Cheers Mike :cheers:

was just great to finally launch the car for the 1st time after 10 months :P

we kept the rev limits low to 7500 to play it safe & boost was only 1.8 bar

60 foots ended up at 1.3 so still another couple of 10ths there but fantastic to see the car back up & running.

it runs straight as you like which really helps confidence in it & just seems like it could take twice the power without any probs.

Just testing testing & more testing now really to get some time in the seat & learn where to save some time & crank the power up slowly

8.5 @ 161mph and still on low boost with no NOS :)

AWESOME to hear, sounds like its going to go VERY fast...

John has asked me to post the following as he's got internet problems at the moment..

Well I have contacted http://www.andra.com.au/ asking for permission to run next year, fingers crossed & if ok will then contact the tracks for permission.

Looking at the dates we have decided to run in BOTH of the Sydney & Perth Summer Nationals so really hope we can run.

Have also sent an e-mail to HTL asking if there is any chance of a joint run - a long shot I know but if you don't ask - lol

God knows if I will get the chance to do this again so worth a go

John.

Thanks guys - well now have approval from Andra to run who have been really really helpful which is great news :rolleyes:

Perth Motorplex have also confirmed they are happy for us to run so only waiting on WSID now & it's all systems go which is amazing :(

We will run in the Super Sedan class when we are over in Aus & for me this is a dream come true - a pile of testing to do here in the UK between now & the end of October & we will bust a gut to see hopefully a 7sec run before the car gets put into a container & shipped.

I can feel a lot of beers coming on in Feb/March 2008 :sorcerer:

;) Each time this is updated, it just gets better and more exciting!!

Well done; awesome run :D

    • Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)  
    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA
