Just got home from David Copperfield and damm, He has some skills. Making 8 ppl disappear off stage. Making a car in mid air on stage appear. So much crazy shit.

Was worth the money seeing him.

He's a pole smoker so he will reply.

He races a shitty little tin top standard class car and he loves telling people what the rules are in Dirt Circuit when he has only been racing for 2 years. People like my brother and me have around racing all our lives; dad raced before we were born, and we have been racing ourselves since we were 10. Yet he loves informing us of the rules. He's a pole smoker!

Well i'm pulling the engine out tomorrow to clean some stuff up for Extreme HP Show, so if i have the engine back in i'll make an appearance. I'll be fitting the 264x9.0 cams while the engine is out so it'll be making some more power when it runs next. Hopefully 230-240rwkw @ ~17psi, but at that point the AFM will be at it's limit.

= WIN!

I might also throw some SAU:SA stickers onto it

:D

^^Nice looking bike Ruby ;)

Unfortunately, my mate who bought it off me (and I'm subsequently buying it back off) resprayed it a yellow, red, green theme :D and I'm going to respray it back to its original colours (as in the pic). I gotta source the decals from the UK again ... but thats okay, because the Tyga race system is coming from the UK also. I've got until Feb next year to set this bike up ready for next season. Might sound like enough time, but I'll be working interstate 3 weekends over 3 months and due to missing some local practice days at Mallala, that only leaves me 1 (maybe 2) track sessions for myself to test and tune it.

Yes, thats a runway which goes right thru a major city highway. They shut the highway down everytime a plane needs the runway :thumbsup:

or you can buy my 31 :thumbsup:

I sorta have a cheap R31 already..468,000 k on it

purrs like a kitten still

just think a car like daves old one would be good, there cheap as hell now, less then 9k for a cool one

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
