Duncan in his r35 is in the 1.01's and so is Marek.

Stuart in his R33 has done a 1.03 AFAIK

Unsure if Mark Berry has taken the 34 down there yet, but the old 32 did 1.02 or 1.03 a while back.

Yeah Berry did a 62 in the 32 eons ago... and he hasn't had the 34 there. Even the 32 would be quite a lot faster not with the S6 and other improvements

J Appo and I both did low 60's in his weapon 33 GTS-t there in, ohh, 2002, but buggered if I still have the day's timesheets for that one. lol

Such a shame really that our ROYal highness hasn't been allowed to keep it up to date ;)

If those electric pink dildos with ass finding radar and SCADA control R35s can do 61 sec laps then there is no problem matching those times at Wakefield in the GTSt. Dont need shortcuts, just need a cute girl in short shorts and boob tube running up the length of the pit wall with my timign beacon shortening the track for me. Everyone will be so distracted by her athletic display along the pit wall that nobody will care she will be shortening the track by 300mtrs ;)

Mate, in my car I have never been near a 1:10 let alone a 1:01. :P Thats is seriously moving. Even with the circuit changes that seem to have dropped times a little, anything under a 1:04 is moving in my eyes! Wakefield is a good little test track, but does favour gadgetry more then some other flowing tracks.

The R35 (road cars, driven to and from thew track) are doing 1:00's and 1:01's now

But that is on slicks (swapped out at the track).

Anyone doing sub 60's on anything less than R's - would love to see / know how.

Have you any more info on this 33 GTS-t???? very interested to see it.

Pretty much the days prior to me having a digital camera, OR being computer savvy! lol

Basically, very stripped 33 GTS-t. Built RB26, twin Apexi low mounts, GTR gaurds. 18x10's, Slicks, big AP's, etc. Made about 400RWKW then had (yes I know I know) another 100 in giggle gas.

I'd like to know where that car is now!

I do have a vid of a 1:00.8 run - but you'll just tell me it all looks too easy :D

I would ... but truth is if it looks easy then the thing is being driven well. Its only when you are slapping the thing all over the road and it looks hard and but is actually probably slower .. but looks cool and impresses the kids :(

Here you go Roy

FYI i turned off the GPS assisted steering for that run.

Very nice, thanks.

I thought the GPS was for the fish finder? That is mega. When driving an R35 that quick, i appreciate to do that time the thing is quick everywhere. But does th edriving style differ much...it looks like you can carry a good wack of speed to the apex and with the grunt and response the thing has get on it after the thing is sorted in the corner and it lunges out of corners. It appears as though your entry speed is high....???? So, so scary quick for a road car

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
