Hey now, I distinctly remember knocking a 400+awkw GTR out of the battles with a sub 150rwkw Supra! Unsure who was driving but that at least has to be a mark of shame on the NSW wall.

That's funny I remember a NSW supra (stock auto) knocking out a VIC supra the time before last...

:D

The mark of "spew" at the dinner table will never be surpassed

In the end a supra which everyone calls a boat took out 2nd overall ahead of any other GTR...so "TEH GTR CAN LOSE"...if only occasionally...hehehe...

*Double flame suit on!!*

This thread needs more sh!t talking!!

All I know is I'm trying to work out how to get another liter and an extra turbo under the bonnet....

I'm thinking sub200kw just not enough to catch some of u guys..

LOL...I do have 3 litres but I only have 1 turbo martin...and its a pretty small one too...for a 2J...

I did some numbers the other day and if i didn't end up with a 1 x WD, and 2x 4WD helli sessions, my scorecard would've had a top 10 easy.

But fk that, 4WD helli's are much more entertaining, as is smoke pouring outta the air vents for 5mins afterwards.

I can't wait to go upto a mates "bogan" DECA as well call it where it's just blown V8's doing summernats style burnout displays... I'll show em what 4WD helli's are about :D

sounding like a true race driver there Ash.

- if i had AO50's

- if i had another 50rwkw

- if i had more experience

- if the sun was higher in the sky

- if the air pressure was higher

- if i hate eaten lamb instead of pork last night

lol ash, so if you didn't get lost you would have done better?

Not a chance that i "wouldnt' have gotten lost. I dont have the brain functionality to remember some of those maps LOL

I was destined for WD's and DNF's :D

Nah not true. Maybe on long wang but that's it. 200 is a good number that you could prob get with your setup and that's definitely enough.

I'm not to surprised about that to be honest, alot of the gtr's and evo's got beaten by 'lesser' cars. I was actually quicker on the skidpan then most of the 'better'' cars. Its not the car but more the driver that'll determine how good your times are, you could put the stig in a fwd diesel golf and he would still be quicker then all of us haha.

Over a 30-40 second run though there really isn't "that" much of an advantage for any car really.

Just comes down to going the right way, not hitting cones for the most part.

One cone can send you from top 5 to outside the top 10, same for a WD/DNF

Nah not true. Maybe on long wang but that's it. 200 is a good number that you could prob get with your setup and that's definitely enough.

Yeah the LW is def noticable.

and I cannot believe the difference suspension set-up made since the last outing..(roughly the same HP as then)

But I recon 220-230 in something like mine would be about perfect. maybe cut a little weight out as well..(that's from me not the car..)

Plus a diff that locked properly would be nice as well..

that said the car is def faster then me I just have to learn to drive it to it's limits!

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
