Want to run on E85, yes, and make 350rwkW on this turbo and push for more later in year.

Aero wise, fitted rear difusser and vortes generators ( varis or voltex, not sure, off an evo ) and will be making front splitter and some sideskirt changes before the event. Also made changes to suspension. Car is a 98 model. Bought it as stock road car 8 years a go!

Nice work Andrew looks very promising good luck matethumbsup.gif. I too know the feeling of a 3yr project as my R32 GTR took the same amount of time and I can't get the grin off my face every time I drive it, this video has inspired me to go all out of my 33 GTR now... time attack here I come.

Running shitty old R888s now. 255 front and 275 rear. For WTAC will run 235 front and 265 rear super soft Hankooks but will later modify gurds to fit 265 front and 295 rear.

Share your secret where you get the tyres from?

Why run 235s at WTAC when the car run fit 255s now? or do they scrub significantly?

nice one mate. 1:06 for a first test day is pretty rapid. should be very quick once dialled in. looks bloody quick for 270kw too. they must be real kw not the inflated kw everyone talks about...

hope it goes well for you at WTAC. :)

Show queen to track hack.

What was the inspiration for the change Andrew?

What?!! It was always a STREET car that looked good. It got thrashed hard!!

Too hard having a car like that on the road. A blown oil pump meant I pulled the engine out, then I decided to '"tidy" some things up and re-do things I wasn't happy with. One thing lead to another and BAM, a bare shell S14.

A track itch has been there for a while. Starting a new business and running it meant the build was a bit slow is all.

That and Time Attack is sick

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
