Hey boys, going to pick up my rims today and placing an order for tyres. Just wondering who you would trust with your rims to get fitted, i'm going for a stretched look on 20's and i really don't feel like picking them up with dents or marks or anything on my brand spankers. Thanks

Pretty tough R32 GTR just came past my work, was sort of a gun metal grey/matte black in colour. Had a GTR front bar and the turbo sounded so good. Heard it take off from up the road and come past, nearly jizzed.

So many tunes to do this week for Matsuri...! Who's going? Should be a good day.

If you aren't aware of the drift track just outside of mackay (About 50 mins away) - http://www.facebook.com/mackaydrift

Huge drift meet This saturday and sunday (22nd and 23rd).

Yeah 8sec pass is in the bag, which is pretty freaking awesome, ran a time of 8.97 @150mph and a 1.35 sec 60ft

. Believe it or not but this puts us 0.02 sec off Theo's world record for fastest H-pattern street tyred GTR, only a bee's dick in it. The car was re-dynoed at Godzilla Motorsport before the Jambo making 900rwhp on 30psi and the gear vs speed was setup so in 4th gear it was running approx 33psi. Had the car weighed as well and came in at 1440kg with half tank of fuel, bit heavy but has all steel panels still.

On the next run the boost was pumped up to approx 35-36psi which was probably close to 1000rwhp and launched the car, it was 3mph up by half track then 3rd gear decided to let go :( $$$$ oh well no world record this year. But hoping to smash it to bits once the gearbox is rebuilt. Can only get faster from now on considering there is approx 100kg + we can loose and it still has more power in the engine. Looking forward to next years Jambo f**k yeah.

f**k yeah

Was it an OS Giken gear set, seem to remember something like that. Where to from there?

Must be slightly disappointing. So close to the record its redicuolous lol. But I guess at that power/speed it doesn't take much.

Nah it was PPG Dogbox strongest box on the market but not Hipo GTR proof, where to from here probably strip the gearbox and see how much damage has been done it will be cheaper to rebuild it rather change setup then have another crack at the record.

That's right. I knew it was one of the top ones (would have to be lol)

Hopefully its not to bad then. Won't be real fun if your rebuilding gearboxes after every few runs

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
