The two quickest GTR's head to head......its gonna be "wiked bro"

http://performancecar.co.nz/allstar/allstar.php

bit ordinary that andre simon will be driving the HKS car. some guy with no experience in that car against a guy whos ran his car a thousand times and is familar how it behaves.

that would be like bringing john forces funny car over here and me racing ben bray out at the 1/8th mile track at dubbo.

any who, it will still be interesting to see what goes down.

when are you racing again?

How do you know that Andre has not been in Japan doing private testing with HKS for the past month. He is also the worlds fastest EVO pilot and knows how to pedal a car. HKS do not enter into this unprepared, im sure they are not going to spend all that money getting the car here to lose. Its been that long since Kawasaki was at the wheel of that car, and the fact that Andre has fresh track experience, is familiar with conditions and how to read the track and weather, makes the decision to run him a smart move in my books.

Im sure he will perform much better than you in John Force's funny car. :wub:

Did i mention that us 4WD boys and girls actually know how to change gears too? :wub:

Ill be racing again soon ..... i hope.

Andre will be testing the car in NZ in early Feb.

If you visit the www.lid.co.nz website early in February and click on their webcam, you may just get a sneak preview of Andre in private testing with the car

thats a shame, but understandable. cost vs reward type decision.

would have been an awesome show though. hopefully some one will step upto the plate and make it a battle again. how many years has reece worked his assss of to get where he is now. would be a shame to see him not progress any further with it due to lack of competition. sub 7.5 would be awesome, hopefully one day it will happen.

i ear whispers in the sport compact world he may be returning this year for jamboree to see if he can go faster.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
