shame the failure on the last run.

It did move around a bit more that the run the day before I think as well. Still ran a 7 at only 160mph! Tough. Would have ran 7.80s on that track if it didnt break!

Huge Congrats to Mark and the Team, was great to watch.

Bring on Jamboree... Side by side 7s please!!!!

:cheers:

Is another Oz GTR going to be there gunning for 7s?? I heard rumour GTR700 might be making a come back.

well extremely surprised is an understatement...im gobsmacked :(

this is some of the parts claimed to be used in the Sentra...

stock block

stock connecting rods

stock pistons

stock head gasket

stock cylinder head

stock cams

stock cam gears

stock timing belt

stock crank

stock intake manifold(slightly modified)

Why is the rest of the world spending $20K+ building tough race long engines...the 'seppo's' are running high 7's with a long engine you can pick up in a wrecking yard!

Adrian you know more than anyone that drag racers have records for everything :)

All sounds perfectly feasible.

:cheers:

If it had standard injectors you'd have to think it was built in WA!!

Awesome Work Congrats to all involved :D

........This makes the car the 3rd fastest GTR in the world and the quickest 2.6ltr RB 26 in the world.

It actually makes it the 4th fastest but only just

AHHH so Duke DID do a 7, I had in my head that they had but when I searched around I couldn't find any proof of it.

    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
