The chase for SUB 1:40 continues!

One thing WTAC highlighted was our lack of top end speed. With a trap speed of just 230 we were sitting in the bottom half of the Clubsprint field.

While we were making monster torque figures, it was coming at the expense of top end performance. The small turbine housing was giving us incredible response down low but choking the engine higher in the RPM range.

It’s worth remembering that the turbo kit on this car was never designed for record breaking lap times. It started life as a development kit, and we’ve simply made the most of what we had available.

Our goal heading into WTAC was always to go sub 1:40. With an optimal lap of 1:40.5, I genuinely threw everything I had at the car with the power it was making at the time while still being on a road tyre.

Now it’s time to address those limitations.

A new turbine housing will help reduce exhaust backpressure and allow the engine to breathe up top. Combined with our fuel system upgrades, we’re looking to trade some of that monster low end torque for a stronger, more usable power curve.

We’re confident these changes will give us what we need to crack that 1:39 before the end of the year.
We’ve come this far making do with what we had. Time to see what this thing can really do.

It’s been a minute since we’ve posted some mechanical work!

With WTAC prep taking up all our spare time, customer work took a back seat. But we’re back, and this one was all about longevity!

277,000km on the clock. The million mile 86 project starts here!

First order of business? Throwing the twin-plate clutch where it belongs. In the bin. 😂

With the success we’ve had using the EXEDY Australia Ballistic Tuff in our own race car, it was the obvious choice. Less harshness, better drivability and a much happier gearbox!
Not being biased. But this is definitely the best clutch kit on the market for this platform. Cheers to Pro Speed Racing for always keeping one in stock for me😂😂😂

Next, we tackled the ageing oil supply and return lines on this early SME G-series turbo kit. We ditched the old barb fittings in favour of AN fittings, with new PTFE and stainless braided lines. Probably my favourite part of the job!

While everything was apart, we replaced the drive belt and finished things off with new hot side intercooler hoses from SME

The impressive part, this 86 is still running its original engine, gearbox and driveline, despite 277,000km and a turbo kit!

A perfect example of why preventative maintenance matters. Sometimes it’s not about making more power, it’s about making sure everything keeps working for years to come.

Here’s to another 277,000km!

Code brown moment I dug up from Day 1 of WTAC 😂

Having a driveshaft/CV joint let go in the very first session of your World Time Attack experience is definitely not how you want to start the weekend.

Thankfully, the mechanical diff saved our bacon, and a bit of experience driving an unstable car helped me catch it before things got properly ugly, all while doing 200+ km/h.

Safe to say, we were wide awake after that one. 😅

j24brz_ just beat our old SMSP NA lap record.

We held that time for two years, and with the car being turbo now, I always knew eventually someone would come along and take it.

What I didn’t expect was the message that came after.

I’d never really spoken to j24brz_ before. We’d only just followed each other, and I had no idea he’d been watching what I was doing with the car.

Then he tells me a lot of his build was inspired by my old NA setup. The Accusump, the data, the direction of the car, all the little things I used to post about.

That honestly means more to me than the record ever did.

If something I shared helped someone build their car, gave them confidence to take it to the track, or helped point them in the right direction, then that’s a pretty cool thing to hear.

I’ve always shared the parts, setup, data, mistakes, failures and the things that worked because I’ve always believed that knowledge should keep moving.

A lot of people have helped me over the years, and I’ve always wanted to do the same for the next person coming through.

There are two ways you can react when someone comes after something you’ve achieved.

You can get defensive. Tell them they’re not good enough, remind them what you’ve done and try to protect your little piece of territory.

Or you can shake their hand, congratulate them and be genuinely happy that they pushed it further.

I know which side of motorsport I want to be part of.

Records are supposed to be broken.

And if the person who finally broke ours did it with a little bit of inspiration from what I had shared along the way, then I couldn’t really ask for a better way for that chapter to end.

I’m proud of what we did with that NA car.

But I’m even prouder knowing it inspired someone else to go and do their own thing with it.

That’s why I post. No Secrets just sauce.

Everyone give j24brz_ a follow there’s a new king in town 🚀

Another angle of our WTAC lap with some data.

We did go slightly faster on practice day, but it’s been really interesting going back through the data and seeing exactly where we gained and lost time.

Crazy to think this car is already capable of a sub 1:40 with just a little more finesse from me behind the wheel.

And there’s still plenty left in the package. We’re currently running 1050cc injectors and a small .62 rear housing on the GTX, which gives us plenty of punch down low but starts to hold the car back up top.

A little more fuel capacity, a larger rear housing and some more development should make getting into the 1:39s that little bit easier.

And who knows what we could achieve with a stickier tyre underneath it .

Still a lot to learn on my end. But we got a good package to work with.

How cool is that!!!!

Our PB lap at WTAC was broadcast for pretty much the entire lap. To have one of the biggest laps I’ve driven caught from start to finish is something I’ll definitely remember for a long time.

One thing I also wanted to mention about the stickers on the car. They’re there because I wanted to show support back to the people and companies who supported me, helped this build come together and genuinely wished us well. I’m proud to have their names on the car.

EXEDY Australia for the Ballistic Tuff clutch. This thing has copped everything we’ve thrown at it and just keeps doing its job.

Shockworks for the suspension package and, more importantly, the trackside support and help getting this car working underneath me.

Denstoj Auto Centre for the rocker retainers and the level of after sales support. A great product from people who actually stand behind what they sell.

Motul @ DC Oceanic for keeping the car protected with their range of lubricants through some pretty serious track abuse.

Pro Speed Racing for supplying such a huge amount of the parts that went into this build and always helping us get what we needed.

Daniel Truong while the selection of colour for the sticker wasn’t ideal. Dan has been my go to anything WTAC related. From helping me get my s**t together, to being someone I can rely on if I’m in a pickle. With all the achievements Dan has accomplished this weekend. He always had time for me ❤️

And of course, Parramatta Vehicle Services .

Kaz, Tyler, Jez, Ryan and Tee. The effort you guys put into this car and into me as a driver has been massive. Tyler especially has spent countless hours helping me understand the car, build confidence and get the most out of the package.

This lap wasn’t just mine. It was for the whole team.

And lastly, Lils Roadside Bakery aka my wife 😂

Probably my biggest supporter of all. Holding down the business, looking after both kids and keeping everything moving while I disappear to the track and chase lap times.

At this rate we might have to paint the car pink next year and cover it in cupcakes 😂

None of this happens without the people behind it. Pretty bloody cool to have this lap captu
