hey all!

ok heres the situation.

were filming a short movie for my mate's film project at uni.

in this movie, there are R31 skylines. lol.

we need someone who has a (factory as possible) WHITE ADM R31 to use as a car to shoot the sequences with, as we already have a white R31 we are going to drive into a tree for one sequence tonight

so if anyone owns or knows someone who owns a White R31 and will be freewithin 3 weeks to help us film, please let me know!

i know its short notice, blame Drew. hahaha.

THERE IS A REWARD!

the person who is kind enough to lend us such vehicle will have there choice of either

A) a good nick, running RB30E engine (with the auto box attached if you wish) or

the set of 14 inch wheels that are on the R31 that is due for demolition. they arent too bad, and have great tread!

so let me know what you can muster up!

if you have a mate that has a car that fits the description, let me know :huh:

cheers!

Will.

^^^^ There is so much win in that post :huh:

Wish I had more notice, I'd love to come and help destroy said 31.

In any case, I would help you out, but my 31 is a grey 2 door import.

Maybe try posting here: http://motamota.r31skylineclub.com/index.php?board=31.0

We only have about half a dozen active members left in QLD, but nearly all of them have a white aus spec except me. Do you need an S2 or S3?

Also, I'd love to see a copy of this when its done :D

haha cheers smity :D

im pretty sure there will be a copy going up on youtube when its all complete. remind me to link you.

the crash scene has now been performed, and was pretty cool hahaha.

i was gonna post it up on R31skylineclub but feared there would be a million flaming keyboard warriors that would talk shit. you know what i mean :down:

for the record, it was a series 3, but will take anything thats going, and try to keep the front end from being seen hahaha.

Good man :down:

dissapoint I couldn't be there, but can't wait for the video.

Keep it to the QLD section and you should be OK, I'll spank anyone who flames you. I think most will find it just as amusing as I do anyway :mad:.

The rear end is a little different too, but not as noticable as the front I guess.

Why didn't you just film all your other scenes before destroying the car? Not road registered I guess?

I have such a car. It is a bit beaten up but it would be an honour to feature in the film. If you want a better looking one for your film I won't be offended lol :D

You could use a spare RB30 too :/

smity, we had to film the crash scene first coz it was the only time the stunt drivers were available, plus having no rego didnt help either haha.

beelzebub, thats pretty much exactly what we are after! ill send you a PM and will let the boys know.

thanks for that man!

Will.

    • Por que no los dos? At least my euro brawler is reliable - unlike the JDMs I've had. Sheraaz you look familiar, did you ever come to an SAU VIC meet aaaaaages ago?
    • Drove to Cape Schanck to try to get a nice clear southern view over the ocean to see the lights a couple of days ago... instead got crappy cloud cover. Photo of a diorama of Hong Kong street scene. Taken on an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
