Hey Brad

You can come and look at the BLACK series AMG. Actually anyone can look at this amazing car as it is owned by AMG MERC.

I am testing the AMG and GT2 for MOTOR and have been forced to do laps at the listed circuits in both of these cars.

Warren Luff is the usual Stig for MOTOR but is busy with Porsche doing drive days so I was next in line.

Both the GT2 and AMG are black. So I think we might get noticed driving around.

Private practice is at Oran Park GP this thursday. I am sure there will be a few people getting some laps in before SL 08.

Should be able to get on the circuit by 9.30am if you have a proper CAMS licence.

Depending on what cars turn up, there may be a couple of different sessions ie for open wheelers, sedans etc

is there anywhere i can see it today as i cant make it this Thursday :D I have a mate who would also be very interested in seeing it as well. Will it be available for viewing at an AMG dealer and if so which one??

Sorry for all the questions mate, just very very keen to get a look at one

Hey Brad

I don't think it will happen today as I have a pretty full schedule. I am not sure what is happening with the car once we have finished with it. I think MOTOR mag hand it back to AMG merc on monday. The deputy editor for the mag who is going to be with me for the next few days writing the story on the GT2 vs CLK 'Black' :D has also made the car available to himself for the rest of the weekend :)

I think the GT2 will smash the AMG to be honest. Pretty sure the AMG 0-100km is 4.2 and the GT2 is 3.6 seconds!!!

Can't wait to see what times they do around the circuits. I know it is off topic but I will keep you all posted.

What's the story with media accreditation for this event?

Look what you guys get up to when I am not looking. Beer Baron you are a card.

My money is on Russ to until I get my dog box and FRP doors and perspex windows and rack off side skirts and rear diffuser then might be on their door. I have not done many laps of GP once in 1984 in my RX3 with 165 wide road tyres would you believe and 1 min 35. Twice in the zed also had FM problem on one for the days and did a 1 40.67 in our loan car Ford Corsair 2.4 litre stock front wheel drive oil on the track.

Yes have aero improvements and suspension geometry changes in front end and lightened the zed a bit and yes pulled another 30rwkw plus out of her last week. BTW Keith Carling back in early 90's did a 40.9 Oran South in zed sports sedan. 1150kg with driver. BIG aero tube frame 800hp.

Imagine if I could fit R35 gtr motor with front diff in her??? I can't knock gtrs or use excuses as my car is full of gtr parts.

I missed sat as cams licence did not come through and set for Thursday if this lovely rain stops. GTR Jason you coming? I might not punt Russ and Mark off yet but will give you a go. Bozzo are you a definite for Thursday with those black monsters?

Hey I am a fair weather sailor.

BTW Apart from last Sat practice day missed, Russ & Mark and I were the only ones that turned up to every Circuit Battle, prior to the big Super Lap starting.

    • 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
