hi Roy, it was a good buy just wish it was on the track, cant wait to get it going(should be in July)

the cylinderhead for it is a work of art (huge cam and good port work for big revs and a dry sump), and the brakes are crazy (carbon fibre rotors of a jaguar lemans car)

the seat isnt for sale yet but it may when we get the car going , if we sell it i'll let ya know.

cheers russ

Congrats on your times John.

As you know i ran the S15 on Friday. It was my first run in 4 1/2 months with a different gearbox and diff ratio. I have taken you advice onboard regarding the camber on my rear wheels. thanks for that. Car was suffering from a lot of understeer all day.

Anyway I did alright in practice with few a 1.08.7's which I throught was OK for the conditions.

Choked in the 1 lap sprint. :P

hi mate

thats a very nice sx of yours and bloody fast too!!

cheers russ

and hey guys are any of you coming up for the next circuit battle round?? would be good to catch up again

Mirroring R31 Nismoids' comment: dates? Would love to come and attend/help out-it all comes down to the dates the days are on(A.K.A. time off work...)

and hey guys are any of you coming up for the next circuit battle round?? would be good to catch up again

I'd love to come back up again Russ but the reality is I'm not going to be able to make it this year. For starters the car still isn't right so it sure aint going to be spot on for any time in May.

But other than that I've got Dutton W.A and Dutton Vic to worry about (can't make NSW now) plus my wife is due to have our 2nd baby in August. So really it isn't a good year for me to get up there.

I'm hoping the car is going to be perfect for Dutton Vic (doing W.A in an EVO) and so after that then I'll have time to play around and do some other things like Circuit Battle. Actually - we'll probably be coming up to NSW in November for another road trip to Wakefield and Eastern Creek with some fast Vic cars - plus John wants to come down to Vic for another Phillip Island visit so it would be great to catch up with you guys at one of these days. Would love to see your car around the island.

the dates for the next circuit battle is the 24th of may, then the dutton starts there the next day.

hey snowy good to hear a another bub on the way, my wife is pregnant too!(for our second)

and i would love to get to phillip island one day.

1:08 is honking in an s15. What have you done to it?

Also, just watched that video. He doesn't even look like he's trying. The straights are over as quick as a corner!

hey guys thought i would post up a vid of mark doing a 104.2 at wakefield on the weekend, not real good quality but does the job

cheers russ

That was very educational, thanks for that, cant wait to be there in July now :)

Im with Adam! It looks like it has even more in it and that it is doing it so easy! Especially the last corner on to the straight! awesome

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
