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

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
