new challenge.

both of you have to beat my 1:18 flat time i posted on my drift car or you're both f**king soft, AND you owe me a night out on the piss :P

back straight is a killer for the GTR... having followed it several times (while distroying the GTR reputation mind you) i noticed its un stable as hell. hopefully the addition of a rear wing will give it some extra stability.

Like most cars, the GT-R only gets taily around there if you back off. If your 1:18 is hand timed BS, then feel free to strap a transponder to it and beat us both in the Time Attack....let's see who wimps out now... :nyaanyaa:

bah if you softcocks cant beat adam allans improved production lap record in ya gtr's you should leave them on the trailer lol

LAP RECORDS - MallalaImproved Production, Adam Allan (Datsun). 01:16.2. 22/08/1998 and it still stands atm i think

Adam's done a fair few more laps around there than I have, tyres make a big difference in these situations, as does weight (or lack of). That's an awesome time, but my only target is to beat Luke, not set track records ;)

Handbags at dawn :action-smiley-069:

Hahaha indeed! Are you guys bringing cars out for it? If not, enter NOW.

+1 with tangles comment.

i wouldn't let anyone drive my car at the track - let alone to beat my own personal records etc.

Luke has guts/trust/big balls for letting the Chef fang his car

By that theory I shouldn't have thrown him the keys to my Evo when I first got it either...

Luke knows me well enough to know that that 1) I can steer reasonably well, 2) I'm never gonna drive so stupid that I'm gonna bend it (I'm a dad, I want to come home to my kids at the end of the day) and 3) if I break something and it's my fault, I'll pay for it.

I wonder if Chef agrees with this :P

Dreamin'

:whistling:

Love your work!

Don't get yourself into the deep end Mr Chef Man, 1:18, timed, WITH transponder. I was there, it happened :P

motive dvd 11 has teh proofs :P

lukes GTR was taily around that corner backing off or not... and he wasnt backing off lol i should know i was chasing it down. theres gopro footage somewhere of it. its where the wing comes in its own. My wing on max rake was able to firmly plant the rear and keep it stable as where as with no wing it would get loose as.

I think the loser should also wear a skirt for the rest of the day..

Gonna be hard...

Chef has experience..

Heslo has what is left of his youth...

I'm putting up an iced coffee for the winner.

Just to have another question thown into the ring...

What sort of mods does the 33 have??

Is it capable of making some of these times posted?

I have absolutely no idea and dont pretend i do, but i will go Chef with a 1:19:02 only because of the "its not my car" factor

GOOD LUCK FELLAS!!! Please post some pics up as up here in Roxby i dont get much exposure to 1.my beautiful 32 GTR and 2. The Skyline scene...

Cheers :cheers:

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
