lol, you mean lucky me? surely PI isnt that hard to get a car into??

yea i like that... but that goes on glass, is the one for behind the driver, mounted on the cross bar of a cage?

lol sorry what I meant is that any magazine article done on your car is a good thing, not everyone can say their car has been in a magazine :)

That mount can go on panels outside also but i know what you mean, you need one with a ring grip on it yeah? like these - http://www.camzilla.com.au/products/clamp-mounts

Bumping this thread; a current 400kw club member got off the rollers last night with a slightly higher reading than before. The car is an animal now!

Anyone else breaking into the 400's lately?

I'll only list a few of the major mods

R33 GTR motor

Cp pistons

Eagle Rods

Tomei oil pump

Trust 264/272 cams

Tidy'd up head ports

Arp studs through out the motor

Precision 6765 still with T3 rear housing .82

Haltec ecu

1600cc Indy whites

442kw at the wheels on 26psi.

I've now ordered at T4 divided rear 1.00 so should make some better numbers..

Holy wheelspin batman!!!

With normal street tyres yeah, just cruising along in 4th and put ya foot down it would start baking as soon as it come onto boost.. But with 275 Micky t ET streets it hooks up and goes, cars not manual anymore though, just bought a 2 speed for it.

Our race car cracked 441rwkws/592rwhp the other week.

RB30DET

6boost mani w/ gt35r 1.06 rear 45mm progate.

STD gtr plenum & throttles adapted to 25 head

Domed CP Pistons

Custom ring set

Spool I beam rods

Kelford 264in/272ex 10.2mm

Light Port work

1mm oversize inlet valves, 2mm oversize ex

bosch 2000cc squirters

Running off gate pressure cracks 23psi by 4000rpm from memory and then bleeds off down to 19psi by redline @ 7500. Peak power is around 6500rpm at about 20psi. Need to hook up and setup a boost controller to hold 23psi to redline.

Not a bad effort for a 35r. I will try and find the printout, though I think my old man has it somewhere.

Sorry that was using straight methanol.

Yeh it did it quite easily too. If we can get it hold the 23psi to redline, I would reckon it would easily crack over 600rwhp. First run it was at 17psi which for some reason it could hold to redline, Im guessing back pressure was at an equal level to intake pressure so the wastegate could manage it at which it made about 510rwhp. Then I changed the spring setup to a 24 psi combo and it only went to 23psi and bled back as I was saying in the other post. But at only a few psi more then the previous run it oozed out another 80 odd hp which was unexpected.

The great bit about the alcohol is the car stays nice and cool, water temps stay in check, oil doesnt get warm enough which is actually abit worrisome and the inlet manifold is cool constantly with the fuel rail chilly. It is amazing stuff.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
