This is a long shot....

But a couple our clients asked us to ask on their behalf for reserve entries.

1 x R34 GTR

1 x R35 GTR

All I can do is but ask :down:

To the rest of you guys, spend all your effort and monies working on the very best braking package you can for the day. Brakes are 100% critical at Mallala and need serious application to get 'in the zone'. Having 'lots' of experience at Mallala with Nissan brakes we are more than happy to lend some advice to anyone with questions :huh:

Krishy, how long did it take to recieve these lines from uk? And are they defently stainless stell or tin wrapped?
UK!? The Braided Lines Krishy linked, come from Queensland, i ordered a Set on 17-03-2010...sent payment, haven't been posted yet :huh: . My guess is they are making them up, so should be posted sometime next week.

I got mine within 5 days or so from QLD........to me it looks and feels likie stainless steel....and it is most certainly ADR approved as well as it has a lifetime warranty as well....you get a warranty card that you can sell with the car to the new owner as well :down:

is there a gasket? mine doesnt have one, granted its a different engine.

there is a little metal gasket that foes between the IC pipe and the stock bov.......its meant to stop any leaks

D stirls

are u sure 300zx is the same as r32?

the pistons themselves are 50buks each on trade price.

and full seal kit front and back is just under 200.

all the other pistons are fine, just 4 have rust on the hard chrome.

im getting QFM A1RM's all round for the ca brakes, they will be fine with that, ill just have to take it easy for a bit then do a hot lap and then a couple laps at a slower pace etc etc. u reccon 1 set of those will last the day???

and any1 kno anywhere cheap to get wheel studs? cheapest i could get em on trade price was 10buks each :s

adrian the qfm a1rm's from what i have heard will last you a whole track day.....get some decent brake fluid in and do a full flush etc and should be pretty sweet......another thing you might wanna have a look at is getting some braided brake lines mate......

i am for this track day running qfm a1rm's with penrite sin 600 brake fluid and HEL braided brake lines.....lets see how they go on the track....

I'd run some ducting to the front brakes if i was you, heat is your enemy on small brakes. The quicker you can cool them before the next corner the better they will be. If you overheat them to much those pads wont last long at all.

this is my ducting.

I'm 110% sure.

The Pistons and Seals are the same for R32, Z32 and R33 (just the diameter of the rotor and the caliper offset is different with the R33), as well as others.

A1rm's and fluid - bought.

HEL lines - bought.

slotted rotors - bought.

plazmaman pro series IC and plenum kit - bought.

new pirelli's - bought.

kit to be installed - next week.

tune - booked in next week.

Brakes to be installed - after tune.

car trailer - still be organised.

who knows if I will I be able to run my car with no back seat with seat belts still remaining?

You can pretty much run your car however you like. No scrutinering at practice/private days. I'd recomend a fire extingusher though.

    • 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. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
