Last month at the Powerplay Imports day they were doing 1:09:5s - from memory that was a totally stock car, stock tyres etc...

My inital response was just going to be... "Quick!"... lol

Was it dry. That is a decent time...only i would have expected it to be 3 to 4 seconds quicker

hmm I don't know that they were the world's best driver, but I don't think it has another 3-4 seconds on those tyres, probably only 1 or 3. remember its only got about as much power as your average vic track gtr, and 300kg more.

Yeh i suppose the tyres could have been shagged. But looking at how quick they are in all the magazine comparisons...the 997 GT2 does 1:04s at Wakefield. Russ kicked butt at Superlap in his doing i think 1:15s or 1:16s which compared to what the other cars were doing and their respective times at Wakefield...well i would have expected at least 1:06s.

But yes, perhaps tyres were shagged

I don't think thats a decent time at all.

sub 10's is mediocre these days. You need 8's or better to be considered quick

The NA silvia i just bought has a best of 1:09.3 at wakefield (natsoft) on the old surface. It has 120 rwkw....

You're right to expect 6's roy

This car was at the Eastern Creek private practise day on Friday 24th.

Certainly was not very quick - or was not as quick as I expected. I actually overtook him underbrakes into turn 2. I think they were just testing as opposed to trying to go flat out as I imagine it would be alot quicker that that.

In the 4th session the cars motor blew! It was sitting on the grass and had dropped oil on the track. They cancelled the session as a result.

Not a cheap track day eh ?

    • Maybe but doubt it, when I jacked it up it was creaking in the j arm again. The inners are all good, I inspected them. Remember that also it did fix the problem but temporarily.
    • Could be the other bushes. The inners.
    • Once you lose the adjustable bushes, you have almost no adjustment at the front for anything that matters. You can only wind so master caster at the front, and ~7° is fine. You won't have choice of front camber. If you only have rear camber arms (ie, do not also have adjustable upper tension arms), you shouldn't change their length very much, because you will introduce bump steer. And, you will struggle to find a workshop that will be capable of doing all the adjustment work necessary to simultaneously achieve a decent rear camber number, get the toe right, and minimise bump steer. I would guess there's probably 8 hours of work there. So, stockish rear camber is fine. Although, keep in mind, that stock camber, by number value, does not mean stock arm length when the car is lowered. You will need to lengthen the RUCA to get back to stockish values and that will require the tension arm to be lengthened a little also. Without any other guidance, any change made to the RUCA should have the 2/3 of the same change made on the tension arm. But that is only a rough rule of thumb and the relationship might not remain linear across a wide range of adjustments. And it might not also be as close to minimum bump steer as you could achieve if you did the bump steer measurement and adjustment properly.
    • Well it does have a motor with the same DNA as an Accord V6 motor. The J30A is a successor to the Tiger rice cooker C32A motor found in those cars.
    • FD RX7 I would probably marry if legal R32 GTR is toughest NSX looks like it's made from leftover Prelude and Accord bits
