cheers ay, What other goodies u got?

If you need any more weight saving, let me know mate.

I have plenty of other dry carbon parts for the R32 ^_^

It would be good to see this beast rip down the quarter mile again.

Hi Guys here is a few pics of whats been going on the last few days, made up custom 4" titanium dump pipe into twin 4" side exhaust and 2" screamer into 4" tip to make it look like the others. ALL OUT OF TITANIUM looks amazing!!!!

also -20 Braided radiator hosing getting done today and most of the -10 fuel lines are done.

Car is looking great. I wish I could find a supplier for the titanium when I did my exhaust.

Will be great to see what it can do after the weight loss.

cheers ay, What other goodies u got?

Shoot me a pm later on if you need to loose more weight but pretty much anything you can think of ^__^

It gives me great pleasure to announce that we are the New World Record holder for Fastest H-pattern Street Tyred GTR on the planet.

We decided to head to Benaraby Dragway for the weekend for Round 3 of the CQDRA Championship to give the GTR a run. This is its first run since blowing the gearbox up at last years Jamboree in Sept. Now I really wanna give the guys and gals and Benaraby Raceway a huge wrap for the awesome event they held and the support they gave our car was unbelievable. The track condition was perfect, best I have seen if not better than Willowbank. They are doing a terrific job out there spending a lot a dollars to get that place up to spec. Great Job keep up the good work. ;)

Before I go into too much detail. I got to give our Main Man Mr Mark Jacobsen from Godzilla Motorsport a huge thank you, for all he has done for us, his support and knowledge has been unbelievable without his over the phone support last night this would never have been possible without him. Proud to part of the Godzilla Motorsport Team. Secondly another huge thank you to Dave Sheehy at CPV Tuning, for his continual help for the team, his valuable knowledge and input helped us immensely.

Ok to the runs, we not only broke Theo Woollett's previous World record 8.95sec @ 159 Mph which has stood for over 6yrs put we managed to back I up 4 times in a row, completely smashing it out of the ball park.

1st pass - 8.91 sec @ 152Mph with a 1.33 sec 60ft

2nd pass - 8.65 sec @ 150Mph with a 1.23 sec 60ft

3rd pass - 8.59 sec @ 152Mph with a 1.27 sec 60ft

4th pass - 8.52 sec @ 162mph with a 1.30 sec 60ft

Car is running the following combo:

Tyres - Mickey Thompson E/T Street Radials 275/45 R17's all round

Gearbox - Full PPG Billet 5 Speed Dogbox (Same as Theo's)

Engine- Was running Approx 1100 + HP at Flywheel

Fuel - E85 Sucrogen

Here is the pic of the golden ticket

Here is a quick vid of the 8.59 run will post more vids soon:

Hi Guys,

Went to Benaraby with our new setup and run some very very quick times, This GTR is now the Fastest H pattern GTR in the world on Radial Tyres with a time of 8.52secs at 162MPH, we broke the record 4 times with the other runs being 8.91, 8.65, 8.59 and 8.52. The car done some very impressive 60 foot times as low as 1.23, 1.27 and 1.30 on the final run. Big Thanks to Mark Jacobson from Godzilla Motorsport for advice and tunning over the phone last night. Definitely the smartest man when it comes to RB engines. Here is a video of my 8.59 getting very loose haha

:wub:

thanks mate, even with twin chutes I was standing on the carbon brakes that hard they all started glowing bright orange. One of the officials thought my car was on fire hahaha na just the brake rotors mate!!!

Congrats mate. Really great to see the new result. Well done Matt!

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
