big thanks to all the organisers and volunteers for getting this day up and running, had an absolute ball, the car went hard all day and shaved 2 seconds off my best time from last year

also thanks to Brian for taking me for a spin in the corvette, such a beast, and to Mark (Staz88) for sitting shotgun and teaching me how to spin out like a boss, ended up shaving off those 2 seconds straight up next timed session. Hopefully Luke got some footage from that passenger session, was quite fun

Cant beat the last session of the day though which we all seemed to treat as a fun session, jez blasting past me through the esses twice, and bighead overtaking me up the hill....... sideways....... was pissing myself laughing when i saw him coming in the mirror

hey mate the first lap in my video is the passenger session your talking about you can see the dust i think as i come out of the esses. If not ill review more footage and make sure i put it up lol

i had my camera and go pro, but in the end cbf putting them on the car

someone dropped the ball and didn't bring the club go pro's so no vid's :(

if i knew you were wanting to use one i woulda lent you mine

first time ever being on track @ smsp

had a great time was not to fond of last flag Marshall she was very flag happy in the passager sessions .

Happy with my time just can't wait to beat it

Highlight of the day was seeing FATZ in a passenger session split 2 cars down the middle on the straight right infront of all the marshals and i was near dave with his radio and i hear "WE NEED TO FLAG THE SESSION! THESE GUYS ARE GOING ALL OUT NOT 80%" i lost my shit hahahaha!

how many boys ran semi's? be keen to know how the street tyres ones fared

I was running 2x worn Dunlop on the front, 1x kumho and 1x maxxis on the rear.

They were getting slippery when the track was getting some heat into it.

Hence, I called it a day.

My tires were maaad lol. Not as much power as other cars but i was running on the front 1x potenza re001, 1x potenza re002. And the rears were parelli Pzero's All second hand my tire shop gave them to me $25 each 235/45/17. Very good and they have about 60% tread lol.

I had semis on the front and chalk on the rear, hence overly tail happy very dodgey on all runs, will roll and pump the rear guards so i can fit the semis next time and maybe even get an alignment done rather than using my eye to align the rears... Lol!

Apprentice wage sucks assssss!

Anyone got pictures of the flaming Nur?

KC, hope you're feeling better mate. Even though you lost your pride and joy, it could have been worse, you walked away from it.

    • Hi, does anyone know how I can, or can a moderator remove this advertisement please.  Has been sold a long time ago and would like to remove references. Thanks. 
    • There are adaptors that allow you to delete the booster and use an s15 clutch master cylinder.    if you want to keep the booster they are still available brand new 
    • I visited again today: It would appear they have painted the main body of the car and some parts of some of the panels, so I can say that I now have BMW parts in my car, much to the envy of @Dose Pipe Sutututu It is still covered in dust which is quite the tease but I did look at a few circumspect spots that will be behind bumpers and such and wiped some dust away: After my repeated begging to PLEASE DONT PAINT OVER THE ENGINEERING CERTIFICATE (you have to re-engineer the entire car if they do) I see THIS: Which is great. Excellent job tbh at least to me. A better non dusty example would be the backs of the doors that have been painted: Giving a reasonable contrast between old and new (I know the old isn't clear coated on the inside of doors). The door card will well and truly cover where the old paint is, you can see in the second pic some of the black butyl/whatever shit is sticking the plastic sheet behind the door transfer that has happened since it's clearly been stuck back on. The most maddening thing about this colour is every time I saw it in the wild it looks like another colour, same with photos of many cars with the same colour looking wildly different in every photo anybody ever takes and this is no exception. But stand a little further back and it suddenly looks dark AF. I did tell them when I was discussing which of the 70 million charcoal colours to choose from (a porsche one, a BMW one, or a R32 GTR one etc) that if they just ignored me and chose one at random I would probably never notice. Maybe they did. But the colour is supposed to be B39 (BMW Mineral Gray). Boring I know, but the R34 sedan (to me) really shows off it's boat-ness when you paint it in a bright colour like bayside blue or white or whatever else. I do have a fondness for AR2 Nissan Red, but decided against that because it'll have pretty odd contrast to random bits unpainted (like engine bay, bits of trim etc, and maybe it'll fade). And people will always fkin comment on AR2. Everything remains super dusty. I have tracking numbers for the new heads, as well as some Improved Racing goodies, but they probably will be a next year thing by the time they end up on the car. I did some maths on the heads and I know why nobody goes to this extent in Australia, because it's really not worth it, given I could have just CNC'ed my current heads, bought a FAST102/TB and used my current rocker/spring/cam combination and get a 383 stroker (or stroked a 6.0 GenIV bottom end to 6.6L) built for the same price of just the setup in the mail/on the floor here. Or I could have bought a LS3 and a Drysump system. And then have a complete engine to sell. Oh well
    • We just disconnected the vacuum line if I remember correctly, booster is still there. Is there a rebuild solution for the booster or a different adapter that will work for GTR chassis?
    • Yeah 4wd (boosted) has a recess in the firewall for the booster, and 2wd is flat - the example in the link shows the flat surface. When you deleted the booster, did you just attach the factory slave cylinder directly to the recess in the firewall with no adaption?
