I met were good blokes too!

edit - wow Jase, awesome shots mate! nice one!

All I seen was that it was turbo charged - and assuming it was the stock motor (being in clubsprint class) it was a inline 6.

Plenum was almost as big as the head! and turbo was a big fark off one.

LSD, suspension and brakes.........

etc.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By RB25inside · Posted

      Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
