That centre console looks hot, did you have to customise the wiring or did you get a harness made up?

I bought a ready made harness out of Japan. Was a bit of a rip-off but it made it easy. As for the bootlid, I am not sure. I dont think it did. I have two bootlids, one plain and one with the modded R34 GTR wing. Not sure when pounting the wing whether the bolt holes need to be modified, but just looking at where the posts are I would bet a large sum of money the wholes are different

Took the car out for a wrap at DECA over the weekend. With the gate back to atmo and tune leaned on a bit more I am making 274rwkws at 21psi on 100RON, about 255 on 98RON.

One thing I really need to get on to this week is installing the Stoptech front brakes as the car is pretty lively in the rear with the std fronts back on the car :)

And a bit of a moment ...

I have some 700cc injectors to go in. But first want to understand if the plenum helps things, and then try another set of baby cams. With all that done then hopefully a more regular supply of E85 will be available. This is still my daily driver so availability of fuel is important

The car does really like the 100RON fuel, and atmo gate... it picks up a bit everywhere..

Next to go on now will be the plenum and then Tomei cams

Nice!

Guess that solves the mystery of loss of response with the 6boost manifold :P

f**k mate you are not having a good run. cams no good. the bloody sard rail I flogged you no good and the super fancy 6 boost mani still not as good as the trust one was. hope you still have the trust...

Car looks good as always. and f**k me dead as if we need brisby to have any more power than 275rwkw. that is about 200 more than you need you clown!

Oh well, was told years ago not to mess with it, I had stumbled onto a freakishly good setup for an RB20. But I am an idiot and like to tinker. So new IC, manifold, gate etc sees me with more or less the same power :) (probably still a tad less)

...oh, and as for everything being good in the world? Well, the car is back to trying to kill me which is fun. But bloody Belgium have gone quiet when i expected news by the end of last week so :thumbsup:

the count/bris alliance needs one of us here to hold the fort here in aus and garage the cars and one in proximity to ring and spa. tell them this is important business and pull their fingers out. lol. they are probably down the cas trying to win the bloddy toaster in the badge draw prize pool.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
