I'll be there to spectate, for sure. If I can get new rubber and the kca349 kit before Sunday, then I'll run as well.

2 thumbs up for the s-afc. Sorting out af ratios and confusing the ecu into not knocking back timing did wonders for me. 253rwhp at Barrys dyno.

Come down on Sunday, it should be great. Launching at the track is much like launching on the street - hold revs, side step clutch at 2nd orange light and hold on for the ride.

I wouldn't worry about that Adam. The first time I went I was a little bit nervous but no one really cares if you make a mistake. No one has made a perfect launch everytime.

My first run I thought I had gone over the staging line so i chucked it in reverse and as soon as i did that the green light went..... wasnt my best run :cool:

Called up Westshock this morning and reserved the last set of kca349 they had. Picked it up this afternoon and looks like word is getting around, cause someone else wanted a set after I'd reserved.

Organized for a pair of yoko A539 to be fitted on Friday. They really should be going on the front, but I may put them on the back for couple of days so I can loose the top skin at the drags.

So, looks like I definantly will be going. :burnout:

KILLER- T, good to hear your able to run. Lets hope the traction gods are smiling on you :)

Guys/Gals

You want to launch about 500RPM higher than FULL BOOST RPM. This is what ive been told and seems affective.

When wheels start to spin back revs off slightly then all the way to redline, Snap 2nd gear and hold on thru gears hehehe

Higher boost/power newbies to motorplex 2nd gear snap seems to launch you into whatever direction you are pointing ie if back wheels kick out u may need to straighten up or u will go offcourse :-)

I find the track is a fair bit grippier than black asphalt

IMPORTANT. Most slightly modded skylines will do a +160kmhr terminal speed which is just over 3rd gear redline so make sure u take 3rd to the end

:burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

Does anyone agree with this

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
