Haha... I might have to come to the next UAS day with a set of slicks and see how far behind you I am in my car John!

Or are you coming out to OP for the Skylines Australia Day on Saturday the 29th of April?

Yes I might go to that to. More Skyline bait.

Not only does Paul let you up the inside of turn 1 but then he has to brake on the exit because you slow him up geeze :D

Yep I was waiting for someone to notice this and I had to make an early apex to overtake and then ran wide with shitty old slicks I had on that day and then hooked up and Goooooooone.

Most zeds are neglected and hence trouble but when sorted make a more reliable package than GTR's especially at the track wheather you believe it or not. Furthermore GTS-T much more reliable than GTR.

Well, Well Well where do I start.

Perhaps we start with the obvious differences.

John ---> Paul

1. Boo Hoo Hoo I have sh!ty slicks ---> Street tyres with 30,000 Km

2. 1000 hours of workshop time ----> change oil ever 5000km .5hrs

3. 1 gazillion $ in mods -----> $10K

4. Nothing standard ----> brakes, suspension internals drivetrain std

5. Spends weekdays in bits ---> drives to work every day with 2yr old boy in the back

6. track trim with a 300z shell ---> street trim wih tools in boot for when 300Z brakes down

7. 26psi boost ---> 10psi boost

8. Workshop car ---> familty car

The best thing about it is that not only am I your only conquest, but your proud of it, now thats gold.

By the way I saw a NA S13 auto kick your a$$ last time we went out.

Do you have a responce cashew boy or are you thursty for more?

An age old debate, worthy adversaries, rarely in combat are they. :(

ZED v's GTR, it's about time!!

Can't wait for this one.

Think i'll join the action with my cardigan wearing Zed and smack some liners. :)

"cashew boy" , now THAT is gold. LOL

LOL. that is GOLD Drunkan... when is it gonna be back on teh road?

That's it... ordering a set of slicks and coming to play... at least a set of semi's, will depend on what is left in the account after the build is finished. Either way, should be fun!

Yes Paul mostly right accept the boost only run 26si at the straight line thing with bumper bars. Circuit around 15psi. Also parts on this motor very cheap motor mostly factory stuff modified.

My clutch is single plate cost me about $400 MEGA Dollar twin plate R34. Stock 5 speed gear box slow changing compared to your 6 speed.

But yes not a real comparison as yours is road car which I mentioned on the Zed forum with same vid but thought to through the bait out there on this forum and it worked. Always makes discussion. Come rub my nose in it at the track with your GTR's with the bling stickers. Keep in mind I was beating GTR's with mostly full trim and stock engine and not many mods years ago. Not all zed owners where cadigans.

Duncan I love that shot as we were all lapping you and I started at the very back on this shot coming on the track, and by end of the straight I passed all and was behind you.

Well, well, well.

"We are here because Johny boy cant cut it as a man any more"

Quote The Simpsons "War of the Simpsons" Season 2 Disk 4 .

And just as homer cought General Sherman out at cat fish lake, Im going to catch a 300Z and eat him for breakfast!

Note the above quote is for hard core simpson fans only and now for everyone else.

John I think we should make a little side line bet here. Im thinking a case of corona for every .5 sec our cars better our previous fasted lap times at OP South. This removes the who spent a $Gazillion or who has a simple street car!

If your in let me know and its game on!

Well, well, well.

Game on. We have a sucker. I like Corona with Lime. I have the Lime tree. I think a handicap offereing for you to make fair if you like.

how about we all drink the coronas then see who has the fastest mouth, not the fastest car....

i heard john has ordered the plates FTD ZED in anticipation of this years sprints. is that true john?

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
