Most of the cars I put up have just been thru Photo shoots for Express publications so all the details will be out soon.

Their Improved production cars so the mods are not over the top.

GTiR may be ready for WAs round of the V8 Taxis.

Looks to be a GTS-R? But why oh wy does it have an RB25...so wrong :huh:

Meh torque, in a rwd drive is heavily over rated. :( All it does is turn tyres. I will take less torque and actually have traction and a wide power band giving me good drivability and be able to get on it mid corner :P

LOL, really i just like cheap motors that dont cost d1ck to replace in case something goes astray. :/

Dont confuse noise with Horsepower!

Every performance RB20 I've seen makes alot of noise but not moving very fast. Some may make decent HP but Fark all torque.

I hope that S14 of yours has an engne better then those getting around in most of the club cars in Vic :down:

Funny, there isnt an SR20 in our club that is really going faster then my GTSt and there are a few stripped and serious S13s or S14s, even S15. I have not been to the track in my car in almost 2 years and only recently has a seriously tweaked S14 with built motor gone 0.5 second quicker then me at Sandown, and a gutted S13 with good power go something like 0.2seconds quicker then me at Phillip Island....so considering these are the only SR20 cars just quicker then me, and have only dont the times recently with way more chassis and car overall.... i just dont understand how people can argue that the SR20 is clearly superior because even in lighter cars they are no quicker. In the wash i think they generally end up the same, they just go about it differently.

If i had of been in the country and still tracking my lowly std RB20 i no doubt would have improved on my pretty horrible laps....many have seen the footage of those laps and if you have you know its my rough house driving slowing the car down..

LOL, you got bite :D

      $5 Clock upgrade for R32 GTR

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
