[EnricoPalazzo]

[BOOSTD]

It's always a yes for you dean

[EnricoPalazzo]

shhhh mate, or else everyone might find out our secret .....

[9krpm]

got my re540s and wheel alignemt today

alignment is a tad less than perfect but that will do for now

re540s on my 16" stock rims are sticky but seems to sideroll a lot more than what was on my 18". However the weight loss from 18"-->16" rims feels great in term of acceleration. I weighted last night and it's something like almost 19kg/4 wheels. ....hmm need to find some twisty roads tonight to get use to this setup and prepare for track tomorrow.

So are you guys meeting at Sefton for a small cruise up there? Cant wait to hit some high speed corners tomorrow

Common guys, come down the track and burn some rubber.

[9krpm]

The event was so fun.

There were 3 porsches there, 911tt4wd, GT3 and a ?996 race car. I think matt said I am about 5 sec behind the 911. This is not bad considering it's my first time there and the alignment setting was not setted as aggressive to prolong tyres life.

However, it did not feel like a 5 sec slower with those beast around. It's really difficult to keep up!!!!! I was getting the hang of it until my supercharger belt shredded Luckily there was no other damge and the car is still driveable. Well no boost or 9krpm for the next few weeks for me.

I think we all had fun there today. Thanks for the delicious food nightcrawler.

We should organise another Skyline track day. I hope we will get more pple next time.

Quote of the day

"You are faster than nightcrawler" from Matt

hehehe poor nightcrawler with a fresh set of Dunlop street rubber. It must have been difficult to control that beast.

[Nightcrawler]

yes, yes it was .... was very unhappy with my LM702s and found out why when we got home - after a couple of laps they went molten .... they have melted and set several times over by the looks of it - lots of thick patches that had been very runny at some point.

Was a fun day anyhow - and I only spun it once. I well and truly proved the point that my car needs new suspension too

[MattR]

was a good day out, im burnt today tough. Andrew you need betr rubber and suspension, Well done dan those 540's work a treak, nex time hope to see more out there and mabye ill have my own car by then

[Nightcrawler]

yes, had I had 540s on the front and rear like Dan, maybe I coulda got some of my power to the ground

It was great sideways fun all the same .... love the 4 wheel dorifto

[nismostu]

Hey Guys,

Was a fun day. Thanks for the food Andrew.

Was good to meet John, Matt & Dan.

Cheers,

Stuart

[9krpm]

Nice meeting you guys too.

Many thanks to nightcrawler for organising the event, providing the delicious food and putting on a drift show on the race track in front of 2 porsches hehehehe.

I am itching to get back there again guys. I want to up my boost so much to catch up with the 911 turbo. Apparently that is the fastest road legal/track car in Australia as money can buy

I hope you will get your beast then too mattr

Nightcrawler when will you be ready again?

John your car is nice mate

[Nightcrawler]

I think we should aim for an April day .... when the weather starts getting a bit cooler, but it is still unlikely to rain.

And maybe I can sort out my suspension and save up for a set of new 540s by then - then maybe I can keep up with you Dan

I betta bring a spare belt then

nightcrawler, I had a look and found that

250F is about 121Celcius...it's not too bad.

My temp maxed at 132C which is about 270F

I need an oil cooler mate.

Which oil cooler do you recommend mate?

[Nightcrawler]

We should do a group buy .... I have been following the progress of this one on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...gory=43807&rd=1 - I will be interested to see how much it goes for. It sounds like he has a business - so maybe we can approach him to do a group buy? Anyone else interested in an oil cooler? As the ad says it helps slow down the degradation of your oil - hence makes it work better for longer.
