Picture I took this morning with all the covers on. Still need to order a new radiator shroud though.

Also one of those radiator deflector thingos to cover up the horns and A/C fan etc :)

Stop being a lazy fkr and come pick it up :)

Yeah, ill get there!. Time has not been on my side! Grr.

Question for you Nick. Where is your GT PRO set to? Mines at Medium and it's one aggressive mofo. I may need to back it off a tad.

I need to find an ARC one. Not a fan of homo carbon crap.

I was trying to get an ARC one originally but come across my Alloy one on Ebay randomly! Was already sprayed black too :woot:

Black... The new... Shiney? Lol

I remember when first speaking to Alex @ Plazmaman about 3 years ago and i was ordering the stealth kit and he said that Black was to be the new Chrome :P Its Black Bling!

Id have to check with the boys that installed it, im not too sure

Not when you are talking about the cosmetic stock looking finish! When you pop the bonnet and look down it look a bit average without it! He has gone so far with the presentation it might as well be finished off properly ;)

question, how does the air get to the air box intake if you block the airs path from the grill with the radiator guide ?

You can see the big gap in mine so it would still flow plenty of air... Although I haven't worked out a snorkel setup for mine as I wasn't clever enough to use a stock airbox :(

Oh yeah, scrap that idea!

Im sure brad at profab would be able to fab one up out of sheet ally and in corporate a funnel to the air intake from the front grill.

Then just paint it or powder coat it the new shiney lol.

:yes:

Mine had a shield/guide but it also had a 100mm hole in the guard with some NACA duct tubbing from under the air filter shield to the front grill, plus there is a heap of air voids around the front headlight to allow air to flow inside the air box if it has a opening on the front side behind the headlights.

No good for the ARC box I believe though, but good for a enclosed pod set up.

LOL, just saying.

Rightio. SO after 2 days of 11ty strings around and under the car, deflection gauges, tape measures, more strings, more measuring and even MORE STRINGS, I have a piece of paper with words and graphs. 7 pages of graphs and jargon that I hardly know what it meant.

From what I CAN gather from it. I will need to purchase a roll centre adjuster setup for the front. the HICAS lockout bar needs to be moved up 10ish mm to help eliminate bump steer in the rear. (Design fault possibly). The shocks will be Bilstien with a PSS9 body - That's where the similarity will end. From then on its all Dejan's specs. His valving, gas, spring and oil combo. People may laugh, but the spring rate in these will be about 20 KG/mm BUT it will be very pleasant on the street. They will be height adjustable and damper adjustable.

A little bit of testing and these will be available for R33 GTR's as a bolt in kit.

    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
