You are as bad as me :rofl: There is no way you can remotely say that car is stock. It has custom springs on Teins, adjustable arms/bushes and swaybars. It has 2 piece rotors, has Pfc and aftermarket turbos. Its as liek callign your car std, only you have a built engine and he trades that for suspension.

LOL...crazy Victorians, i think all the BS comign from my posts is polluting your mind... If his GTR is stock then my car is stock as well, as he has more mods then me :D

...Baron, so...how many baby barons will be running around come easter?

My car is stock :D

the vic GTR may be "standard" but dont forget daves engine has done more kms that I've done japanese race queens. (ie. a lot)... lol 200,000 odd if I remember rightly.

i was on some old dunlop 240-625-17 that i bought for 50 buck each. :)

i seriusly had a ball. the best bit was where i was behind the black gtr with a single. it was sooo cool to see to angry tough looking 32's menacing there way through the field. i just didnt have enough power on the straight. :sick:

the funny thing is im not a great driver and have alot to learn (i still need to get my cams licence lol) and my fastest lap was the second session i was running in on the second lap still warming up the tyres, just taking it relativly easy and taking the lines properly i think. not just nailing it everywherre and driving like its stolen lol.

anyway it was a great time and it was good to see all you out there

and special thanks to steve and sean and norm for pulling together and doing some full sik overnight parts :cheers: .

oh and just for you guys curiouse of how to make an old 26 live on the track:

i needed 2.2 litres extra oil in the sump to get rid of the oil surge i was getting.. (thank f**k for a good quick reponce oil pressure guage :P)

NSW FTW

PS. with the slicks to run at a hot 30psi cold pressues are around 17-18psi :)

oh and anna :P for putting up with the 25kph speed we did on the freeway for 80 odd kms after my cdi dropped 2 channels and was running on 2 cylinders.

and liz and bunts for keeping us company while i rent rank with a can of wd40 at the servo in a mad atempt to fix it lol.

You do know the V35's oil patch on the braking point on the back straight caused major dramas?

I came off hard there and scratched a rim, the WRX went into the Marshalls booth, the Clio almost hit the wall and the MX-5 and EVO slid into pitt lane!!!

All in a row, like dominos!!!

My GT-R still isn't sorted, so laggy but was doing 1.11's.

It wasnt quite in a row! The WRX was after me and I managed to avoid the carnage,I think I took note of the fact that cars were spearing off everywhere and she didnt! (Either that or I was so far off the racing line I never hit the oil lol)

the hicas is working as it should, it's just I don't like the feel of it anymore, it's unsettling, I couldn't tell if I was loosing traction or the Hicas kicking in, but I managed and it was fun nonetheless.........U SHOULD'VE ALL BEEN THERE, it was FUN FUN FUN!!!!!!!!!!!

Who cares if it is HICAS or lack of traction just keep it planted :D

(PS seriously dissapointed by the lack of skids onto the straight people :nyaanyaa: )

oh and anna :dry: for putting up with the 25kph speed we did on the freeway for 80 odd kms after my cdi dropped 2 channels and was running on 2 cylinders.

and liz and bunts for keeping us company while i rent rank with a can of wd40 at the servo in a mad atempt to fix it lol.

:sleep:

I had a great day thanks to all involved!

I managed to run a 1:18 in my Vic style 'stock" R32GTST, I didnt really get the track till the last session wich is a shame but I will be making the trek again sometime soon

I was in the grey R32 GT-R with plates "RB26" and I also brought my white EVO with plates "TME" which I let all my mates drive. Anyways. Cyas around! :)

Ooo000o0o0o that was YOU! What a beautiful pair you have :nyaanyaa:

awesome day! i managed a personal best for wakefield of 1:12.1 :D

Hooray! You go boyfriend!

Alcoholics!!! The lot of ya! :dry:

Sucks I wasnt there. :) Stupid work..

Who spun out the most? :sleep:

Yeh that’s right… I had 3 bottles of vodka you could have helped me polish off!

Oh Yea.. Thanks to Liz & James (from the vic club) For ringing me in the middle of the night. Thanks Assholes

That was hilAAAAAAArious

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
