cheers russ

ahh So this is the R33, man that is awsome!. Would love to see it in the flesh. Do ya think you will finish it, and get a chance to get it out on the track for some fun in the October Timeattack, before ya sell it?. would love to see that!

cheers,

dale

Love the old ZED!!!

What do you do after you take the car off the road for close to 12 months tidying up the bodywork? Well you go to Sandown and get it wrong and end up doing this :)

Hmm, nasty. The car seems very loose in the back, even when not on power. What suspension did it have in it when you smaked the wall?

lol I don't think so somehow - even less likely now its been shown a gtr can beat those pesky rx7s with the restrictors in

To be fair to CAMS (something I hate doing) at least gtrs are eligible for sports sedans now - will be interesting to see the first person brave enough to try that.....hopefully Mr B will give it a shot sometime :thumbsup:

here are a few videos of my car from Eastern Creek on the weekend:

Catching a Commodore through turn 1:

Passing a few cars:

A full clear lap:

I ended up doing 1:52.15, which was ok but I was aiming for sub 1:50s. Apparently I'll need non cooked second hand tyres for that!

That sounds great, mate. Good stuff!

*** DISCLAIMER ***

Car's owner doesn't understand all those bendy bits he keeps seeing in your photos. Talk slowly and in words of three syllables or less and he probably won't brain haemorrhage.

Here's my nugget - broken at the moment but will be back soon to try and take some sort of obscure, non-existent racing record like most drag racers tend to do. >_< Built RB25DET, GT35, Ford C4, Nitrous, Turbosmart everything, Autronic SM4, Roundy-roundy suspension etc.

Pics are from WSID (my home away from home) and Willowbank Raceway where the only time the steering wheel is needed is when the burnout gets out of shape. Oh, and for that mongrel of a hairpin at the end of the track.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
