yeah its on this weekend, and watchers are welcome. just make sure you bring a gtr so i can steal bits when required lol. sunday is better as sat includes qualifying and scruitineering. and you will probably need to pay for entry

BTW.......I need an intake headlight for the new sports sedan....where did you get it, and do you mind if we make a mould from it?

i dont think my gtr is good for pilfering parts at the moment. but my garage.. well thats another story..

and i think brad wants to mould it too. or do something along them lines.

its made by http://www.silkroad-jp.com/section/hli.html

;)

have you shared how you worked out the oil temp gauge problem mad scientist?

ROFLMAO,,,Yea come on buddy share. Nothing like taking the piss out of poor Duncan. Such good fun..

He will come good,,,we just have to wait. Happy days.

As a great man said "It's not my car".

Neil.

could be a chilly weekend thanks to the arsehole racing drivers club. $200 for a garage and they are all booked already by porsche drivers.

According to BOM

Saturday Mostly fine.

West: Min: 6 Max: 17

Sunday Chance shower.

West: Min: 7 Max: 17

looks like lovely 4wd turbo weather.

we need to get the pop off valve sorted this weekend too :)

BTW Brad I asked about our disagreement re the regs and the tech committee will get back to me. I will be happy if they agree with you :D I'd love a few more killer wasps or even better some less lag with those slow old turbos

Andrew id really like to borrow that headlight if you dont mind!!

Ill be out there on sunday so can pick it up from you then, Duncan you just want one of them??

I am getting a mould done of it and also a brake duct/intake mould too.

Duncan you know we're going to get an ammended rule book now with the loop holes fixed.

Also what form of boost controller are you actaully using Duncan??

You know that the form of controlling boost is free provided the pressure remains within the manufactures specs.

Jas - yes we will run a pop off valve on the weekend that will enforce 11psi (stock boost for r32 gtr). If anyone has nissan docs confirming that n1s had the rumoured 14psi it would be really damn helpful to me....

Jess - sorry, can't hear you :)

Brad - they only know I have a question, not that there are different "interpretations" out there. I want it clarified before I spend another 1k on poncams. And yes I got agreeement to run a boost controller (i have greddy prospec blah blah thingy) because the standard boost control is *very* unreliable. so at least if the valve keeps going off I can turn it down a bit. And I would love a copy of the headlight for the sports sedan :P

Looks like the suspension might be in afterall, Gary has been flat out putting it together and we are going to try and fit it all up tomorrow night, and wheel align at the track on Sat morning.

That only leaves the side pipes and suspension pickup adjustments as the only things I still need to do for the new rules. Then onto building the spare engine, and if nothing goes wrong (lol) it will all be pretty organised.

BTW I hear a rumour there will be a 400+rwkw gtr sport sedan running. If I didn't annoy them enough last weekend, I think a real one will this weekend :( will be interesting to see how it goes over a few laps - hope the have got some really nasty sticky slicks for it, about 325 wide would be nice

You'd like the original one? or would you like the section/silkroad number?? hopefully i can make it out on sunday,

as for boost control, get a large needle, and start poking thousands of holes in your accuator lines, and then pray it all holds together :D

lol I think that is what they are trying to get on top of Andrew.

We are on 3rd so about 10ish and 2ish each day probably. new shocks are in after 1am this morning (and thanks for providing the cold cold garage and help Neil :)), just needs a wheel alignment in the morning and off we go.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
