yep your right Paul, i definately wasnt having traction issues with mine.

next time im going to run with less fuel, i had a full tank because i trailered my car there, gonna try under half a tank next time. and a few more little tricks

Hahaha none of those tricks here mate, sh!t tyres, full fuel tank, stereo playing aswel haha plus 110kg of driver :D

im keen for the next one, i really wanna beat that time, i heard that if his record is broken he will bring his car back to aus to win it back, and if i win it i will be there waiting for him so we can have a hill climb battle :D

is that when your doing a massive burnout and then they make you sit on the bench for 2 runs :rofl2:

not at the redneck hill climb event.

the current record is set by an evo lancer from europe that has won pikes peak, ran 23.88 and i ran 24.51 from memory or there abouts in my almost stock GTR

i cant believe you are 1/2 sec off the lap record...what model evo is this? any pics of it?

also, is the evo prupose built for this event or is it a porduction car with simple mods?

either way, you must be a very skillful driver!

Lol, something like that!! I just went "come on that's a skid, want me to show you a burnout?!" then on went the radio and I watched the others have their goes hahaha

If you take the record I'll be cheering!!! Paul is in the 24's, he needs grip and he's got it. Also Brett (not on here, White 32, stock motor, steel wheeled stock turbos, etc RE55's though) did a 25.3 I think, it was with 250rwkw lol, so yeah the old men know we will get there.

Better tell the evo guy to organise freight then ;)

Oh also, I'll get some decent rubber for the next one I'm in.

I may miss the next one due to mods being done to the hotside but I'll try. Either way, you know I'll be there to support you guys

Someone pinch Berry's 33 or 34 lol

Why bother, we all drive there, full interior, stereo and aircon. We are all in the top 30%, then drive home after in the same cars with no mechanical faults time after time.

It's great to see the faces when they realise these are true street cars.

haha you know it :D

the evo is purpose built.

i remember a few of the old guys asking how much GTR's are worth, they seem keen to get in the seat of one

Haha. Yeah. Those guys in pupose built hillclimb machines.... IE Twin engined crap, on slicks, areo. Yep we still beat them. Stipped out commo's with cages and slicks.... 2-3 seconds behind. The commentator reckons I have an auto box! What a loser!

FFS. We have to get that vid on here to show these guys what it's about!

Pitty we can't take passengers!

I'm on mobile (dinnertime), can you link it from Fb?

I'll try and find deano's video he did the first time

I just noticed how early he grabs 3rd!!!!

The only thing with my run from half way up is linked to my Facebook =(. Ill throw it up anyway

My FB

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
