Beer Baron Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 yes, congrats to the BSM boys! Well our season in prod sports came to a sad end with the porsche being heavily crashed in practice Turn 1, EC, 180kph, inside wall... not good. car is totaled. Not sure if Rob and our little band will be back next year, but if not i will offer my strut brace and services to you duncan Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/89008-skyline-wins-2005-nsw-state-champs/#findComment-1607993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted September 27, 2005 Author Share Posted September 27, 2005 nah I was coming around to lap him Geoff. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Richard that really sucks. Did the tail come out in turn 1 or was there a nudge. I guess its a reminder....only race what you can afford to loose at $9k a GTR is in my budget. Maybe its a sign he should be picking up one of those old spec carerra cup shells.....supercar pace at about 10% of the price Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/89008-skyline-wins-2005-nsw-state-champs/#findComment-1609097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Baron Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 yeah tail came out at turn 1 on the throttle, arse snapped around and fired him into the inside wall, car is quite badly damaged. the quote from someone in sydney was $76K in parts + lots-o-labour. Rob has a plan though and should have it back together for a fair bit less than that. Porsche (germany) apparently will take the old shell back, crush it, credit him towards a new one and send a replacement 05 cup car shell complete with cage etc back. He can do this as it was bought as a Cup Car. The funny thing was the car was not behaving as Rob wanted yet he still managed to qualify 5th with a 1:40.1. It would have been a great weekend.

dontfeelcold Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 at $9k a GTR is in my budget. Is that for one of those unregisterable ones? Where do you get them from?

Duncan Posted October 25, 2005 Author Share Posted October 25, 2005 kinda, you can't comply a rally import for full road use, but you can drive them to events, practice, shows, mechanics etc etc. Now the 15yo rule is finished the prices on 89-90 gtrs are more sensible again, heading back down to 400-500k yen Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/89008-skyline-wins-2005-nsw-state-champs/#findComment-1667311 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any car can be registered as a rally car as long as it has a CAMS log book and has been accepted. But the most common way to do it is to import a car from Japan for Rally use.

Duncan Posted December 1, 2005 Author Share Posted December 1, 2005 Both Production Cars (3E) and Improved Production (3J) allow GTRs these days, I'm pretty sure it is national from CAMS not a state based thing. We've also had wrx, evos, mazda gtrs running with us at various times Production Cars I think is only in NSW and National series but you have IP in QLD don't you?
