that's funny cause fatz tried to get into one from the 1st floor balcony, but he just landed in the bushes....

What a massive day at private practice today at Oran GP. There were over 30 cars.

Cars from every class at Superlap were there.

Saturday private practice is going to be out of control :D

Sunday is going to be massive!!

Crikey you guys are nice. :woot:

I was a little sorry not to be doing Superlap this year but after reading that lot it's obvious we are not welcome. Good luck to all competing.

BTW you really should get all you facts straight before making comments you may later regret.

Based on the comments of some of the other lotus guys, do you blame them?

I'm sorry? Read what he actually wrote and tell me where he is wrong? We never entered our car or expressed any interest in running yet we were shown on the list. Not our fault. The yellow car was destroyed in a serious accident at Phillip Island last year so obviously it can't run.

The oil you can see on the track in from the BSM Skyline the race before.

UM maybe you should edit your post to say "Maybe some of the oil might have been from the BSM car".

Sunday was an oil-fest,,,almost every class oiled the track up.

Nice win though,,,Congrats to Tim.

Neil.

David,,,please don't think that everybody here hates the Lotus's. I don't and I think they add major spice to superlap.

Ha Ha superkarts,,,whats worse oil or glycol?. They should stop calling superkarts to the dummy grid,,,they should call all lunatics without seatbelts to the dummy grid!!!.

Neil.

UM maybe you should edit your post to say "Maybe some of the oil might have been from the BSM car".

Yeah, Sorry about that Lofty. I was told by one of the grid marshals that you dropped the oil, or at least some of it. I just read on the other thread that you in fact spun on the oil and didn't drop it. Sorry about that and I hope they get the car sorted in time for Superlap.

I dont think anybody here hates Lotus. What they do hate is pretentious condescending arseholes Logging in to a skyline forum for the express purpose of throwing shit and then taking the bolt.

If same arsehole is going to take cheap shots at our "datto's" what does he expect. Did he seriously think we would all kiss his magnificent sacred arse, not likely. A few disparaging remarks as to his parentage and A gentle reminder of the Incredible giant killing all conquering leyland engine lurking beneath the bonnet of the mighty loty was about as kind as it was going to get. :D

That's very nicely put Mr Fineline.

If anyone was offended by the afforementioned pretentious condescending arsehole, then i unresevedly apologise. That was not the intention at all.

The post was really as result of reading many pages of anti-Lotus sentiment. There were many un-truths being posted. The "other side of the story" was missing.

Anyway, we've all said our bit. Again, i'm sorry for any disparaging remarks i may have made. I know quite a few on this forum personally, and certainly don't wish to sour relationships.

It did make for a few days of entertainment. :D

I hope y'all have a great day at OP.

Tim.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
