Really? Very interesting.

GT-FOUR's are AWD anyway arent they? Not ideal for drift!

That just might be the dumbest shit I've ever read.

Obviously the AWD system was completely removed, none of this torque split bollocks, completely scrapped.

HUH? It's just a pain in the ass removing an AWD system, when you could buy a more common RWD version. I know it can be done, I am not stupid as you seem to think. What I wrote is that it is 'Not Ideal', meaning that it is not the easiest route to having a drift setup.

Was there really any point to flaming me? You have a bad day today, champ?

99% of competitive track cars start life as a wreck/shell or bargain basement entry level model with massive kays.

Why wouldn't you buy a more common RWD? Because an non turbo auto GT-4 is as cheap as an R34 gets aside from a four door of the same configuration.

I'm having a so-so day, thanks for your concern sweet heart.

the main gripe with the 4wd system when converting to rwd is gearbox/transfer case/front diff/sump and possibly some wiring, all that shit would be removed anyway for the LS1, so why wouldnt you save some money and get the cheap shit GT4 as a base?

who gets the carton anyway?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
