Yes the silver gtt. I really like this track like a compact winton more handling less power.

I was fighting understeer most of the day as were others, up hill brake and turn sections were tricky.

After doing hh then rocking up for maserati I'm in (+ my car's in) recovery mode atm.

Ah yes met you at Sandown! Good times!

nice.

Not that it is going to make a huge difference for this year but what mods do you ahve so I can put you in the correct class?

Keen to find out so I can compare times! ;)

You know sandown/pi terrifies me more than hh, I think it's the speeds involved.

I've been looking at richo's sandown vid and see I have to brake deeper and hold higher speed into turn 1 and back kink - both another 10kph higher - easier said than done.

Car has a gtx3071 .63 iw, 3" exhaust + metal cat, ~235rwkw, coil overs, standard sways and brakes, 6 point cage.

After sandown I now have a "new" shriek after 5k rpm to investigate, probably a leak or crack in exhaust somewhere.

Also noticed once again the hot weather stuffed my tune so had to pull some timing on sun as well.

Always something to work on or improve.

Talking of delays, currently working 6 days a weeks, so with work, family, household chores etc only just got around to reviewing footage.

Anyhow thought I'd fill in the gap between events with this clip, so what is this about Haunted Hills being a track for a decent driver in a well sorted chassis :)

Is it just my work computer blocking content... or are you missing a link there bloke?

    • 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.
    • 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.      
    • 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
    • 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.. 
    • 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.
