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.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
