I think my coilovers would suit that course well. There fairly soft even on there hardest setting which is what i have them on all the time and that leaves me with 5 adjustments on my shocks to go softer. I'll def go up there one day and give it a go.

Would be there with bells on if only family wasn't over from Interstate. :thumbsup:

Can't wait for next year's come and try. The teins I run are setup fairly soft but not sure how it would handle some of those dips. :S

Out of the 49 cars today, 5 broke into the 30's which were 3x WRXs, #26 (listed as Nissan Skyline owned by a Luke) and myself in my 32 GTR.

I've got the sheets here for all 6 runs by everyone if anyone wants their times (even section times).

Awesome day. I posted a 46.48 on my first run, 43.88 on second, 43.45 on third, 42.97 on 4th run, 46.04 on 5th run (it was raining hard, track was a river and a awd launch that wouldn't stop spinning the wheels all the way to the 1st timing line) and finished with a 39.85 with some advice from Evil34 about launches

2 WRX's actually, that red monster had two drivers :bunny: The other WRX that did the 39.7 was my stock turbo'd bugeye.

Was a great day, kinda wish I still had my GTR though :)

39.7 is amazing for a first run, whats up with the 79.23 time though, sight seeing or go off the track and miss the final timing strip?

I *may* have broken into a bit of an impromptu ballet demonstration for the crowd on the hill... Just came in way too hot into "The Wall" and the rear decided it wanted to lead the show so managed to brake hard on a greasy patch and around she went!

Would have loved the chance for a dry run but with two 40's in the pissing rain I'm happy enough to wait for the June event :(

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
