if his car is hard tuned....does that make mine a soft cock? Surely im right if things are all back to front these days.

Hey shane...dont go with your biased few on hard tuned gtr's and gtst's....i reckon they do compare and i think ours is proof of that...when its got its eye of the tiger going :P haha.

urs is a stripped out track car biatch, can we compare urs against, say giants? :huh:

P.S can i "borrow" ur dry sump setup? :happy:

if you want...on the national giants only a sec quicker and 2 on sprint...but next time we hit the track...we should be just as quick if not quicker....but i admit giants car is a very well setup beast.

No...the dry sump is MINE! Get your own. I can show you how to fit it up good and proper.

You will love the new 26/30's soon to be built...sporting t04z and a few other bits.

And the new gearset going into the box oh and autronic.

Series II,

You belong on boostcruising.com :)

Your replie's hurt my brain everytime i read them, and u ramble on about rubbish in ur posts.

Also, a 'hard tuned' gtst just doesnt compare to a 'hard tuned' gtr :laugh:

My GTST would eat most hard tuned GTR's. I'm running low 7's now.....on street tyres.

If you tastefully modify a GTSt for a track purpose instead of chasing XXXrwkw, you should be fine and have a ball. Hell, Jason has been doing it for years and has been quicker than most...

Here here. Skylines are pretty tough things, if you keep them very well maintained spend some dollars on suspension, brakes and cooling rather than chasing those big rwkw that you can't use on the street anyway, you can have fun thrashing around the track, down the quarter and at the skidpan without fear. I have only had a skyline fail me once and that was after picking it up from getting a full respray, for some reason the AFM decided to pack it in. . . . nothing really. I have done numerous trackdays at QR and Darlington Park, plenty of runs at willowbank and a few days on the skidpan and LVMA at Mt Cotton and soon Gympie, and have never had a problem.

Don't get me wrong I would love some big hp, then I could have some real fun I am sure, but then I am sure I would spend a lot more time off the road too as more hp means more stress on the engine and drivetrain and an inevitable failure. If you love driving you skyline then will be addicted after only one lap! Its great fun :happy: I highly recommend giving it a go.

And correction. . . . I am slow. . . .

I'm saving up for a parachute b4 I even attempt to hit the drag strip

It costs too much for me to go to Willowbank anyway....coz my traction level is so high it actually reverse rotates the earth on it's axis which turns back time. This is how I am able to run such quick times. The only downfall is that due to my high levels of traction, I tear up the bitumen and this has to replaced at my expense. If only I could find another way...hmmm.

Hey Andy, how did the new clutch go on that last 2 you pulled...she still running sweet. You know it's an NPC rebuild so Shane might get jealous that it didn't explode, causing your car to be written off in the process.

    • It could be in the tune but in both cases it couldn't be completely solved or eliminated by some of the best tuners in victoria so I'm DOUBTFUL that it's in the tune or ECU but stranger things have happened of course. I've pondered that theory too but is there any theories that thinner and smaller ports overall would cause a turbo to spike? I would've thought it would just restrict it in general if it was small enough to make a difference. I wouldn't expect it to make a different at what is essentially sub 300kw at 4000rpm anyway. I think the next step is going to have to be the 6psi spring to rule out the idea that the gate is cracking open far too wide initially. At least that is the cheapest (free) thing to check initially.
    • I'm thinking it is skinny NA Neo port sizing and cams. Somehow.
    • -5鈥檚 did it. 8474 did it. Not hot side related. ECU related? 馃え馃お
    • Above you mentioned you only need to sand primer if there's an issue with it but with fillers it says the surface needs to be sanded to X grit beforehand. Does that sorta contradict that point as the primer hasn't been sanded yet? At the same time if I sand the primer, there's a good chance I'll expose the bare metal and I'm just chasing my tail at that point. Or I'll just use a sand sponge instead of sandpaper, it seems to be far finer in terms of abrasiveness as opposed to sandpaper. From what I understand, filler is like primer and needs scratches from the sandpaper to help it adhere to the panel. I realised the way I'm doing things is actually a bit counter productive as there's a chance after I put filler I will need to put epoxy primer again as opposed to putting the filler first and potentially no primer if I don't go to bare metal. Will keep this in my mind for the rest of my repairs.
    • Not without making up a new screamer pipe from scatch I don't think based upon the angles of the current return. Backpressure shouldn't be an issue though as the straight gate isn't affected by backpressure in the same way that a poppet valve is, and on top of that the exhast system is 4" all the way through so there should be minimal pressure if any to begin with.
