there was a guy running around with a road registered car painted up like this in SE QLD a couple of years ago claiming it was the Bathurst 12hr car. I never had a close look, but it seemd a bit ratty from a quick glance. Does he have the CAMS log book? without that there is no proof its the actual car. A weathered 1993 CAMS sticker and blanked off holes in the bootlid for a dry break system are all its got. If it was in the complete race trim, it might be worth that much to the right buyer, but it seems to be back in road trim apart from the paint and cage.

edit: and why would you send a production race engine back to Japan??? and wouldn't they have run the car in N1 spec? this has none of the N1 body pieces. I had a quick google but didn't turn up any pics/video from 93

Harry has sparked up my old man memory!

If it's correct it's not the actual race car but rather the promotional car. You know, the car that sits out the front of the retail shops in the sun to look cool.

I do remember as a young impressionable trainspotter seeing pictures of the race car in magazines and noting that this car (that was often parked right near my work) was slightly different in details.

Sorry for the hijack - just cross threading here :)

Want a Heli-coil? :)

i think sydneykid was talking about this car a while ago. as it was australian production, it wasn't allowed to run N1 spec. But if it dosn't have a log book it's nothing more than a painted up gtr, with a average cage.

It was advertised on here. Nice car, i woudl love it, but to me its not worth anything. Even if it was the Bathurst 12hr car...it got its ass handed to it, i recall it broke during the race...and the following year the Falken money went to Carlind who was running a Maserati Shamal. So nto to say its not an interesting car, or cool, but it doesnt seem to have history...so is just another ex race car which to means its worth less then a nice road going example that is actually quick.

But i sincerely wish the seller all the best selling it...but he may struggle asking that sort of money

Don't worry about that one. What about this?

http://ecurieinvestments.com.au/996-gt2r-slm-porsche

Would be interested to finding out who / where this was made, considering its not a genuine PSI GT2R. The interior pics look very familiar to my mates GT2R's that he has. Engine spec lists are also sounding a bit familiar will have to try and dig up some old emails.

Oh and good luck getting it homologated anywhere outside of a state series. And one with 600Hp will struggle getting in there too.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
