Show Me Your Racing Machines

[phunky_monkey]

Got some of the R33 stripped on the weekend. just have to take the rear seats out, and the carpets now.

We have the same brakes and air compressors

And it looks like my rotors are on the wrong way, thanks for posting that pic up!

the slots don't matter, it's the direction of the vanes that's important. in the pic posted you can just see the curve/angle of the vanes is correct. phunky, yours may have the slots cut the other way in relation to the vanes. (ie with the rotors mounted correctly vane wise your slots may face the other way).

Good to see that everyone has been working hard on thier machines, as have I. I've been working on seting up a set of GTR throttle bodies and plenum on to an RB25. Not a job for the feint hearted. Finaly got a decent tune in to it today. No real power increase but emensly different fuel mapping was need everywhere and took the best part of the day. In the end the power comes on a little earlier in the rev range, has a flatter curve and moved peak power up by nearly 1000rpm in the rev range. Might be easier to power out of corners? will track test and refine tomorrow at morganpark.

Will post up some pics later. Off to do a wheel alignment for gatton street sprints and testing.

Mine are from a GT-R, and are the same brand of rotor, so I think they're on backwards... I knew I'd get it wrong

hehe, thats the second time your rotors have been put on the wrong way dane... i did it the first time they went on the gtr, didn't notice until it i'd put everything away and taken the car off the hoist!

[phunky_monkey]

Haha that makes me feel a bit better Stu

By the way, your old GT-R is in this months HPI. I think it's this months anyway... looks great though.

This is my baby hopping to have it finished by super lap 2010 but it costs so such.

It has an RB30/26 Motec M800 Alcon's ext and it is all done by Ben at Race Pace Motorsports.

[t01-100]

dane - yeah noticed that the other week... i paid plenty for the comments about me in there!

jason - awesome looking car. still have to ring you back sorry! can you eft?

[evil_weevil]

Wow that looks awesome Jason!!!

[Marlin]

Indeed, great lookin thing Jason!

[phunky_monkey]

Stu - I haven't read it yet, just had a flick through. I'll have a read when I get home

Jason: Very nice GT-R you have there, well done!

mumma mia! that's a spicy meatball you have there.

any more details? turbo(s)? suspension? it looks very serious, and very nicely done so far. no doubt it will be a weapon as ben certainly knows how to make a quick track GTR.

when it's finished I'd be happy to test crash... i mean test drive it for you...

[NickR33]

damn Jason that GTR will be a weapon... mine is an old school Racepace build and is still frightfully quick... yours would be in another world! Benno sure knows how to build 'em... and spend your money lol

[RAZOR32]

got the evo back on saturday so threw some paint on it today...

Hi Stu, who's doing the cage in the evo for you? it looks sweet as im about to put one in my R32 finally

Cheers, Ray

[sikjet]

Thanks for the thumbs up guys .

The Turbo is one of Ben's custom T04Z's on a Race Pace manifold with an HKS 60mm gate.

The suspension will be a set of Bens custom tein's and all links will be Ikeya Formula

Doubt it will be all that fast, its not red! Althought beign Racepace kind of means the car has to be white

I have made an addapter manifold to mount a set of GTR throttle bodies and plenum for my RB25. It has worked quite well but not improved the area of the fine throttle response I was looking for. It has improved and moved the power up higher in revs though.

I'm going back to the old setup.

[Marlin]

Time consuming little experiment!

[Roy]

You probably need the more aggressive ramp rates of the solid lifter cams to get the mid range and response that goes with the multi setup on the RB26s

interesting, i went the rb26 plenum setup on my 25 and i gave alot of response.

Before the setup had full boost (16psi) at 3300rpm

after

Full boost (18psi) at 3000rpm

I'm using the blitz kit
