2:07.9 is the fastest from a v8 supercar.... nice effort as the v8 super car runs slicks and there budget is higher!

you mean 2:06.8 by Murph 5 years ago or whenever it was?

a 7.9 might just get you into the top 10 these days...

as they should be. massive budget, many years of ongoing development, best drivers in the country...

not taking anything away from these times. that's crazy fast! as it the top speed! how good would it be to see the 34 wooshing past the V8s down Conrod?

Incredible effort. Well done to the giant boys.

Doesnt it make you wonder Just how far above the rest of the pack the gtr would be if it had the unbroken years of development thats been poured into the family cars. :P

Since the ATTESSA is all a about hissy fits rip that diff and guff out and go RWD! Actually with the power of that thing i think its best you suss out the AWD! Didnt the R33 have a similar problem last year? Is it that the transfer case just cant play ball at those powers, needs coolers ???

haha good work guys....shame mark is such a pussy behind the wheel otherwise you might have got a good result.

don't worry about the super taxis with an extra 20 years of development...what was the group A GTR's best time around there? that car had the best of everything - preparation, development, and the 2 best drivers going around back then.

awesome! simply awesome. :wave:

I have a present for you mark too. :(

and russ nothing for you cause you didn't come first. hehe. ok, I'll find a consolation prize for you.

think of a car that started out as a used, 10 year old, stock 34 GTR road car. was then lovingly built mostly by mark and russ and their friends and family with specialist help and bits where needed and it's now pulling 320km/h down conrod (and holding together mind you, no 1 lap grenade engine with 5 spares in the pantec.....) and running such great times at tracks all round the country. and it was built with their own money, hardwork, and sweat. As I told mark the first time I saw it all together it's pretty much the coolest GTR I have EVER seen and I've seen all the fancy ass ones in japan etc too from saurus, to mines, to m-speed and none of them put mark and russ's car in the shade. that's for damn sure.

well done again. I only wish I was there!

Berry's time was despite some issues with fuel and various. I saw all his runs - just f'kn awsome.

Makes my own effort (R32 GTR 2:41.4734 - only 0:27.7654 off the pace) seem a bit average. However I went in wanting to better 2:50 so I was happy. The car ran well with the only dramas being heat today (oil temp, and air temps) and a failing power steering pump. I had to do qualifying yesterday WITHOUT power steering - I did 5 laps and managed a 2:47. I was pretty rooted afterwards - could not imagine lasting much longer.

I went to the 2 day Drive Bathurst event last year (familiarisation; unlimited speed runs, NO timing) and did the Sprint this year.

All in all a top event and I reckon I'll be back next year (with better oil cooling, 4WD controller, lose some weight {me and the car}, ........). I've got 2:30 something firmly in the sights!

good to see you getting out there in my old humble 32. hope she's still treating you well mate. it was such a neat car when I owned it so hopefully it will keep on trucking. :wave: pretty good pace you are cracking too and mighty close to a 30 which is very respectable pace in anyones book. oil cooling is always a big one for GTRs. what are you running now?

haha good work guys....shame mark is such a pussy behind the wheel otherwise you might have got a good result.

don't worry about the super taxis with an extra 20 years of development...what was the group A GTR's best time around there? that car had the best of everything - preparation, development, and the 2 best drivers going around back then.

was it not somewhere around the 2m 15sec reigon. Skaife set a lap record at 2m 15.46 not sure if it ever went quicker than that though.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
