Thanks again to Madaz for the NPC clutch he sourced a couple of weeks ago for me - its rad...

Picked the car up with the 33 S2 box and clutch fitted and did a hills run to wear it in. Have to get used to just how firm and precise it is but I finally have all my power going to the wheels.

Winning.

You'll love it ben. Try some hill starts in both forward gears and reverse. My pedal feel changed overnight about the 700 km mark.

Not a bad idea at all!

Also kudos to Shaun and Will at Boostworx for not only getting the job done on time, but they managed to come in under the price they quoted, in spite of having to do extra work. Great service!

^gotta like that! Is that still a five speed box or was that the first of the six speeders Dohmar??

Nah its a 5 speed. Series 2 R33 GTR box (dual synchros tho). Still have many KM to make the gearbox lube up and unlimber. Every gear was stiff when I first started driving but now 3rd and 4th are feeling normal, 1st, 2nd and reverse are getting there, just need to shift in and out of 5th for a bit as theres a lot of pressure when I move the shifter to the right. I'm sure it'll go away in a while (box was stripped and cleaned in many fluids I dont even know the name of and reassembled with martini mineral oil used for the gearbox (not that blue shockproof shite!)

Box had to get converted from pull to push, thankfully BW has done it a lot and they have their procedure down pat...

Inspiring conversation with Matty S this afternoon - you sir are indeed a champion !

Thanks ever so much mate. This world would be an amazing place if there were a few more decent beings like yourself around......

Hold your head high and be proud :cheers:

hope that helps a little.

yeah i was the fastest in it last (run) simulator event night

its as close to racing without being in a 100k+ race car

there is a weight limit of 90kg based on the seat actuators obviously he could put bigger in but then the build cost blows out

such a shame

thoughts are with Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi too........they must be equally as gutted having been involved in such an unfortunate accident. 2 motorsport deaths in a week, such a shame :(

who do u have to get ya misses to blow to have a shot :rolleyes:

RIP Simoncelli, one of the most exciting riders to watch this year. live footage is pretty upsetting

He will be certainly missed. Was very sad when I heard that in the news this morning :(

well i tried to run another full blown event but wasn't enough interest so i canned it

Hey I am keen anytime :D

I'm trying to fix my harness in properly and having some troubles. Anyone know where I can get or have made a 10 x 1.25 pitch eye bolt? Very much like the link following

I use Redline in Everything, the Blue smurf blood, shockproof isnt supposed to be used in gearboxes, unless specified(some front wheel drive cars ) , it will damage your synchros since it reduces friction so much the synchros smash . you need to use MTL or 90 weight Redline oil I dont know how many people dont listen to proper advice and blame a product for the failure.

call redline in oz, great people to deal with.

I use 140wt Smurf Blood in the aftermarket LSD. and it lowers the temp a lot and hooks up in a instant, way better then the nissan oil, or synpower crap.

and MTL on my trans,metal part of the shifter never even gets hot now. !!! and synchros dont clash as before , had synpower for a few hours before dumping that out

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
