Nige won't be running but there is a 50/50 chance of my car heading out.

We won't know until Friday arvo as I'm waiting for some new head bolts and studs to arrive.

I will keep you informed. Check the forums Sat night or Sunday morning as weather also plays a big factor in this. Don't wanna head up for racing be stuck in the carpark doing FA.

Yeah, couldnt reply last night from home.

Stupid dial-up.

Watch the forums as Dave said.

either he will post it, or i will as i'll be in touch with him (or gez/nige) on friday to see.

I know everyone was keen to see the leewah GTR in action :D

As Ash has said (coz I told him :() I will be running on the weekend if the weather holds out and isn't gonna rain at all on Sunday.

Even a slightly wet track in the morning won't dry fully till the afternoon and I don't travel to Heathcote to sit around and watch rain dry.

Currently according to the BOM, today and Sat were looking like scattered showers and then fining up. If it doesn't fine up by late Sat arvo, we prob won't go.

I will check BOM again tomorrow afternoon and check the radar and then give a post in the evening around 8ish.

SLYSX, yes I am still running standard GTR shafts :( They may break, they may hold. I'm a strong believer in that it is as strong as the driver. If you're gentle on them, they should be fine.

Dumping a clutch at 8000rpm with as much power as my car will put out isn't a good idea, standard driveline or otherwise.

As for passenger runs, if we get a time we're satisfied with, there maybe some space for a couple passenger runs but you gotta take a number coz there are plenty of people queuing up before you mate. Sorry. People have been asking me for a ride since the last time we were out and I have promised some people rides as long as the target time is achieved.

    • 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.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
    • If you do make them, im sure you would have a number of buyers.. Every GTR I've been in have rattly door windows
