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

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
