Hey now, I distinctly remember knocking a 400+awkw GTR out of the battles with a sub 150rwkw Supra! Unsure who was driving but that at least has to be a mark of shame on the NSW wall.

That's funny I remember a NSW supra (stock auto) knocking out a VIC supra the time before last...

:D

The mark of "spew" at the dinner table will never be surpassed

In the end a supra which everyone calls a boat took out 2nd overall ahead of any other GTR...so "TEH GTR CAN LOSE"...if only occasionally...hehehe...

*Double flame suit on!!*

This thread needs more sh!t talking!!

All I know is I'm trying to work out how to get another liter and an extra turbo under the bonnet....

I'm thinking sub200kw just not enough to catch some of u guys..

LOL...I do have 3 litres but I only have 1 turbo martin...and its a pretty small one too...for a 2J...

I did some numbers the other day and if i didn't end up with a 1 x WD, and 2x 4WD helli sessions, my scorecard would've had a top 10 easy.

But fk that, 4WD helli's are much more entertaining, as is smoke pouring outta the air vents for 5mins afterwards.

I can't wait to go upto a mates "bogan" DECA as well call it where it's just blown V8's doing summernats style burnout displays... I'll show em what 4WD helli's are about :D

sounding like a true race driver there Ash.

- if i had AO50's

- if i had another 50rwkw

- if i had more experience

- if the sun was higher in the sky

- if the air pressure was higher

- if i hate eaten lamb instead of pork last night

lol ash, so if you didn't get lost you would have done better?

Not a chance that i "wouldnt' have gotten lost. I dont have the brain functionality to remember some of those maps LOL

I was destined for WD's and DNF's :D

Nah not true. Maybe on long wang but that's it. 200 is a good number that you could prob get with your setup and that's definitely enough.

I'm not to surprised about that to be honest, alot of the gtr's and evo's got beaten by 'lesser' cars. I was actually quicker on the skidpan then most of the 'better'' cars. Its not the car but more the driver that'll determine how good your times are, you could put the stig in a fwd diesel golf and he would still be quicker then all of us haha.

Over a 30-40 second run though there really isn't "that" much of an advantage for any car really.

Just comes down to going the right way, not hitting cones for the most part.

One cone can send you from top 5 to outside the top 10, same for a WD/DNF

Yeah the LW is def noticable.

and I cannot believe the difference suspension set-up made since the last outing..(roughly the same HP as then)

But I recon 220-230 in something like mine would be about perfect. maybe cut a little weight out as well..(that's from me not the car..)

Plus a diff that locked properly would be nice as well..

that said the car is def faster then me I just have to learn to drive it to it's limits!

    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
