Then back 2 melb! :D

Its always my favorite road trip of the year! Very Recommended! :)

Nope :)

But thanks for starting this thread, It reminded me that I haven't organised my media pass yet.... Just did it then!! :)

No probs hun! :) Just Not happy that you rejected me from the launch! :)

It not so much a bogan fest anymore! I like it coz different ppl from all walks of life & backgrounds, from all over australia come together coz we love cars & some come for the perve! But its all good! 1 of the best 24 hours of my life was in Canberra for the nats 2004! But thats a story for another day kiddies! :wub:

been working there for the last 5 years in the dyno cells

not finalised if im goin this year may though

crazy car festival eats any car show in vic

so much of everything in one place

i have over the last few years seen the migration of v8s with forced induction take off

but jap stuff is still in the big hp area as well as insane naturally aspirated 8s

great car show to go to but yes there are pissed bogans by about 4 oclock that demand burnouts in any car that is still game to cut laps around

Should be going up this time around. Yes,its a traditional Holden/Ford event but a GTR won the 6 cylinder class last year beating my best mate by 10hp.

He should be ready within a month to try and win his class on the dyno. In of all things a Holden(Isuzu) rodeo.

    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
