Formal challenge as posted in the Supra forums

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Sk...ha-t233629.html

Of all the events we can challenge the Supras to this has to be the one we have a good chance of winning. The GTS-T's have a great advantage around the track due to their light weight.

We need a good show of Skylines, have a bit of Skyline pride, save up, come out and whip some Supra butt. You don't need to be the best to win a trophy either.

I'll be there if my car is ready, its still in pieces after Wakefield but I hope to have it up and going again within a month... (hopefully) ;)

I'll be there to race, but I don't think I will be super quick. The GT-R's have a massive advantage on an uphill launch, and an uphill run suits the more powerful cars. And I will be running street tyres :(

reece as alwas is quitely modest, lol, i should be entering this one, but ill be in the FSAE open wheeler, wooo, ill have my ride there to add to the line tho,

I know some of those Supra boys may have more muscle then PHD's :-), however I'm not sure we can convince them skylines came out in open wheeler configuration.

Its okay, you can double enter :blink: c'mon, support the Lines

interesting yet i still keep saying the skylines and supras are super different cars. the only thing you could compare is a gtst against one or a rwd only gtr. yet would still love to see it. take it easy, stuart (if my new engine is in can i enter)

(if my new engine is in can i enter)

This event is opened to everyone and is being run by SDMA, all types of cars are welcome but have to meet scrutineering guidelines i.e. safe, fire extinguisher (no plastic brackets), safe rubber/wheels (fit within guard, no wheel wobble). Club is very supportive, you can get your CAMS L2S there on the day and a daily club membership is $10 (you can do this three times and if you want to join after that your 3x$10 can be deducted from your membership).

If anyone has any questions, please let me know and I will do what I can to help out. If I don't know the answer, I'll find out for you.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
