Just a note for any of you that are interested. Keir Wilson is running his R32GTR against the best street style V8s on offer at Heathcote Raceway this weekend. Its a first time in a long time that this car has been in Victoria to race, so some of you might want to have a look. He hopes for some strong 8 second passes.

Got there pretty late, around 2pm. As i walk pass these huts where i change spark plugs after a run and stuffs, i walked pass the GTR, i proudly told my mate that this GTR is gonna make those LS1 boys have a second though about their car.

Got to the stand, sat there watching these LS1 roaring pass ( most took their zorst off ), kept waiting to see the GTR but NO, so i decided to walk to there make myself look stupid and ask them if the GTR is gonna run today and i think it was Keir himself told us that the box has gone so i push the GTR into the container already.

Oh well maybe next time, i'm keen skyline man LOL.

they still use the hollinger , they also fixed that issue last i herd, quote from Hpi issue 40

"it was a simple non load bearing part of the selector mechanism that would fracture and select 2 gears at once , obviously when this ocurred the resulting failure was catastrophic, now we have engineered our own fix with a billet selector arangement,

they then went on 2 say that if anyone else with gtrs has this problem they are more than willing 2 help out and supply parts.

also a os giken gearset would have no chance with keir wilson power levels,

, the os giken still has shifting issues aswell, such as the stock gearbox, the os giken gear set still has a mismatched 3rd gear....

      Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
