Right there is too much car for me to drive :)

Roy the one you are interested in only has about half the power of this one!

You also need to be a contortionist to get in and out of the car

They turned the boost up for that run too as it had new tyres.

Glad it forced the leading cars to turn their wicks up too, so we could see their true potential and their absolute awesomeness.

im loving the new style wing mounts. off the back bumper then up and out. ive seen a few cars on speed hunters using them.

well areo works but it seems most aussie people profer a million horse power before putting a wing on. Thats not in anyway directed towards people at SL more so drawing from my own circuit experiences.

that's incorrect the head did have larger valves and was provided by notars racing and the car actually made more power than it ever has just an FYI

Errr, those times were done with what tires? are we comparing apples with oranges? Mark Skaife did what Qualifying with super soft compounds??

Cyber evo had an issue with the head on friday, they used a standard head with what im been told standard valves but with cams and gears and was down 120hp'ish or more.

Even so Tarzan wanted to crack sub 1.30 but the rear wing came off.

Wasn't donut king ex v8 supercar?

If those cars are so fast then superlap should send an invitation for next years.

Just got home. Amazing event. Seeing these iconic cars up close, then at full blast is still etched in my brain.

Was going through my vids, and i noticed something interesting. During the final open class session, i went to turn 12, to film, and the Cyber Evo, Cusco/Tomei WRX, Sierra Sierra Evo and Panspeed RX7 took a wide, slingshot line through the final turn, whereas the BSM GTR and Hi-Octane GTR clipped the apex (didn't capture the others).

I may have skimmed a few posts, so not sure if this has been mentioned already or not..

I'm inspired. I'll check with the bank tomorrow to see if i can build me a Panspeed RX7 replica! :)

Interesting, i also heard is it was down ~120hp due to a standard head. Got that from one of the top competitors as well...

I love how i now have about the slowest GTSt getting around! You will need a 20G, Plazmaman plenum and E85 for next year. Usable 275rwkws would be nice! :P Shoudl have racked soem fresh tyres for the last session :P

Next year I'm hoping for for a usable 300kw's and some more rubber. I could really used some of the 265 goodness outside the top team garages :)

I'm still shaking from ODing on Wicked energy drinks :-)

Those drinks were out of control! Too many of them for sure.

I don't know what issues you two have between eachother nor do I care but I do want to clear up the original head gasket failed due to the head stud between 4 & 5 pulling from the block. The fellow on the Nitto stand, Andrew I think it was, was most helpful in tracking down our requirement.

So what are you on about champ?

Stevo has lately enjoyed putting the slipper into Nitto...I said he should take the oportunity to visit the Nitto stand as Andrew and Jim would have been keen to discuss any issues he may have had/seen with the product line. Steve-o then infoms me he was not attending Superlap...but actually does go on both days and doesn't bother to take the initiative to possibly further his knowledge.

bit strange?

was good to see the Berry car using the Nitto h/g as i have been most impressed with the quality of the product and most particular their headgaskets. I said some time ago on another thread that these h/g's were in my opinion the best money could buy. Paul (Superjet760) had all sorts of issues with his 30/26 blowing headgaskets...since he switched to Nitto they have not has 1 issue.

That is actually what im "on about"

I dont want it to turn into a he said she said deal, but I can 100% tell you the head was not stock and also stood there as the translator for the team told Marty that the where interested in buying the head due to the car making more power. So big points to the Notaras team for showing the japs the way.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
