Steve Jones pilots Anthony Scali's ND4SPD R32 for the 1000m top speed win on the second last run of the day. Breaking the 300KM/h barrier to the tune of 306KM/h.

ND4SPD R32 GT-R 306 KM/h - 2014 Racewars 1000m

The record at the Temora 1000 is 312KPH so who knows what next year will bring :D The ITP supra was looking VERY strong, hitting 290+ after pretty much taxi-ing to the halfway point. If he can get the power down there are big numbers in it's future!

It was a great weekend, full results are available here and a full playlist of videos including the supra run off here.

Being kept very hush hush, seems the setup changed from what it was last time. It's twin turbo on a something engine, likely 2.8+, and something like 900 wheel or 1300 crank horsepower. PPG 5 speed dog box also apparently.

Some discussion going on about it at Antilag. I doubt we'll get too many details sadly :(

Car was built by Anthony Scali, previously famous for working at Xspeed (now defunct). Car was around years ago 2004-2006 but has changed engine setups at least a couple of times.

Looked like a fun day!

    • Yeah it is always worth testing and balancing actuators out of the box, just set the pressure regulator on a compressor very low (eg 5 psi) and increase it slowly to see when they both move.....unfortunately while you may be able to adjust the length of the actuator rod to minimise any difference, the actual pressure they move from is not adjustable so you need a well matched pair. And yes, the VCAM is probably contributing; the earlier in the rev range they come on boost and the slower the revs build (I think your demo was in 5th), the more you notice it.  Driving at WOT through 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc you will probably never hear it as any shuffling starts and is over super quickly
    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
