Nice time? I didn't think so. Absolutely horrid out there tonight. I can't be ****ed wasting my time on a track that is more slippery than everyday roads.

My best time was 13.7 @ 105mph (170kph), 60' 2.344.

I think dan the man ran a best of 13.9 @ 106mph last I spoke to him.

Rob77 was having problems out there too. Did you end up with a 13.xx eventually, rob?

KILLER-T made a galant effort (considering the track) with a 13.4 @ 110mph.

Every other skyline there was firmly stuck in 14's.

Fastest SAU member there was Cam with a 12.7.... on his 750cc crotch rocket :)

Dan, Your mph seems to be high, which I think means they may have changed there timing equipment. It doesn't matter, just makes the car faster than last years. Otherwise you have alot of horsepower to be going so quick:D

*sigh* kerbed my car on the way home.I went past my mates house and on the way back to the freeway approaching a roundabout that was so dimly lit with no giveway signs, I locked up the brakes got the car sideways (90 degree's), sailed through the roundabout and hit the kerb at the other end... damage (as far as I can see) one poped rear tyre, 1 unhealthy looking side skirt, I looked under the car both control arms are fine (from looking at them, not bent), springs looked good and unbent, no damage to engine or intercooler or anything... fingers crossed its just the tyre and my suspension and axel are ok. I did end up cracking a 13.888 @ 110mph, my fastest mph was 111.3mph and my 60' times were all around 2.7 :)

Rob - bugger mate, hope there's no big damage..

Erik - bugger again. Stupid bogans...

My night was great fun. I forgot how quick the bike actually was.. and how scared I am of launching it on one wheel! My best time turned out to be a 12.4 @ 189km/h - BUT with a 2.35 60' time?! I think if I had the balls to climb up further on the bike and launch it at 8,000rpm and above I'd get a respectable 60' and maybe a flat 12 or high 11.

Still great fun tho! :)

Dont feel bad Rob...

I was bringing the Rex down last night after all the work is now finished.. pull out of the driveway and my car starts to whistle like a police siren when i accellerate. On turning around and going home looks like my brand new turbo has shat its self after about 700km.. i mean WTF.

Im hoping Ive split o hose or something, but all will be revealed tonight when i check....

anyway still came down in the Magna and watched...

saw that gen 3 pull a 13.3, white sti did 13.3, and wrx wagon did 13.3........

Erik,

You parked next to me in the parking lot (nice shiny exhaust) I noticed your driver's mirror insert was gone when I left around 9:10pm... I thought it was odd..

That sucks to have that happen to you!

As for the track, last week it was as slippery as hell and I was wheelspinning into 3rd gear, i don't even do that on the street!

and with 2.5 60's i wasn't impressed.... let alone a week later when you guys all had a run!

and MOST of the MPH's were pretty high from what I saw last night too... that is very odd!

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
