The general talk is about 400-420hp. In qualifying they wound 450hp out of them...how knows how accurate that is. The Sierras were said to ahve up to 600hp with the wick turned up.

When they last had the BIG historical day ( at E/Creek ), I'm pretty sure I saw one out there. <_<

450 hp i believe

eastern creek in march i believe terry and rod will be making an appearance

keep an eye out for me or 31gun in the pits!

I'll most likely be out there with Hooks helping Terry with the car so I'll see you there too :) If any of you forum guys come out, drop in and say Hi. Always good to see a couple of Skyline supporters in amoungst the Holden masses. :D

well whenever we race with the HSRCA terry is usually there. I dunno where you've been hiding steve but he's been running the skyline (s) at EC and OP for quite some time in the Historic Touring Car rounds there. Rod Markland is also at most meets in his 31.

for dates, check out the HSRCA website.

Actually, no I don't. Hooks ( 31GUN ) usually calls me a week or 2 out to remind me and that's when I lock it in my woefull memory :)

Hooks is going to post up the dates as soon as he confirms them with Terry.

Cancel all that above. Thanks Richard :)

Everyone try to get out there and watch the historicals race. It's what REAL race cars should look and sound like !!!! Not like that Ford vs. Holden crap nowdays :D

we have a Alfa GTV 1750 (now two litre though). Spencer Rice drives the car mostly, and i do too sometimes. It's his car that we just finished mid way through last year. We did the last EC round last year, and the Wakefield round (i drove it there), and Spencer just did the PI round (i was unable to go). it's a very quick little car. an absolute animal of a thing. all built by spencer and help from me. engine built in melbourne.

Pic attached. that was at EC. The car actually looks better now, as momenty after that pic was taken a spanker in a pajero run into it!! Can you believe it? got smashed up in the carpark of our debut meet for the car... Still it is now back bigger and better. and quicker lol.

yeah, like FAT32 says, it's great racing. having now driven the above car with the boys in Group NC i can tell you they aint playing no games... haha very much take no prisoners!

haha, 42s are weak. ours are now 55mm bore.... lol. it's a farking weapon of a thing i tell you. nothing like driving it. such a tight, light car with well over 200hp, and it's such a crisp responsive engine. just awesome, it's pretty taily though and has given me a few brown underwear moments. most notable of which was losing it in a big way (and thinking i could catch it) coming on to the back straight at wakefield, flat out in 4th and put it around... and half way across the infield lol. not a good look.

yeah, please come and say hi, we are easy to spot as we will be wearing all our sponsors gear (the gulf stuff).

i had 280rwkw at oran park and the gibson hr31 pulled about 2 car length on me down the straight

so i would say about that seeing as my car is about 300kgs heavier

    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
