Showza - what happened to the car? Saw you working on it in the garage but didn't get to see u at all out on the track.

Simon - ever so consistent, the 25 seems to be working well, how bad was the damage from hitting Kelly's car?

Had an awesome day out, i wasnt even expecting to qualify so extremely happy to make the top 8 in group 2. All be it if it was because someone spat the dummy and left me to have a solo run :ninja:

Looking forward to round 3 now, bit more experienced by then, hopefully place abit higher.

Thanks flick, nice meeting you and Luke, well done mate on making that far on your first comp awesome job, congrats!

I was having a bit of issues with grip at the rear, tried softening the suspension before qualifying but made it worse lol, but yes had a good day, good experience for my first comp. I wasnt expecting to qualify, the level is getting higher and higher, a lot of skill out there.

Showza, sorry about your car mate, but you know youll be back bigger and better than ever, give us a yell if you need a hand with anything man.

If anyone have some vids of practice and qualifying, post them up! :cool:

Cheers

Ric

yeah i had a good day... til my two crashes lolol. First was during my top 16 battle with Adam May on the last corner (turn 2) of the last battle m,y tyre delaminated... lost all grip and i did a 180 into the tyre wall... no reall damage so i wasnt that worried about it. I made it through and so i changed tyres and got back into the next round with Kelly McKinnon where i was running some tyres i hadnt run before and they didnt grip as much as the stuff i was running all day.. so i looped on turn 1 and kelly came at me and smashed into my rear door... so if anyone knows of any drivers side 32 4 door rear's i need one :P

But yes... the 25 is nuts, and damn does the car go so well now.. absolutely BAKES the tyres hahaha

Also missed the 31 in practice hit a wall pretty hard, saw the damage after though, ouch!

cheers again guys, cant wait for round 3 now, now that i got the first comp out the way should be alot less nervous out there. Should be fun.

rbman, i got a few mods, nothing overly extreme yet. Its got enough power for my skills at the moment. When i get bit better will go hunting for more power im sure.

Spewing about your car showza, i heard you come into the pits and cringed instantly. Good luck with it man.

Simon, as flick said, i missed both your hits too. Glad to hear the damage aint too bad.

Richo, was good to meet you too man, watched a couple of your runs from flicks footage last night, if you held turn 2 i reckon you would have qualified for sure. Good luck at round 3 man.

See all of you there.

    • Haven't updated this is a while. -5 speed conversion is done. Then center console, parking brake handle, and mounting bracket can be adapted from a R34 since the S2 parts are all disco. Console is a slightly different grain pattern and color but works fine. R33/ R34 GTS (no booster) clutch pedal works as well as the matching master cylinder. Wiring is simple, jump the starter connector at the fuse box, note which wires are connected at which position on the auto neutral safety switch and cut off the switch harness and connect to the corresponding switch on the 5 speed. -Rear R34 rear subframe swap is completed. Full Nismo arm set, 2-way LSD set up soft, 322mm Brembo brakes, Ohlins Flag-R coil overs (need to drop the spring rate 1Kg) -RB swap is under way. HKS Step 2 High Response 2.8 BCD stroker kit / Step 2 V-Cam / GTIII 4R Kit I may not use the 4R kit but not sure yet as I've seen some pretty decent dyno sheets on it and it doesn't spool as slow as people think when you have v-cam. I have the wiring manual for the car and a spare 260RS harness so the wiring shouldn't be that bad but I just haven't had the time to invest in it. If anyone has a suggestion for someone who can handle it let me know! I have a bunch of spare 5mt swap parts and some Nismo 580 turbos if anyone needs/wants them hit me up. Located in California but willing to ship. As always, thanks to all the members who have answered my questions and helped this project keep moving!      
    • Did Car Inspect get back to you? How bad was the actual "structural" damage? What front surgery was required?
    • I would be, however the last PS I owned was a PS1 and the last GT I played was GT1 lol. Also, how do you dads even have time to do anything? I barely have time to even sleep 7 hours a night!
    • I was thinking of setting up a multiplayer comp. Just a series that anybody could join and we could run a table here.  Anybody interested in that?
    • Thanks - to be sure will the WHC34 work?  I can’t find the other one anywhere.  Thanks
