....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!!!

:P well done on the win

but :talktohand: about the drive home Mr 4wd sports car driver.....I was towing the datto home with a Ute in that....pretty average drive.....

LOL...we have a new leader.:P

Your car was very impressive the way it was getting out of the final corner and hauling down the straight. I was a little worried earlier in the day when you said you were only doing 1:27s:( , but not surprised to read 1:23s because your car looked visible quicker then Snowman and Scotsman

Circuit Name: Sandown

Lap time: 1:36.1 speed limited to 190kmh :edit 24-10-04: new lap time 1:31.6. Hoped to go faster but for a slow M3 and even slower TVR Griff spoiling me for 4 flying laps straight.

Troy, that'd be 1:31.6 for skylinegeoff :cheers:

Hey there,

sounds like you guys had a great day at Sandown.....

Only 5 weeks to the wedding for me and then after that I can start coming to met some of you guys at track days.....

Any GTS-T's running at Sandown????Times??

Do you guys run with NDSOC??

I saw a GTR and a GTS-T up at Winton with the WRX club when I was up there a month ago running in my standard MX-5. Was that any of you guys ???

James

Brutus - if the GTR was a white 33 with black rims it was Frank. He's a wrx club member and his car is well sorted.

Next year SAU Vic will be running with the WRX Club track days much like the MX5 club and the Liberty club has done previously.

I have run a few times this year with the NDSOC but I find their days a little slow and disorganised - probably because they keep having to pull cars out of the kitty litter or clean up the oil spill from some old datto every session. LOL

As for the GTS-T's running at Sandown last time - most were around the mid 1.30's with skylinegeoff's 1.31 being the best time - none of them were running on semi's however.

Off topic but I need the help from you guys in this thread who track your Skylines. I am getting 130 oil temps every time I go out on track, 5 hot laps and I am forced to come into pitt. Is this normal? Yes I have an HKS oil cooler. The thread I have started is here, thanks in advance for any help you can loan me!

First time out, its a pissy time, but then again nearly a stock R31 with 330,000km on the clock.. lol :rofl: Just here for reference I guess for anybody else with an old r31

Go Gordo. Were the other times up there by stealth 1:04 or 104 seconds?

Nizchick good effort but cheater tyres at the back is ...well..cheating ;)

So how is the track surface? Still bumpy as ever at the end of the pit straight? Just thinking ahead to coming home to Brisbane in Jun/Jul and getting new shocks.

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
