Amazing build thread.

Would love to get a build done in similar fashion to this one down the track for my S15 once I'm out of uni and have a well-paid job.

John Skola seems like a genius, it's a shame this is the last build he is doing.

don't see it there, sorry

you mean there's a window for each runner that exits from the billet collector and into 2 'wastegate collectors', and then from the 2 wastegate collectors into each wastegate?

Each runner has a waste hole. Spilt pulse billet collector each side has three hole that exit through one waste gate same for the other side. The three holes total the area of one gate. The exit of the gate is then vented in the dump as a Venturi

You seem to have blind faith in johns ability to engineer the car, it's almost religious...

You keep comparing to f1, rally and indy car racing with their research and development, with the costs and success that come from it.

But realistically you are carrying out research and manufacture. You come up with a idea, think it's the best, tell everyone it's the best without even testing it.

The reason why the motorsport teams get things so right is because they get so many things wrong and then head back to the drawing board, I just hope for your sake you spent all this money on something that works first time!

I have to agree with you mate. And personally, I think action speaks louder than words. Lets see when this project gets done and put it to the real world and see how it does will prove more than anything. Put it in WTAC against some of the best EVOs and s2000 and rx7 out there. Or take it to japan and run it against MINES R34 GTR as that is said to be the ultimate response machine. The real world will judge where this car stands :)

Yes the ultimate result will be in action and events and even a personal run in the car 8).

Wtac is going to be one of the events I'd like to enter. And want to race it down the quarter also.

Awesome Bobby, you spending the weekend there? Or just there for the show on Sunday? Hopefully see you over the next few weeks :)

Yeh I remember talking to you about boxes before.

U have gone so far and done some amazing things engineering wise so you may aswell top it all off with a great box aswell.

Should bring out the best of the set up.

Thats CHEATING!

For some reason I thought you were going with a 2.8lt. Not 3lt. Unless your planning on running a 2.8 crank with SR20 rods as a high deck... Doubt that though, its hard to beat displacement.

Hey Ian .

No it's not the 3L it's the os88 os giken sequential gearbox.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
