I was out there watching a couple of mates, greyish CA18 bluebird ended up running in the mid 1:22's and then finally blew it's turbo, turns out a GT28RS can only take 24psi for so long, and also the blue CA18 KE30 2 door corolla which lost a wheel on it's final lap (still unsure what happened here as I saw him with my own eyes check every wheel nut on the car before venturing out, possibly the slip on spacers???) this was running pretty consistantly in the low 1:22's all day still cant manage to break into the 21 mark.

Some very nice cars out thats for sure. Blue 32 you car blows some insane flames at times :P :P

I took my R35 GTR out to Mallala yesterday for track day (my Race R33 was not ready - still waiting for better brakes)

Mananged a best of 1min 16.4 (timed using GPS track timer supplied by another R35 owner).

Keir ran a 15.8 in his white R35! He was flying. He also had his new EVO X out there but the brakes were not up to

the pace but I think they got into the teens with it.

I did run a bunch of 18s & a few 17s. I was amazed at the different times I was getting from different people timing with stopwatches etc for the same lap! From now on I am only going to rely on driftbox or GPS track timers as the stopwatches

do not seem to be very accurate.

Cant wait to get my race R33 out there with the new brakes on it.

Your 35 is great mate! Cheers for the spin in it today, really appreciated it, still can't get the smile off of my face! :P

Would definately be keen to see what the 33 can do, something to aspire to I guess :down:

Well i guess it depends on who you get to do your timing then. The People doing the modern reg' timing have been checked against electronic timers and they were within 0:00.010

    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.  
    • It's more like on average the things I see a lot of things going wrong. Yes, usually the people who reach out are the ones who are having problems but on average it feels like mechanics and tuners here aren't really competent. I swing between thinking my standards are just way too high and wondering whether people really are just this dumb. I just had the strangest 10+ reply argument on a Facebook group over someone insisting that the factory R34 GTT boost control solenoid reduces boost pressure to 5 psi when it's on and raises boost pressure to 7 psi when it's off despite showing the exact plumbing in the factory service manual and the solenoid behavior detailed in the FSM.
    • I steam cleaned my near new set of volk gtc wheels 14 years ago and farrkkked them lol. The clear coat cracked like spider webbing in several areas. Lesson learnt don't do that. 😭
    • If you don't touch the CAS, then you're fine.
