Guessing the 3ltr was in for superlap? Sounds quieter than a 26 in that vid.

What block did you guys end up using, just a run of the mill nissan item, one of the 4wd blocks rips sells, or some other variant?

Impressive steering in the in-car vid too :banana:

Looks like it will scare some of the american/japanese workshop built cars once the attessa is sorted!

yep it's 3ltr. and was 3ltr at superlap. it's far from quiet though, but it does sound different for sure.

most of the engine is from a tomei drag car (yellow 34), but obviously rebuilt. from memory it's a regular nissan rb30 block but mark or russ can confirm that.

it should be very good once sorted. i'm currently sussing out some more events for us in japan after the tsukuba time attack. we are looking to get into some of the best motoring style 5 lap tuner battles against other jap tuned pro class GTRs. now that would be something special. also want to run the car at fuji speedway. mark reckons with the right diffs it will pull 300km+++ at fuji and I don't doubt it. :D

lol, fark it wasn't me! ;)

yeah you are right mate. the yellow tomei R34 along with a couple of other cars was stolen by some lowlifes when it was for sale in aus. I'm not sure how much of the full story is public and I imagine it's a pretty touchy subject but the relevant part here is some stuff was recovered. and of that stuff mark and russ bought some of the bits. not much though. mainly just bonnet, boot and some engine stuff :D

Just spotted the car in the *new & improved* Auto Salon magazine.

The mag is still probably not to everyones' taste, but it's got good coverage of what the boys have been up to.

Congrats to Mark & Russ - great to see the interest and support the car is generating.

NOTE:

You may have noticed this thread has been moved.

SAU Admin have decided to run a new section for "Projects, Overhauls and Build-ups"

As such your thread is a prime example of what we wanted to house in this section.

We have left links in the sections you originally posted also to allow easy access to the threads new home.

Any issues, please feel free to pm myself or N1GTR.

Cheers Col

    • Yes, it will take a fair amount of solution but the sodium citrate + citric acid + detergent is cheap stuff. Use laundry detergent instead of dish soap if you want to reduce the bubbles, also you could just buy sodium citrate and add some citric acid to the mix until you get to a weakly acidic solution if you don't feel like dealing with all the bubbling generated by adding everything together. For a fuel tank you need quite a lot of distilled water but it's probably worth the effort.
    • Actually looks like a Nitrous setup now 😆
    • @robbo_rb180 I already have a NEO head on the shitbox 😎 Just needs beehive springs so I can rev it past the 8600 rpm limiter, then again pointless too, turbo is out of puff lol. Wen da gods let me win lotto eh?
    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
