    i have a feeling i will order a 2 more sets of these this year as they are not super expensive for a full forged race rim.

    finally got the oil feel fitting that goes into the turbo been chasing this one fitting for like........... forever

    new toys

    new injectors

    a09e62a2.jpg

    still got so far to go but it is slowley getting there.

    i have been looking at those water injection kits there not that steep either so i think that might be on the cards soon, my work is taking me out to Mackay in 3 weeks so progress will be slowing down on this thing unfortunatly but when i get back in a few months i should be able to do the sm4 cdi tune stock box over haul all in one hit.

    then its running then i will focus on the suspension getting that all sorted then i will build the motor after i put it in superlap so still got a fair way to go yet but it is all slowly happening.

  3. A Big MASSIVE thanks to:

    just a massive cheers to every one who cam today, the one who put the cars on the rollers and the ones who just came down to watch.

    it was a very interesting day with it starting out a bit slow but as every 5 or 10 carzs left another 5 or 10 would show up, every thing ran so smooth and had such a vast array of cars there from old school falcons and plymoths to massive hp skylines and some serious clubbys pulling big grunt!

    it did ebd up turning into a smaller meet but i think it was better as every one was super social and every one was chatting with every despite having 2 completely different tastes in car styling.

    so a big shout out to every one as this day would have been nothing if it was not for all the compaines and the individuals as its you guys that make these days happen and make these days GREAT days!

    BUILT TO ORDER NOW GETTING INVOLVED AND WE ALL KNOW WHO THEY ARE :P

    there is looking like there will be a strong turn out guys only 1 space left on the dyno who is interested in running?

  6. hey mate i was teaching with driving sports out at EC for drift they have days running from only a few hundred dollars and that is with all cars tyres and fuel supplied which is a great place to learn and is quite cheap when you work out what the cars cost to set up maintain and have running.

    if you want to give it a go pm me and i can get you some infomation sent out about the training day, drift is not a cheap sport, it is quite cost effective if you are going the wet pan as you dont wear anything out but if you go in the dry tyres can add up quite quickly.

    last time i was on the dry penut i did 10 tyres in my r 33 in 4 hours and around 12 tyres on the big track over the course of a few hours (depends what tyres you run as well).

    there are many good drift schools that you can go to and Driving Sports is just one if this intrest you please pm me for more details.

  7. stock cams will do 450rwhp wouldnt ever use that much grunt really in a track car, plus you would try to retain vct at any cost possible as it is a very good thing to have while tuning.

    very clean car mate did you have a dyno sheet from the engine set up on page 1?

    i was also supprised at the weight of the doors as well i have mine off at the moments and there feels like enough metal to make a charade out of them.

    how much weight do you think you saved by stripping the wiring harnes out of curiosity?

  8. MORE COMPANIES GETTING INVOLVED:)

    dynomeetw.jpg

    so far the list is looking like this.

    we have a good list going so far everything from 500KW drift cars

    to gt3rs porches 500+ bhp clubbys and the list goes on i will get a full list up by the end of monday.

    there is only around 3 places left so if you have a car or a mates has one please be quick to pm me and reserve your spot.

  9. Yea it is rwd dyno unfortunately we have one Gtr owner pulling the fuse and front shafts to run on the day, the next event will be on a awd dyno.

    This event is open to any one regardless of your power, this should be a fun day for every one.

    any questions please pm me and if you are a business wanting to show off a few of your cars and products please pm me for details

  12. key is power switch is for the reds and then start button same 3 stages of your normal key barrel, yea i never got over switches my tow truck has about 10 of them and play with them all day never gets boring:)

    i found the car ran cooler in the engine bay but i never did back to baqck when i did mine i will next time i down at the track mine goes from infront of my front to the back of my gear box but i have been worried to finnish it due to heat.

    i will get some pics of it and the mounts up tomorrow bed now :P

  13. yea cheers man, one of the main reasons the plenum was done in 2 stages is ease of use, if you need to work on it you can take it off and if you bend the car you can salvage more of it as all the runners and plennum are individual pieces.

    dads a mechanic and does some fabricating for his own car and some stuff for others but after years and years you just start to accumulate material allot of it you dont even remember having.

    the pedal box was made and never picked up so that was just luck, i think i am very lucky to have the mill lathe and welders and stuff there for me to use and allot of stuff you make it is just things you come up with and use whats around to keep costs down and for me most of the time that is scraps off other jobs or crap from the bin, the only real material i paid for was for the diffuser.

    i have been looking at the diffusser and have been contemplating on extending all the mounting points and dropping it closer to the ground for more effect but im not sure weather it will be more hassel then use and i am a bit precerious about what affect it will have on my gear box temps, i have seen some raises of around 60deg in the gear box temp due to the diffusers.

  14. got rid of the key and barrel today made a new push button set up and orderd a few more bits and pieces.

    13 months of not running i am dieing to get it going now!!!!

  15. so a fair bit of work has happened since my last post my parts list has slowly grown and my progress list has even moved......my car has even moved for the first time in months.............thats just like ...magic.....that thing normally never moves.

    any way to this is where i am at.

    6ddcf6f4.jpg

    128708234980095570.jpg

    so me and my old man started working on the intake manifold as my choice of turbo ment that just about any thing stock was not going to work.

    so we went through the rubbish bins to fiind what we had around to use and we found some billet at the bottom of the bin so we used that to make up the runner blocks.

    77c808a8.jpg

    this was the blank i had just fiinished milling all the holes now ready to do the port holes.

    528b2d0c.jpg

    milling the ports out praying i dont stuff it as there was no more billet left :S

    then the injector bosses had to be done so after doing some more maths it was back to the mill!

    98fb1355.jpg

    gave them a bit of a clean up put the water cooling ports in the back of them and they turned out like this.

    01fd8904.jpg

    28cd3811.jpg

    2c69947a.jpg

    its around 4 and a bit hours of mill time per block to get them to this point, next was the runners so we had to neck down one end to get it onto the ports shape that we had.

    a2b7fcd6.jpg

    6750b771.jpg

    then it was time to start on the plenum, normally we would of made the runners but we wanted them to be light and thin so they were spun up and at $18 a runner allot cheaper.

    2126b4dd.jpg

    look how dead flat those trumpets are tongue.gif

    d595d306.jpg

    and now fitted to the runners

    7f81327b.jpg

    446ffa6f.jpg

    the brake booster and clutch master have been removed to fit in this manifold so i am going to a floor mounted pedal box now, there was one of these sitting on the shelf up stairs that dad had made a while ago so i thought i would relocate it to my car and hope he says nothing

    5676a4a2.jpg

    i will now be runnign twin tilton masters from inside that car which meens now i have to extend all the brake lines, but i am going to try and retain the abs unit as it is quite nice to drive with and will save tyres in a lock up.

    starting to get the gauge mounts in now

    cbfa3947.jpg

    the seat will be going a fair way back my shoulder is around the b piller now so all new rails will have to be made to suit and the car will have to be built around my seating position now.

    thats about where i am up to at the moments i have some new goodies on order just waiting for post to hurry up.

  16. ======================================================================================================================================

    so it's been quite a while since i have posted anything about my nugget and i have started to do some work to it so i though i would post up a bit about what i have been doing.

    so over christmas i took it down to the bat cave and started the suspension meassure to see what is really going on down there.

    few pics from the meassure.

    IMG_0063-1.jpg

    IMG_0055.jpg

    IMG_0052.jpg

    IMG_0056.jpg

    IMG_0071-1.jpg

    so it was very interesting looking at all the measurments and what was quite surprising was that there was pretty much no bump steer out the factory and they ran 10% anti dive and 10% anti squat as well, i did learn allot about the faults in controll arm design in the cars though but that is a easy fix with some new controll arms that i will make whn i get time, the other thing is the cast uprights are so damb heavy i have been contemplating making them out of 2mm sheet like the formula 5000 uprights or billet but i will do that when i get to it first is getting this nugget running.

    i am over having to all ways go to a different work shop to do my wheel alignments so i decided to make some W/A bars so i can do one any where.

    IMG_0096-1.jpg

    started with the mounting bars

    IMG_0104-1.jpg

    then the upper mounting bars

    IMG_0102-1.jpg

    made the cuplings to hold the rod.

    IMG_0108-1.jpg

    finished product, pretty happy with them as they where made with scrap from the bin.

    IMG_0110-1.jpg

    shiney billet under drive pulley 15% under drive for the new motor. (for sale $100 never fitted)

    and then it was about here i decided to just go a bit more serious with it so i have now de registered the car as it is just to hard other wise and i dont want the police hassals.

    and this is 1 reason why,

    garret 35/40 .63

    c47422ff.jpg

    2cf7e0f5.jpg

    another little suprise, 60mm love, might go to a 38mm progate yet not sure see what happens.

    ceb0ee1a.jpg

    though i would practise my tig skills on my actual job and not a test plate smile.gif its been a few years since i have used the tig last but all in time.

    8f55eee0.jpg

    all new earl speed flow fitting for the turbo and silver soldered some fittings to the oil lines to make l;ife easy for me.

    the rb series of engines are lazy nuggets of engines so i have been looking at ways to try and bring it to life under the 5000 rpm mark, so with some help from my dad i think this will be the new intake set up with some nice runners and plenum action going on, 8516f36c.jpg

    i would love to do what the hks gtr did and just mill half the head off and make a strait port head but time and money is a small isue there as i have neither currently.

    am about to order some CP pistons and Cirillo rods sm4 and cdi so i am hoping by next year it is running and finished, will post up some more pics as i do some more work to it.

    oh and i have made a new 3" stainless dump as the old one looked like a 3year old on a sugar high weilding a stick welder had made it, pics soon. ,,
