Personally i would prefer good wet weather braking over good traction in the wet.

Why not have both! Braking in the wet at traffic speeds is only gonna be as good as your front tyres!

I hearya dude. both is great but i become miss daisy when it rains. Traction even in the worst conditions will not be an issue to me.

Lol,

Seems to be a right royal clusterf*ck at work today. Email Down, Internet Down, Document Management system down, 90% of all other systems down.

Glad I didn't make it in, somebody else's problem :thumbsup:

Too much wet this weekend. Garage got 2" covering and it almost came inside the house :thumbsup:

I put some oober drainage out the front too..... stupid thing got blocked between the street run off and the drains I put in... grrr.

Yeah, Rain is good, the grass seed we threw out last week is about two inches long, but at the moment 70% of it is under water. I think it's drain digging time, when it finally stops raining on the bloody weekends.

I just have more weeds growing :thumbsup:

And haven't been able to mow for weeks

havent had to mow a lawn in like 18 months because of the horses lol. That's the only thing they're good for.

Apparently they taste good too.

Well, we just had people bring in old crt monitors asking why they werent working. The things were filled with water because they left the window open :\

My coon's brakes arent too fantastic, they shudder in the dry (even with new rotors/pads) so it's a good thing I only had to drive to aspley and back this morning and then 5 minutes to work.

I was thinking about how awesome it would be to have awd today, getting up a hill with t/c on wasnt fun.

It's raining fuccking sideways!!!

Lol, I opened the garage door this morning, saw that, and instantly thought of Forest Gump giving a breakdown of the different types of rain.

sup mangs. Scored a full exhaust for the GTR. Front pipes, cat, and 3 inch catback with canon for $220. Bargain.

by scored, is another member going to start a thread in a few minutes saying "some cunt stole the exhaust off my r32 gtr."?

today's drive to work was great fun. No one on the road cause you couldn't see more then about 20 metres in front of you this morning

The Exige Scura

Which are all the same as these - Exige Cup 260

All 260Hp 2ZZ-FE toyota supercharged engines, the only real difference is the Type 72 runs Bilstein/Eibach suspension and the Scura and Cup 260 run full Ohlins external cannister race suspension. All of them are around 900Kg on the road.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
