as some people have said, when your spinning a motor that hard doing a skid your usually not under full throttle

i used to have a awesome thermo set up on my oil cooler in my old gts-t, worked a treat

watch out for fuel surge as well, cause when you whip nuts on rubber caked snake pits you pick up a lot of lateral g's

If you can spin them fast enough you wont need to do it for 2 minutes they will blow before that.

I have helped prepare holden 5L motor for burn out comps and it took 3 motor rebuilds to get it somewhat right, and its coming out again to check it after its last burnout.

It has drains from both rocker covers, a oil catch can that drains back to the sump, a breather in the valley so air doesn't have to push out the rocker breathers (not much use for a skyline) moroso accumulator and also an oil pressure sender that cuts revs to 2500 when oil pressure drops below 30 psi or so. Large oil cooler with thermo fan and hienergy sump, it takes close to 10L of oil.

fark he is soft.

I thought it was running good on sugar cane?

it was running that good with CSR's finest and with the cycle idle going it was having trouble maintaining engine temperature on a stinking hot day it runs that cool.

he was too busy scaring punters with the anti-lag to worry about burnouts.

bugger he single handedly talked me into running sugar cubes in the new sports sedan, then he just wuses out.

Still....anti lag....damn good reason to try a vipec....there is nothing like scaring unsuspecting small children when you drive past.

the cycle idle sounds disgustingly awesome too...some guys buy cams just to hear the lumpy idle...they would empty their sack once they heard an RB on cycle idle. He was told on more than one occasion that he had the toughest sounding car at the Summernats.

cyclic or rotational idle is where a cylinder is dropped by the ecu in order. it cools the cylinder and also lets it idle lower than it would otherwise (because the antilag needs the throttle open a fair way too). sounds like a nasty miss or huge cams....

but neither are required to rip good burnouts....

spot-on...its main use is not to impress the derro's at Summernats but to cool down after the antilag is used.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
