it's auto, but I've got everything you need to change it to manual.

Buy my VL funz $900

Brad at Boost Automotive will prolly have everything you want and tell you what you need to do also. http://www.boostautomotive.com.au He's in Launceston.

ooOOooooh, only one spot left for that rally thing. If I wasn't doing sprints I'd totally hit that up.

Me too.

yeah it's the 30th looks like you miss out.

that old chest nut.

ooooooh yeah. That part of the drive way is a troll, I might drop some gravel there or something.

You're all jelly of my 60

Hey Guys, I'm thinking, in two months time at the end of October, when I was thinking we should have out next track day, there is a super sprint event on at baskerville that weekend! Maybe we should all just attend that instead! Same principal as a SAU Track day though, just better organised, official timing, first aid, rescue vehicle, the canteen will be open, all that fun stuff! Plus we'll be helping out all the motorsport clubs in tassie by attending! I reckon it'll be around the same price, maybe a smidgen more but it'd be worth it! For you who don't know super sprints events are like this Qualifying at the start of the day so you're put with other cars of similar pace. four cars on the track at once 3-4 hot laps at a time laps are timed at the end of the day, the driver with the best time is the winner So yeah, it's pretty much Time Attack! We should all get in on this; it's going to be a blast! Looking at the supp regs from the one earlier in the year, it's $95 to enter, CAMS licence also is required and available on the day. (Around $110) You need a little bit more done to your car though but you've got 2 months to get it sorted! You'll need on your car: - seat belts (duh) - 900g or larger, Fire Extinguisher mounted on a metal bracket. (~$45 from Safety & Fire Equipment Services in Moonah for us southerners) - Sticky tape or clear contact over glass head lights. - Tail shaft strap or loop (NOT REQUIRED for road registered cars) - Secondary Bonnet restraint. (this is how I did mine, an old belt or dog chain works well too) - Blue triangle with 150mm sides (electrical tape is fine, or Revolution race gear has them for $2) - hub caps and removable wheel centers taken off. - All removable objects including jacks, spare wheels, floor mats etc. must be removed from the vehicle cabin, glove compartment, console and boot - Tyre must be in good condition, Slicks are allowed. NO RETREADS - Catch can for vent to amtosphere breathers (rocker covers and radiator) So yeah, you've got a while to get it all sorted! So there are no excuses I hope I've covered everything, If you've got something to add or have a question post up here or send me a PM

I've got some pretty spanked 17" Semis if that'll help

yeah, that's Veeto's car. I forgot my Camera so I didn't get any pics at all Got a bit of gopro footage though.

She was mostly unimpressed because it was a R32, not a 33

Very interesting, yeah are you coming to help us remove an engine? We'll need an engine crane too if you've got one handy.

Dibs on those cam covers, I'll PM you in about 10 hours

http://www.facebook....6&type=1&ref=nf Also; Justin.... My GF was less than impressed with your driving style leaving my abode.... tsk tsk tsk.

I've got a S1 wing and a S2 wing if you want to restore it to it's former GTS-t glory. and a type-m front.

That's enough out of you two. My epiphany was posted not for your benift, but perhaps someone else might read it. Someone that's not too clued into RB oil behavior. So when someone says "do a search" this thread might come up...

Yeah well, that almost a perfect circle when you have it like that isn't it?

I've got a 25 bottom end, suit rebuild. Also got a 30 bottom end...

Hey Jack, You can get a CAMS licence on the day, I can't remember how much it is exactly but I think it's like $110. Your licence lasts for a year from the day you pay for it so you don't need to worry about buying it at the right time to get your years worth. Hope that helps.

when you paste in youtube links you've got to get rid of everything past the & as well as the & Then it'll auto embed fine Cool video though Skyline dominating as usual

Yeah, what you're saying sits in close correlation with the research I've been doing too. Except for the enlargening of the oil returns, the jist that I got was that was an optional extra that you could do if you felt like it but a lot of people don't bother. Also the mines baffles aren't made to stop the head flooding problem, they're made to stop oil coming out when you're sloshing it around through the bends and other high g forces. I've got a n1 pump with a nitto collar, not a nitto pump. But yeah, waaaaaay too much oil pressure at the moment, over 100psi, I'll need to drop it down to around 80psi I reckon. the rule of thumb is 10psi for every 1000rpm you want to run and I reckon I'll wind it up to 8200rpm and increase the preload on the stock valve springs to stop the valves floating. I'm hitting the limiter in 3rd about half way up the hill now which is a little annoying, I don't really want to pull 4th either because it just bogs down and doesn't go much faster, I suppose not much faster is better than no faster in 3rd though... WTB Hollenger 6 speed anyone want to donate one? I reckon new sump will be on the cards too before I start TSS with the breathers going back to the sump will be good, because my VCT and Turbo oil return share the only hole on the block atm because it's a NA block with no Turbo return tapped in. Oh well, we'll see what happens after this weekend. GT Garage are being really cool and helping out with the development of my car too and giving lots of useful advice and helpful support.

f**k you and your hair and your car and your favourite colour! This thread is now a rageathon about oil coming out of breathers. Just ordered my mines baffles and oil restricters! Testing the baffles this weekend to see what that fixes. I'm going to go and agree with Jangles though and mines baffles plus 26 cam covers will only increase my engine's ability to store oil in the head. 26 covers with baffles are just treating a symptom, not the cause. But they will help with keeping oil in there when giving it the beans up the hill. Restricters will keep the oil out of the head and keep it in the bottom end hopefully curing my oil surge issues. No one seems to know what oil restricters went in there, Oh well, you get that on the big jobs.

Hey Alex, These are the pads Justin and I were yarning about on the day http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/301207-qfm-high-performance-brake-pads-including-comp-9/ Good gear, I'm getting those after I wear out my current pads.
