Did anyone get footage of the cars on the heritage display drive? Our in car footage was pretty terrible. I'd appreciate it if someone could share their video of the drive with me? (Hoping someone was in the stands).

@DJBarnstar, hats off to you mate, you were ripping it up all day. 

I watched a bunch of your motorkhana runs... i'd say committed about sums them up. You were damn quick.

There must be more pics?

Full dump coming through. It looks as though i spent too much time talking, not enough time taking photos...

Edit: mine are in chronological order (because lazy).

Did you trailer from Melbourne? That's commitment!! Well done! 

Sure did... I'm not sure I would do it again. It wasn't the easiest thing to do. But it was certainly worth doing once. I met heaps of super friendly people and a lot of people knew that my car was an LM Limited, which was a pleasant surprise. 

I had an awesome time, and wish I had done a couple of passes on the drags or gone in the motorkhana. Next time, hopefully someone else brings some cars up and I can share shipping with them and just fly up. 

Also got to chat in person with Josh and Chris from Galvsport. These were the guys who built my car and who got it ready for shipping. Until Saturday I hadn't met them at all. Top guys and really friendly. Worth the trip just to meet them.

Thanks Steve,

Shame we didn't get to chat!

I must say that was all Daisy had. I've never tried a Motorkhana with street tyres before and in many ways was a lot more fun than with Semi's!! Loose as!

Pretty meh with the times on the drag strip though. Obviously not making the power that the dyno graph would indicate.

Best car meet I have ever been to. Ended up getting 7 Moto runs and 7 drag runs and was still able to drive back to Canberra that night with no breakages! Winning!

I think my first post is confusing.

Upload as many as you want into this thread. Then we do the competition later with an image you pick.

 

I want to see what I missed out on!

"...what you missed out on!" ;)
This ain't my pic, so it's not in the comp.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
