Thanks for the great shots Chris.

I noticed your Bayside Blue GTR only ran the first courses then was noticeably missing. Looks like either camber wear or the tyres chunked out cause there's lots of tread on them otherwise. Bugger! Well, come out for the next Texi and give it a go again. Your car looked really good out there.

I dont think the BMW had enough body roll :P If my 33 is a boat then that surely was a cruise ship :P but was good to see the variety. It had some serious tires on it to.

Make a note next texi there will be a matte black 32 gtst with a purple cage ripping skids ;) CANT WAIT!

Thanks for great photos Chris, got some really nice photos of my car on there! :worship:

As with all Texi's, i'm not pictured. ;op

only 1 set posted so far, I'm sure some others would have got ya. how about the video i took on your camera?

a big thanks to everyone who organised this event and helped out, had a great day as usual.

now to sort out my power steering issues!!!

Also keep an eye out for pic's at https://www.facebook.com/ScottSterlingPhotography

I'm going to upload all the vids today!

I just get sadface when there aren't any full-res pics of my car... but as you say, "yet".

Steve, in about an hour my first video will be up and you'll be happy I think.

Will post the link as soon as vimeo does it's thing. Love'n this new camera!

Geoff drew my attention to the slo-mo vid. 24 seconds in, thanks! =-D

yet?

what car were you driving?

#36, and you're probably right... just not "yet".

Part of me wants me to bring my camera and tripod and do photos all day, but the more selfish part of me wants to do skids all day and not worry about my equipment. ;o)

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • 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
