Just wondering who is going for a look this weekend, Saturday looks like the best day with quali, shoot-out and race 1.

Also Chisel on after. looks like no expence has been spared, should be great and the cars will sound awesome in this environment. Looks like the fords have a firm grip on the championship with only a slim chance ov Will being able to catch him but still ads some excitment. Hope to see some of you there.....

Cheers Stuart

I hope........

its an absolute disastrous flop, and as a result the state government throw an equivalent amount of money for a permanent circuit to replace Oran Park :P

Sorry I can't support the event.

I would love to see Chisel play though

I would of liked to have gone to support Garth Walden..Hasn't been at a V8 meet since 2004!! so will be cheering for him :nyaanyaa:

But I am car shopping and will watch it on TV more than likely..

Alot of my mates will be there and have been complaining that its not even finished being set up correctly yet! :)

hehe... nice description Benny.

Mark Berry is playing hollywood and leading the brute utes out for a parade lap in the R34 , i told him to see if he could lap them . :)

i would have liked to have been there actually.

But i do agree it's very wrong not to support the local tracks and the wider motorsport community.

That was my opinion exactly.

Aside from V8 Supercars burying other motorsport categories in Australia, I can't support the NSW government pissing our money up the wall by putting up a temporary circuit for a few days, then spending more money pulling it all back down again.

Replace OP with something. Or improve EC.

    • 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.
