45.8 is super fast. What are you guy's going to do with more track time. Might see if I can bring the GT2 or the 'Black' CLK AMG out for a blast on thursday!! Should be interesting as Loftys car is good for low 46's with the restrictors in it and full IPRA weight.

Even with the rain Saturday did not end up being to bad. Gave Mark & Russ plenty of time on the track to themselves to get to know the lines. Considering it was their first ever time at OP it will be very interesting to see what happens as they get more track time there.

Was good to meet everyone who was there ( Steve, Chris, Wizard & Wayne ) Hopefully cant wait to see you guys out on track. However I think Wizard has an upper hand after speaking with him he has plenty of exp at OP. I hopefully will be making my way out their on thursday once again to help the boys and see what they can do time wise on the full circuit.

I'll be there thursday to give JP a hand with the slot car (aka the Boat)

when he puts Russ and Mark in there places (his words not mine) lol.

all the midnight oil better pay off

Good to meet everyone on saturday and will catch up again on thursday

cheers Ron

oooooh, the big show down eh? who's side am I on? Johnny is a mate, but so is mark and russ, plus they have the mighty GTR where as johnny drives some kind of half arsed convertible 'targa roof' thing.

It will be close. Johnny has heaps more OP experience and a pretty well sorted sled. Mark and Russ are both very handy too but with no oran experience they will need a few laps to get up to speed. having said that Mark is a bloody quick learner and not afraid to go at it so I predict Mark will be .5 seconds quicker by the end of the day. sorry johhny. hehe.

actually I reckon you should put your cash on me in the silvia. I might be able to sort some nice second hand semis before thursday and I reckon if I just weld the gate shut I should be able to run about 11ty pounds of boost which should negate john's "push to pass" advantage, plus I've done heaps of oran park laps on my playstation which means I'll know all the tricks better than mark or russ.

so can someone put up a sheep station for this?

Looks as though I will be out at oran later in the afternoon on thursday to have a play in the GT2 and the AMG. I will be at Wakey with them on wednesday and maybe Eastern creek as well.

Will be using oran at the end of the day on thursday to do 400m times.

So yes, I am trying to do all 3 tracks in two days with 2 hot cars...life is hard sometimes :down:

haha!! hey bozman that sounds like the life!!! bloody hell

will be good to get down there and get on the full track! can't wait.

ron , tell johnny he'd better weld a front diff in there if he expects to beat a gtr! :down:

but give us a few laps practice first ! like about a hundred.

Yes it is the 'BLACK' CLK just like the F1 pace car. This is the only one in the country at the moment. Australia is getting a limited number of 50!!!

It is currently on a truck on its way from Melbourne. It will be in Sydney in the morning and I will have it by lunch :D

haha!! hey bozman that sounds like the life!!! bloody hell

hehe, if johnny whinges about not having a front diff one more time I'll ram one up his clacker!!

we have already have a GTR owners excuse book thanks to many unkind individuals not accepting our 'reasons' for failure, I think we need a john penlington, 300ZX drivers excuse book now. I'll kick things off:

1. i don't have a front diff.

2. i don't have fancy tyres.

3. push to pass button fell off. (from constant use).

4. I couldn't get my targa roof closed.

5. I forgot to put in the bonnet pins.

6. I don't have a front diff.

7. i'm just a little battler, not like all those guys with a decent budget and a workshop of their own

8. A hairdresser called Cecil mistook my car for his and took off in it.

9. I slipped on rocks dragged onto the track by fatz.

10. I don't have a front diff.

11. I had a nail appointment that I just couldn't break

12. I slipped on a GTR's oil.

13. I couldn't make it as desperate houswives was on telly.

14. Beer Baron put me off with all his trash talking.

That's a solid start. :)

    • Had another look at the car and I noticed the fuel pump isn't priming on ignition. I'd taken out the pump from the boot to siphon out the old fuel, so maybe I've knocked something loose or broken a wire putting things back together. Will go back with a multimeter and try to work out what's stuffed. Kinda hoping it's the pump itself thats gone so I can upgrade it
    • Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)  
    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA
