hi guys

been into turbo car since i got my licence but not serious into racing now growing up bit got a decent everyday car and just brought a r32 gtst to make a track only car.

its pretty much stock i have stripped everything out of it and just after some ideas where to start to make it good for the track. i will do a conversion later if i fall in love with racing with a 25 or 26 but atm running a 20.

want to test it out asap.

should i get new radiator befor i start

standard brakes ok

tyres??? oil etc

cage??

i just want to have a blast and get some good times

im in nsw and will attant the next race day asap

[evil_weevil]

leave it standard powerwise

but do brake pads and fluid, flush radiator - normal service kinda thing

then have fun

you dont need a cage

you need seat time

seat time = quicker laps

youre looking for 'sprint' days and not race days. have a look at the Wakefield and EC websites. Will need CAMS L2s or AASA license, $50-$100 / yr.

grab an oil cooler and some track day pads (see the brake pad thread in suspension). A1RM, HC+, Yellow/Blue Stuff, F2500 etc.

new oil in the engine, box, diff and brakes (rbf600).

hit the track with the standards rims and tires. upgrade the suspension, tires (ku36, 595rsr, r1r, rs3, ad08) then (re55, ao50) etc as you get more confident.
