Yeh, I aint big on maintenance and the thought of alloy nuts worries me so I run good olf fashioned steel nuts as well. Albeit pretty Rays ones :)

I'll one free by then, brisby's GTsT should be rolling again.

What, you have ripped the RB20 out for me :) Keen to take the old girl for a punt around Wakefield when I collect it. Will need to bring two rims up in the plane and get some semis in Sydney somewhere.

Cheryl has now been semi retired, most of my focus is on the Radical. I have two planned events for the old girl though so she's not getting off being thrashed again. Saturday night at Bathu

So it turns out that is indeed what happened, and as Mel is not taking up racing and nor is their only child Lizzy the Great Dane, I am tidying the car up for sale.   As far as I can tell it is p

Update time, I've actually finished installing the Radicals rear spoiler on to the Skyline, what a fun job on your own getting it exactly in the middle and correct front to back. At full adjusted heig

about bloody time you got some decent nuts.

wheels are on and off a race car so often, and they are so damn cheap that there is no excuse for difficult to use, unmatched ones. I hope you bought 5 spares for races that need a wheel change.

any other progress on this old girl?

What ever ya whinging bitch and no I only bought 4 spares.

I must say though tiger I have a new appreciation for my pit-crews work at Wakefield.

I had to remove and fix a little problem with my rear shocks,,,what a pain in the f**king-arse. Roll cages,,,seats and rear top shock mounts in R33's don't mix.

Cheers

It's been ages since an update,,,Cheryl is now competing in the NSW hillclimb championships and quite frankly she's loads of fun. While I'm not used to running last in my class,,,I'm having a ball and getting quicker all the time.

Here's some pics of her engine oil cooler install.

Looks good Neil and up to your usual standard of being very tidy with the hose work.

I was of the opinion that you were going dry sump - is that still the case or are you just going for a larger volume with baffles like us?

So long as at the end of the day, you've got a smile ear to ear, and some other monkey to change your shocks, then that's all that matters! Right? :P

I'm quite jealous of this car really. Such a basic engine setup, decent suspension and stripped and it just looks so fun out there on the track!!!

Thanks Charles,,,it turned out very nice,,,yep I will be dry sumping Cheryl sometime,,,just not now. The old race budget has been taking a hammering lately so most stuff including tarmac rallys are on hold. The bloody Falcon shitbox died on the way to Wakie a while ago so we had to buy something else and this time it had to be a Nissan,,,hence...

Matt,,,I'm having a ball running the hillclimb champs,,,we've done 5 rounds (including heaps of practice) and she's still running great. Sell all that V8 rubbish and come back from the dark side.

Cheers

just wanted to say that what Neil has done with this car is really impressive.

It is neither big $$$ nor big HP, but it has been doing a heap of racing and has been super reliable.

There may not be 10x posts a day about it, but you can be sure cherryl is out there and being thrashed regularly which is a great thing.

:thumbsup: to you, and to Evil Chris for that matter as well....you guys are doing 1% of the talking but 90% of the racing around here. Hope to join you one day!

I'll be doing another year of hillclimbing mate. Enjoy MRA

Cheers

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
