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

I have done more laps there in the Lotus then i have my own car :(

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 :)

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
