I'd love to but I've been told that I'll only get a couple of laps without an oil cooler, and not much more with an oil cooler. Not sure that I'd want to pay money when I can only push it hard half the time.

It would be good to go with a group of newbies though, don't want to make an ass of myself while running with the big boys. :D

Hey wat the? a couple of lapz without a oil cooler? :)

Oh anyone like to provide more details?

I would love to come... Did a performance drive last monday which was great. Had 4 sessions on the QR full track which was excellent. Car is still stock (have a SAFC2 untuned) and reached 180km/h on back straight and 170km/h front straight. Could go on for hours, la la la.... (have some footage, soon to be in MPG format).

Want to do it again....

BUT.....

Thats the day my first kid is due into the world. I think I would be shot if I went. Would be good to see Melv's car on the track. Would have been interesting to see it up against the 911 GT3 that was there.

Oh well, maybe next time.

im keen as but i cant arrange it as im still a virgin at this stuff

so if anyone wants to brake me in im keen to get out to there.

We used to all meet up earlier and cruise into Q.R. a bit before lunch 11ish I think. You just got to fill out some details to get your Q.R. recreational license then pay for your laps and then get into it. If we all put SAU on the top of our form they will group us together aswell. Looks very cool when you have a grid full of Skylines.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
