Yes thats zandvoort haha ;)

your right, its not the most easy car to drive on zandvoort, with the tight turns, hills, and few ''brake killing'' brake points.

normaly im round the 2 minute barier on street tyres (we have to run dot tires in the series).

curently im running Falken RT615 semi's in hard compound, with some softer tyres like R888 ill have to take an

extra 3 seconds, will try that later this year.

first event i'm attending will be superlap battle its 17 of june!

You have to go to assen to, its a nice track for skylines, much faster than zandvoort ;)

Was hoping to do Zandvoort in early August but have some other things coming up which means I can't be os until later that month. Zolder and Spa appear to be a good track for street cars with some grunt. :)

I see the car still has plates. How is Holland for registration of modified cars. The cost to register cars in Belgium is rather scary.

Its quite easy to get plates, they don't look at anything. Most difficult is to keep them, as you cant make more then 98db, but normaly its no problem.

Let me know when you come over!

Spa is the best track there is, together with "the ring" ofcoars!

Hey mate,

What gearbox are you running? Fantastic looking 32!!

Not sure whether you were asking about improving lap times, but if you were :P for quicker lap times IMO ... (all relative to budget obviously)

Your engine looks the happiest bw 5500 to 8000 (I like to

400ps at 4500rpm newer turbos can do this) .... with a t78 there is definately time to be gained coming out of a slow corners 70km/h On the tyres you quoted ... I dare say ur loosing seconds off ur lap times as this will compound into the next turns.

What are ur tire options? The ones u quoted are at least a couple of

Seconds slower per lap compared to a Hankook z221 or yoko ao50

or even bridgestone re11s as these are all in the same class in oz...

Good luck for now !!

:cheers:

Thanks mate,

I know i can get seconds quicker with other tires.

I bought those tires for half the normal price, just to try how they are, i will try the the avon zzr or maby the new federal fz201. Yokohama and other brands are difficult to get, and verry verry expensive. Only yoko's that are available are the ad08, but im not sure how good they are....

I need an extra 10kmph in the slow corners.

It would help me with the slow spooling turbo...

Time to import some track tires! Haha

Will be upgrading the turbo for next season to a holset or gtx series or something like that

Yoko AD08's are one of the best street tyres around if not, the best for basically a street "semi" legal tyre. You would definitely pick up some time using better tyres and more speed in the corners!

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
