Hey all I read some contradicting information yesterday the cams manual (book) for 3D stated that the maximum engine capacity for a turbo multi valve engine was 2520cc but the online specs state 3529cc and do not mention anything about a different spec for multi valve engines.

Have the specs changed?

Also there is a multiplication factor for multi valve engines (1.3) and the 1.7 for forced induction.

Have cams removed the multi valve engine bit for sports sedans? Or do you still have to do the 1.3 x cc x 1.7 and it is not on the online specs.

Cheers,

Ryan

I've approached them about my F6 engined R34 skyline thats coming along. I've been told I'll be able to run it providing there is no objections from current competitors.

I'll tread carefully but seriously it's not going to do low 29's at the creek so they are safe in their dinosaur 6L Chevys for a while yet.

Just have to be cautious around ex taxi owners.... :P

They do eastern creek in 1:29's ????? wtf

absolutely, irs a shame more of the 3D cars don't take supersprints like the World Time Attck Challenge ™ more seriously. They could run 2-3 sec quicker on the right tyres for sure.

Remember lap records like "low 29s" only count when set in race setup, during a race. Not a single lap with no fuel on super cheater tyres.

Put a national level sports sedan on a super soft r comp tire even with their limited aero and it'll smack the shit out of the worlds precious time attack cars.

Why the hate. noone ever said they were the fastest cars on the planet. Time attack is simply another form of motorsport That a lot of pople on this forum and others enjoy immensely.

I bet a gt500 with r compound tyres would smack the shit outta those sports sedans too....oh wait. :rolleyes:

No hate here, I like time attack cars there is 4 of them in my workshop currently.

I just can't stand the hype about smashing v8 lap records blah blah.

How can you compare a tube chassied mid engine sports cars on slicks the size of 44 gallon drums to cars built on factory chassis runnig r type compound.

If they couldnt beat a time attack car they should hang their head in shame.

And either I am blind or the sports sedans I am thinkig of have more aero than a 747.

And Noel...don't forget "Time Attack" means something to you banana benders that is different to the rest of the country :P

I agree Duncan. We, along with parts of the usa and britain embraced the ethos of japanese time attack to a greater degree than the rest of the country as evident by the big dollar builds and the popularity of the time attack/sprint series we run up here.

So I'm guessing its all log booked now Rytech?

nice one :)

now AASA log book it too, and enter the next MRA in October...you too Brad.

and you too Druncan.

yep yep all good woohoo.

now just weighing up engine options as i want to stay aligned with the regs so it is an official legal SS blocker hehe

thanks for the info.

We have been running our R33 in Sports Sedan - state (NSW) for a couple of years, just competed at national event (breifly) at Eastern Creek, Shannons Round as Sports Sedan.

Qualified 4th in the wet - gear box lasted a lap and a half in the dry / another!!

State point score / class is based on times whereas national is based on full floor and have separate 4wd class - have had for quite some time.

Our taxi is 4 seconds quicker at EC on touring car control tyre, but ran out of bits to compete engine build for Shannons last week, if anyone has got a hollinger / GTR please PM

Cheers

Stuart

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
