Awesome looking forward to this!

Although go easy, last time I went the flamin mongrels from work slammed me into the wall at high speed. Practically had the steering wheel embedded into my chest and for days after I was stiff as a board and felt like I'd been in a car accident!

sorry kingo = kingston hotel/ pub

kat are you sure it wasn't caused by a lack of awd that you have become custom too? :) preivous events with the supra guys have had no major inccidents and the guys there are pretty good at making sure no one is being pushed over their limits or deliberately taken out. anyone playing unsafe wont be racing again or in any other events for that matter.

there might be possible rain on sunday which means slower times and more drifting haha

Haha I'm sure that it was the second corner outside (where the guys running it can't see) and I was completely on my breaks and I had 2 people push me at full speed into the wall! They boys at work were pretty rough!!

natett,

I'm working on sunday, but i may be able to join in. i wont know until sunday morning though. So if i dont show i'll let DriftGTS (James) know and we can talk about a refund....

fingers crossed i'll be right though....

Well that was great fun! wet at the start so drifting was the flavor of the 1st session, but then it dried out which led the way to an SAU victory! Reece set the fastest time with a 32.4 closely followed by myself with a 32.5 then one the supra guys managed a 32.6 and James rounded out the top 4 with a 32.7. those who missed out, missed some great fun....

Thanks to natett and the supra guys for organising it. i know i'll be attending more supra club events if the invite gets extended our way again!

    • 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
