just on normal street tyres. they don't allow rally tyres (or anything nobby)

the fast/serious guys use semi slicks becaus ethe track ends up being really hard packed and rubbered up like a speedway track after a couple of runs. hearing tyres squeal on dirt is strange...

Ah thought so looks like fun keeping it straight, wouldn't mind doing an event like that in mine be good to test a few things out before a rally.

the first video the car, the car that went round you on cold tyres and then spun was quiet funny

First session of the day, he had an engine oil drama that over filled his catch can and was dripping out underneath hence the smoke as he went past.

nice Mark! 56 is moving at Lakeside! Its a challenging place to learn - especially in such a fast car. You're going very well. Loking at the minimum speeds in corners you're pretty well on the money as far as I'm concerned. Stokell day looks like a good way to go and get the lines down pat.

tell you what, that bump on the left hander between carousell and the bridge is alot worse at your speed! jeezus!

btw, in some later sections I was getting close to just a slight lift at the kink and flat out under the bridge and over the crest into Hungry. if that doesnt make you feel alive I dont know what will.

Here's a little vid of me in an M3 under controlled conditions. Once a year BMW take all the Master Parts Advisers and Service Master Tech's away for a weekend of fun. This year was E/C,,,we did track work,,,khana's,,,abs testing and go-karts. Oh and free food and lots of piss.

This vid was made using an apple 4,,,handheld by my passenger,,,excellent quality.

Jeff Brabham is the head driver trainer,,,great guy with tons of info.

Cheers

Neil.

What's with braking before the 200m mark Neil!!! :P

    • Hi everyone, just looking to see what's available in the GTR seat options, testing the waters on what's available. Wanting a driver's seat to replace my old school OG jap race seat, going to re-register the car so need a factory seat. Prices currently seem to go from $300 to $2k for a driver's seat. What's options are there, that's good condition and actually a realistic price? Located Brisbane. Thanks
    • Are these a plug and play setup, and do they need a tune, like a haltech ecu etc? Thanks
    • Nice work on the paint. Those 3 studs are long as. 
    • Hi everyone, still chasing a bunch of this stuff. Thanks
    • Been over 2 months since I have done anything on the S15 and had a day off today so got stuck into mounting the radiator and intercooler. I ended up using factory bottom mounts as bolted in and I did order some gktech top brackets but didn't work with the PWR radiator so made up some with aluminium flat bar. Spent way to long on them but pretty happy how they are. Next job was the intercooler. Used some more aluminium flat bar and did the bottom mounts first. Top was easy as just one long piece and 2 90 degree coming off rad support and welded them on. The bumper support required some notching to let the outlets sit where I want so will add some reinforcement later to strengthen it. I have also bought ecu and waiting for it to arrive. Went with a Link g4x Xtreme but will be adding a ptmotorsport expander to add a few extra inputs over CAN. Went through a few different configurations on pclink to get what I want to allow future expansion for sensors and gearbox upgrades. Ordered gktech rear arms but looking at the hardrace lower control arms to have some extra adjustment too will see how the alignment looks after first setup. Got 2 more weeks of work before shut down and will have almost 4 weeks to work on this so planning on hopefully firing up mid January.   Also bought a 2015 brz with a heap of good gear, did noosa hill climb a month back. Owned it for 3 days changed alignment and sent it. Finished the weekend 2nd in class and only .3 off the 180sx best time last year. MCA Red coilovers, gktech rear lca, bolt on lock kit and tie rods, whiteline toe arms, cusco 1.5way diff and 4.5 ratio, endless brake pads, headers, exhaust, perrin intake and e85 tune. Electronic steering adjustment, nankang crs with koya wheels 17x9 +35. Have bought rear traction arm and relocation kit, extended studs and v3 tie rod kit. Planning on also getting flex tune as lucky to get 300km a tank with e85 and short ratio. Car is a heap of fun to drive and super easy to work on. AC in the line up at Noosa was mint in 35degree weather.
