Their was a quick r33 GTR there which sounded nuts.

Dont know any results.

if anyone saw the events at broadwater carpark and got photos of either the purple or silver 33 gtr's, let me know....i'd love to see them.

Ah Russ The Brakes! (It has a whole new meaning now).

Sorry to hear mate and I hope you get it all sorted out ok. Although maybe if it's only half fixed by September that won't be a bad thing. Infact Duncan - how much do I owe you to not give Russ a controller before Oct? lol

Well since we've now already won our 58-0 bet against thise 2 hacks by default is there anyone else out there up for the challenge for Dutton Vic??

Looks an awesome layout this year with 2 days at DECA and now Sandown thrown into the mix. Should be a much better GT-R event now.

dont get to cocky or i may have to bring out the new toy early!! :laughing-smiley-014:

The for sale add has been in my favourites folder for ages...mylotto numbers just didnt come up. :3some:

The only thing that needs to be changed is that front bar...then your in business.... :laugh:

You going to run it as is, or plans to dump the single for some smaller twins ???? Be good to see how it goes compared to the R32

If your lookign for a co-driver who will bve sure to bin it far worse then that then im your man :whistling:

I heard you were building an EVO 9 (which I was most disappointed to hear) but unless you are putting an RB engine into an EVO then I take it those rumours are false.

So which car are you bringing to Vic (I take it you are coming to Vic yeah?)

HEY ROY

Our thoughts exactly front bar has been removed & getting a new lower lip, also getting rid of the two tone

lower side skirts. not sure how it will go against the r32 as far as drivability should be interesting.

the engine in it will be only good for drags i think, we are dynoing it up and then may sell either the whole engine or build a twin set up for it, I HATE LAG!! main reason we bought it was it was to good a deal to pass up.

Snowy the evo is my wifes car, i may drive it sometimes, i think they are a great car.

but when you get out of a great supercar like a modded gtr everything else feels a bit ordinary and boring as you guys would know. :)

cheers russ

LOL - I was going to say that this isn't exactly motokhana friendly!

The R32 I trust will be ready for Vic though Russ? Changing the Sunday to Sandown has really made Vic a GT-R event as Sandown is a drag strip like QR. My new engine finally goes back in tonight so hopefully by the weekend we'll know how ready we'll be for you this year.

And its the older style bush bearing T51, not the latest ball bearing T51. So the OS would want to have close ratios...but who cars. The car is absolute horn and the noise of the thing at full song would make children at the playground in the next suburb cry :)

Haha - so what you are saying is that it won't pass the 90dB limit het Bris??

Speaking of - Russ did they actually check anyone this year for dB as they have been harping on it in all their emails etc.

NAH they havent checked any noise limits to either event so far.

there is only a slim chance they we can go to VIC which is a shame.

cheers russ

apparently that turbo has been zanitani tuned, not sure but was told its either titanium shaft or impellor or both, maybe you could shed some light Roy??

The Zeni Tani thing is all i know, i thought it was a Titanium turbine...i only know what i have found on the for sale adverts in overseas websites/publications and what the original owner posted on SDU years ago. Ill have a hunt around SDU tonight and see what i can see

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
