Yeah I seen his build years back what he is selling it for is pretty cheap for what he wants.

Budget would be what ever the parts costs can build engine tune it on the dyno weld up a cage and do all the work

The problem is anything quick in Time Attack wont be legal to run in IPRA or Prod Sports or Targa tas etc

anything turbo in IPRA costs Squillions to even make the top 10 of a state round.

If you ask me I can't justify spending $200k on a car that will be used once a year and needs the likes of John Boston/Tarzan Yamada to be driven quick.

But if thats what you want then an EVO is the only real choice for time attack stuff (you don't want to know how much has been spent on the Cusco WRX)

The more I look into it following the trend with an evo seems to be the only option to tick all boxes.

Even if you didn't race the car in ipra the car would be built for it.

Did some research on increasing a 4g63 capacity and found some nice info on bringing them out to 2.6 with a BC kit and a 4g64 block.

Evo 5 are pretty cheap these days as well.

Yeah it's a bit disappointing the cusco wrx and it's numbers.

Will have to upgrade the dyno to awd tho with an evo

What about an S-Chassis with AWD. Say S14 with GTR running gear!

Didn't FullRace build one in the USA for time attack? Interesting to hear how it went against EVO's and the like.

Just as heavy as a GTR

Then go full house S-Chassis with SR23VET simliar to Scorch S15.

I still think it didn't go close to it's potential at this years event. Plenty more to come and was fastest Nissan there.

Added piccy cause everyone loves looking at hot nissan racecars!!!

If you want to be competitive in Superlap, you need to get this idea completely out of your head, unless you're thinking of Clubsprint class.

Hard to take you seriously if you think that's a good idea, if you want AWD it makes sense in every way to stay with a factory AWD.

Well the rules say, "must retain standard shock tower", says nothing about using them.

Seriously, I'm curious as to what the prize money for winning Superlap/WTAC is outright?

Would it be more than winning an Aust. Champ Sports Sedan Championship? Do they have prize money?

Do sports sedans even have prize money State or National level?

Maybe it's for no money, and just for the glory....

I'm also starting to lean to an S chassis as well considering how well they went as well.

The main thing would be to try get it nice and low in its curb weight and enough power.

Would like to run a vh45 in it been in the process of building a sc kit with a m122 would give nice low down drive out and if what people are saying they weigh they are about 150 pounds lighter then an RB if the weights are correct

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
