I fail to see what was wrong with the old one? I'm pretty sure every track GT-R diffuser I've ever seen looks like that! :P

it's fine appart from the corner that is broken off where a bank hit it (i put it back together for the photo)

roy: it's for the front.

Geez Snowy, like I said in the other thread mate, congrats on your new GTR!

Although I cannot compete with the Shock and Awe of a 34/35 recce/rally duo, we can always have a little fun :)

The stickers finally done by 1am tthis morning, we modded the Signal stripe a bit from the original at the leading edge, it looked a little too much like a willy for my liking. Just needs the Shannnons for the windscreen and the door panels now :P

Once I have it running again I'll grab some better pics of it outside. These pics are of it not quite finished as I was dead on my feet in the later stages.

Ahh the joys of living in Tasmania now.

I can go and check out all the Targa cars!

Look forward to seeing some of these cars in the flesh!

Yeh mate come along for a look! and drag that cousin of yours up, i haven't seen him in nearly 2 years!!!

That's either a random 'everyone in Tasmania is related' joke, or you actually know my cousin Nathan?

yes I know Nathan, have known him (and his antics) for a long time :D

Car looks great Ben, nice job!

Yours too Snowy, that's quite the duo.

And the bonus being my name got spelt right, doesn't happen too often!

Kel - is that Friday 24th? If so Drew/Georgie and I are all on that boat too.

Yep - the 24th it is, looks like we'll be sailing mates :P

I think we're also booked back on the Monday with most of the other Targa traffic- always a fun trip with lots of beer and bullshit!

btw for any navis lurking on this thread (who aren't facebook friendly).

Mozza has passed this on to the Rallying Nav's & Co-Drivers of Australia group on facespace...

Peter Leimuss requires a Nav/co driver for the lefthand seat of his R35 GTR SKyline, please conact Helen Coad at the TARGA TAS office to book your seat,

EXPERIENCE IS VERY NECESSARY,Vandenberg pace notes, and weight is an advantage (or lack of!) !!!!! Flights, accom etc provided

Having done 2 rallies with Pete I can definitely vouch for his driving :P

I am surprised he doesn't have a nav already!

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
