Worked here for a few months now. Fitz, met your brother a while ago - make him build something with 6 cylinders will ya? ;)

Mag is definitely available in all states and territories of Australia so ask for it by name. Should be on the shelves today.

The BA ute on the cover doesn't have the Procharger any more either. Looking at it front on shows the inlets of two Turbonetics Y2K's! Insane! Just what the car needed - 2500hp worth of turbos!

Well currently in the build at our shop we have my GTR drag/street car, a datto 1000 ute with a a14 turbo (trying to talk them into 13b turbo), a 1600 with a sr20 turbo, a 1600 with a big hp fj20t, and another 1600 with a fj20t that is just getting a freshen up (trim, paint etc), and we are on the look out for a early ford rod... so i guess the GTR is a six but its not like the orange 1600 quality wise, so sorry Adrian but there might be a wait before a cool six is done haha I will be trying though!!!! ahah

Have you talked to paul about featuring any SC drag cars or anything? I know of a few cars here in canberra that would make good features if he wanted to push some later model stuff, like a full tube chassis registered r33!!??

GAH! I'd love to know how you can get a full tube chassis car registered?!?!?!

The future content of the mag is at the editor's discretion, not mine. In saying that, I'm not exactly here for my experience with blown, injected Hemi's, am I?

Yes I would also like to know that, as I argued with the owner when he told me called him a tosser etc among other things, then I talked to the engineer thats doing the and he said it won't be problem its all under control, I dont understand!!!?? I think its one of those situations where the less you know the better!!!

Well this thing is apparently approved for running 24"x 13" road rubber on the rear and 21"x7 on the front, its going to look pretty gay in my opinion, much like a tractor I have seen the rims and simply shook my head 24's on a skyline so gay!! his race rubber is 33"x 18" i believe!!!

I dont know if the stude will be registarable, not just becasue of the tire size, the thing hanging out the front could pose some probs also.

Ray Spence-Canberra Motor Works, only does ACT rego though so that could be an issue???

Carbon hat and 8/71 are long gone :P:P

Different, more 'below the hood' ideas are happening as we speak.

Talk to the engineers for me - Paul is reading this over my shoulder and drooling!

Yeah i'll mention it to him, the killer for any new projects are the new roll cage laws they have imposed in ACT, no bars in front of the driver, the r33 will get in becasue it is a project that was in the build and approved before the new laws. See for my gtr i will be putting all the roll cage in except the front hoops, getting it registered then welding them in and hope I never have to go over the inspection station!!!! I will definately ask him though, tell Paul it would be ACT rego though!

Did Paul buy Steves Procharger???? nah actually don't tell me, i'd rather it be a suprise!

      EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.

      People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
