Nah not gonna make it to Jambo, trying to get the car ready for the next Andra meet at Mackay so the car can be inspected and get my license all passed out that way there will be nothing stopping us from going flat out.

Yeah Mike the engine does sounds incredible and the way it revs is unbelievable so quick and smooth and the classic RB bark when it hits boost always makes me smile every time i drive it. Mark at Godzilla Motorsport has out done himself on this engine it is truly one awesome bit of gear and that's why he is Australia's quickest, top work i give him two thumbs up lol thumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's some more progress pics, parachute bracket is made just has to be TIG welded up and painted looks pretty good. The new dry sump tank arrived and is nearly completed, came up pretty good, not a lot of room but we made it work. Now she is all legal for ANDRA just waiting for the license paperwork to come back then its time to burn some rubber and go get ourselves a 9sec slip.

Update time

After our last drag meet, Andra decided to let us run flat out providing we put a Kevlar blanket on the Tranny (one time offer) then after that we must comply with the new Andra rule book and make a 6mm steel scatter shield for the flywheel. So at the moment he engine and box have been dropped out getting some more and improved mods and some more go fast bits (but i will keep them secret for now). We have nearly achieved our goal with the 19 inch Advans, 10.1sec @ 141mph with 1.5sec 60ft., the 60ft is the surprising part as you would normally get them times on 16 or 17 mickey thompson's ET's . Had a fairly big headwind that night and the track conditions were slippery will try for a 9 sec on the 19's later on. Next time we go out we will be running the 17 inch Enkei RPF1's with the 275 Mickey Thompson ET's. and will push for a low 9sec. Tested the parachute out, works like a treat very happy with the way it performs, definitely need it now as we are nearly pushing 150mph.

Here's some pics and vids, my favorite one is the 4th gear burnout puts the local falcodore's to shame, can do a awesome skid look out powerskid comp at Powercruise the N1 is coming to make lots of smoke.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
