If you own a Skyline then any attempt to get aero will odds on ruin the look of the car. (IMO) Just make it loud and move around on the track under power :(

If you want to go aero then buy a 180SX or an RX7, their styling looks cool when you go the whole hog with spoilers etc

Haven't had a chance to post it before....top work Russ :(

Awesome time :( and I want to see you repeat that at PI to see what you can wring out of it :/

Yeah the sweeping corners encourages me that I could get a 49-50 at PI with the current setup. :D

People have thought for a long time that I was on drugs for saying that a sub 1:50 should be a no brainer. NSW lad in his S14 did a 1:47 in shitty conditions and your EC time is within 1 second of his. I have long thought a 1:48 would be on the money for my car. Have only had the one run there with the wayward wheel alignment and old Bilsteins. Never got to run again with my Teins and half a clue of the gears i should be in. :(

So, you are in charge Russ, want to see sub 50s and you nibbling at the bum of all these GTRs :(

I you ran a 1.47 at EC a 1.48 should easily be on the card for your car at PI. It'll kind of make the gtrs look pretty bad if you can do it since they have an extra 50-120kw atw more than you and 4wd and they only lap one or two seconds quicker.

If I reinforce my boot/wing you should borrow it. Last time at PI it put some nice dints in it. Might help with a bit of rear end grip.

Hanging to try left foot break tap into turn 12 under power one day at PI. Think theres some time in it. Heard a supercar guy talking about it to transfer the weight foward for that turn. Sounds the go.

:P

I think my little wing is doing the job. It held really well on turn 1 at EC.

I would like to try the supercar one though!!!

I agree, its pretty easy to do there to in my car as its all 4th gear stuff. even up over the crest . A bit of left foot braking while balancing the loud pedal seems to work well through there.

Russ, if you want to do Dutton again this year!??! We will start having to make plans. Unless you are upgrading co-driver on me

Sorry I just read your post. I was thinking of giving it a miss this year and put the cash into my new build but if you're really keen you may be able to twist my arm...

Some in car vids of me from the event.

Good lap

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
