Didn't see the last lap times from the supersprint at PI but up until then my best was an improvement to 2:00.55 on the road rubber. Was also running lower boost at around 11psi and the same mod as Snowie.......

Engine: the damn thing revs to 9500 stock. and I reckon they stuffed another cam in there somehow.

Power: 76 rwkw @ 6,200rpm. 176 rwkw @ 6,500rpm. Its like its got a fcuking t88.

edit BTW I noticed that the S2000 GTP time was

"1:54.14, APCC Honda S2000"

If semi slicks are worth 5 seconds I was only 2 seconds off the pace of the race car. That's nice.

Times were done at one of the monthly level 1 sprint days at QR. The sprint layout is always used for this and is considerable shorter than the full circuit.

Ill dig up the specs etc for Calder, getting some base lap times will be difficult since noone really races there anymore, but will post up some club times.

Meanwhile jlnewton steps to straight to the top of the field...come on QLD, get out there and give it a shake:)

OK just had a bash at Wakefield yesterday for the 1st time. In wet weather conditions too with semi slicks (yes went off the track in a big way!). Best time was 1.15/R32 GT-R. Looking forward to going back there in the dry for sure, great track... full of corners + very aggressive!!!

Cheers Duncan. Would love to go out again but damn that drive home was so hardcore. I hated every minute of it. My car was aquaplaning all over the place so I literally had to drive at 65km/hr all the way back to Sydney!!! Trucks were overtaking me... so scary... I was tired, wet, cold, no music in the car, damn!!! I won this though, so I'm happy :( I was the fastest GT-R on the day. Best recorded time on the day was 1.14 and it was an EVO8 set up for rally. trophy.jpg

Updated lap time from Sandown Maserati day. Some seriously nice cars out.

Trackday ettiquette note: when you own a barge TVR or BMW M3 and a Skyline approaches fast from behind.....get out of the way!! Don't hold the inside line and carry on a braking duel.

haha - Geoff - you looked like you were going to burst when that TVR drove up! LOL

My time improved to 1.25.7. Going to be knocked off from 1st spot though. We all just better hope Ben never finds this thread or else the rest of us will look so crap! LOL.

    • The 32 still sits untouched with the broken gearbox. So a little off topic but not worth having a whole new thread. The daily starlet has gotten back on the road after 9 months. Suspected blown HeadGasket at a track day resulted in a bit of scope creep rebuild. The motor got a full tear down, pressure testing, machined for MLS HG, ARP head bolts, new bearings, all new seals etc also noticed some fatigue on the stock exhaust manifold so obviously the answer was a steam pipe manifold and highflow turbo. The exhaust was also looking tired with some rust holes. So I got a slightly over kill system made up consisting of Vibrant resonator and muffler with a highflow cat. The new highflow turbo had a larger inlet so instead of adapting the old intake got a case of the might as wells and had a nicer alloy intake made After the run in was finished i bought a (probably considered retro/vintage) EBC becasue "might as well"
    • Pretty stout result. How much boost? Anything left in it?
    • Just dropped the car off at MX5 Mania to install the intake plenum and give it a little retune  My impatience hates the waiting game 
    • SAMSONAS      Just saying      U know and we know U wanna     Just a matter of time....
    • This is kind of what I expected given the use case. I took my liners out for track days too.... It makes me consider just getting a diffuser and not bothering with the arch liners themselves. For the most part I would like to avoid water/mud/jank splashing up from under the car onto the bottom of the engine, lines, wiring, etc etc. (but brake ducts are cool too). Especially given this post on SAU here: Where it's implied you have to cut them because the actual tub is different? Which is pretty damn worrying because that is where the liners rub in a GTR with wider wheels... I definitely won't want to pay $2000 for plastic then cut them up. It also means said wider wheels rub on the tub in a GTT? FML. That said, I have found some evidence someone ran a 295/30/18 without scrubbing these liners. (and by extension.. the tub).
