Default 29-11-09 Sepang open trackday

So here is some pics....


one of the z club member track weapon.



good weather, good traffic, not too many cars so can enjoy a bit more



going in







Soon I post the vids of my bro lapping the sepang & spun out at turn 9 while going aggresively to join scooby.....(too bad I dont have a good camera mounting & when my turn,I was driving alone without camera man.... )

BTW,the outing was less than before,around 60-70 cars & most of them not really going for full time.Less traffic in the track,good weather & also a good time to try michelin Good year Eagle F1 Asymmetric over previous Potenza.

It was good all rounder,the car has been quite hard to drift or sliding now except when it pushed really hard(the tyres has been almost 2 month old) or clutch kick around the bend.

But the bad thing is the standard brake has reduced the fun & track time.Only managed for 6-8 laps before going for rest due to extremely less bite feeling on the brake,not to mention the brake pedal became quite "soft" to be kicked in.

Oh yes,the clutch pedal also feeling less responsive & gear lever having probs when I going for final outing.It feel like hard to downshifting,not to mention the clutch pedal also feel hard to depress.

Luckily after stopped for awhile for cool-down session,the car feels good again for spirited driving when going back home.

Is there any good brake caliper & disc for Z?I never mod the Z,so just need some advise here.

& what is good choice for performance clutch kit?I dont want something that too agressive & too hard to press,but atleast good for 10-16 laps.

Sorry for asking since I always going for bike trackday,& my standard brake & clutch system doing well for 10-16 laps without stopping.So I want to enjoy the Z as much as I do with the bike.

nice track you guys got out there. thats the international speedway you got out there if im not mistaken?

there are many good brake setups as well as clutch/flywheel setup for the Z. check the specific forum sections on here and ask around for feedback on specific criteria you're looking for in your mods.

Thanks for the advise man.
I always love the stock OEM parts for my car,but all standard part cant take too much torture when driving like mad!

BTW,here is the pics taking by nearby photographers when my bro was successfully leaving track-prep integra & other Honda to close the gap between group of scooby(all 3-4 Impreza was really fast....: )





......Until the car was spinning in turn 9.....almost close but pushing too much this time. Lucky it not ended up hitting the wall.....

That'd be awesome to have your car on a real F1 track!
