Yeah it was..........I spun out on the corner after pit exit on my 3rd lap I think it was.

Had no idea you spun...remember overtaking a very clean original looking GTR - was in the old' fella's Gold GTR... you were playing with something in the car at the time

Would have been the helmet rolling around in the passenger footwell lol. Should prob let this thread get back to what it was originally about lol

***IMPORTANT NOTICE*** - in past years, people have wanted to pay on the day, and in fact some people have just turned up on the day hoping they can enter too. This creates MASSIVE headaches for us with paperwork (and causes traffic jams while we try and sort everything out). IF YOU WANT/NEED TO ENTER/PAY ON THE DAY, THE COST WILL BE $25. Just giving you fair warning so you don't argue the toss on the day.

It is, but it doesn't stop people turning up on the day wanting to get in. In the end, we're trying to raise money for charity, so we make the call on the day as to whether or not it's worthy, then say hi or bye accordingly. But the same people are doing it every year, and it's getting annoying, hence the decision to charge more and try and discourage people from working outside the processes we've put in place.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
