Yeh, my only Winton time is from last years Dutton, so two laps and i was held up by the F430 Ferrari on my hto lap. He was doing 1:47s so hurt me to the tune of at least 1.8-2.4 seconds as i caught him through the long left hand sweeper and couldnt get past him until the tight right hander onto the back straight away where the timing beacon was :(

I think any R32/S13/14/15 platform with 220-240rwkws and tidy suspension and tyres would be in the hunt for that time. Dutton last year has got me thinking that a low 1:35 is possible in my car with some laps.

Roy I was just checking your Winton time coz I really didn't think a 1:36 from an S13 with a bit of kit and a good run with traffic was really that big of a deal?

It's not really something major, but it's probably the quickest s13 I've seen around Winton. No doubt it would be doable with my old setup with some more track time there, but there's not too many 'quick' s13's kicking around the track days in Vic :)

i agree, 36 is not a special time, it is just rare to see an s13 doing them. you think you know most the track cars kicking round but then you get a surprise. if i had 230+ i would be mighty pissed if i couldnt get a 36 with the amount of laps i have done there.

That silver 180 is Promax Auto's car. The drivers name is Alan and it has around 230rwkw. Hes been there a heap of times now but good effort getting it into the 36's, he really does push it hard though

Belsil80, the 180sx is my brother and the evo6 was me, however i blow up my engine at session 2.....:laugh:

oh...and... phunky_monkey, my brother just told me the engine he is using now is the one he bought it off you sometime last year...... small world...and all he did is a GT2871R, power fc, 550cc injectors and a boost controller. no internal mods to the engine yet. He is very happy with the condition of the engine is in and he can't wait to go to a track day with you when your car is done... cheers

Very small work indeed! I'm also the guy who came ot look at the tyres if you remember...

Glad to hear the engine is still going strong. I probably should have kept it, then I'd be racing right now! That was a great engine, never gave me any grief. Hopefully we can go for a run out there together soon :)

We were running 1.6 bar and 240 rwkw for quite a few years with that engine... built Nissan Tough!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
