little birdie tells me that one of the GMS HR31s that currently races in the Group A/C historic racing category has been sold

good reason for this

the ex-owner wants to start racing (his) the GMS R32 GTR. this thing will be brilliant to watch at the track.

anyway perhaps 31Gun can shed some more light on this..

should make next years Group A/C racing bloody excellent to watch - only downside being that the 31s are gonna be copping a hiding from the godzilla

bring it on!!!

Actually, its good and bad news in my eyes. It was good to see the R31s mixing it up with VL Walkinshaws and the promise that a Sierra or two were going to be joining the fray. There was soem good racign to be had. Only if the R32 starts running it will no doubt enjoy a 1-2 second advantage :P

The rumours im hearing is that both the Gibson cars and the GIO GTR will be running soon, also ive heard that a guy in the vic south eastern suburbs has recent brought over the blue calsonic GTR from japan.

theres also i belive 2 more HR31's coming into the country, so its gonna be skyline mania from next year in the historic touring cars!

cant wait for phillip island in feb next year!

Edited by The only ways is sideways

Ye Hooks posted it up in the Vic Events bit Mark :P

Terry sold the 31 to the owner of Sizzler, and then purchased the GTR :P

But the historic meet wont have a few there like it was meant to due to circumstances :(

Actually, Terry already owned the Godzilla.

And the bluebird, DR30, and Gazelle.

My take on it is that Rod just keeps getting quicker, Chris is a damn good driver to boot, as witnessed by his win at E/C.

And Terry don't like to lose.

So its the old 'bring a gun to a knife fight' thing :thumbsup:

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
