All.

I've been lucky enough to receive an invite to a select event on behalf of Skylines Australia forum/site, and the SAU-Vic club as a whole.

This entails a Tour of the F1 Paddock, Ferrari Garage and the Track Lab at the F1 GP this weekend

As a part of this there will be a Q&A session with Shell Technical Engineers & Track Lab team members surrounding Shell, fuels and so on.

If anyone has something they would like me to specifically ask about then post up here and I will endeavour to attain an answer for you :(

Im permitted to take photo's and so on, im not sure what exactly that might be yet however, hopefully some cool gear.

Post up the tech questions!

This is posted in Forced Induction also:

Thanks to Endelmen Public Relations (Con Frantzeskos) & Shell for such an opportunity.

Perhaps this is my own "Red Jacket" of sorts? :(

Cheers

Ash

do shell plan in introducing ethanol based products for the domestic market?

given the trends towards green fuels and better emmissionions & competitors such as BP already have 95ron with Ethanol (E15)

alot of shell's have E10...

tell them to bring back v-racing 100 octane and make it more available, actually tell them to make it 105 octane :P

+1.

They only need to sell it at one station in the city eg.,Nth or Sth Melb one. All of us have to go to the city at least once per tank.

I already know some of that (from last years meeting), as should a few others

V-Power Racing was LESS than 1% of sales or production... vs the cost it wasn't viable or something close to that marker.

E85 (last year) they were not looking into then... however its now 6 months later - so i will certainly ask that one!

<br />yeah, also interested to find out when shell is going to add E85 to their lineup. There is only 1 station with E85 near me and its United Bulleen, so untill there is more, its not very convenient.<br />

not even.... buleen doesn't have e85.... united are just ghey and disorganised

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
