hmm link works for me. Results are on their home page rather than their 'Results' page at this stage.

Isn't the other Skyline in your group a GTST? if so, it shouldn't be in SV, its not 4wd... or was there another GTR there on the day?

Yeah the grey R32 was GTSt that guy was telling me all sorts "it can go off the clock, I've had it to 360km's per hour". I was a bit like :P

Pretty sure I was the only GTR there! Aww there webpage isnt working for me...

He didn't do too badly considering he was a 2wd in a 4wd class, there is approx 3-4 seconds between my GTR and GTST at the SDMA hillclimb at Fairbairn. According to the results, your GTR did 33.51 and the GTST did 34.42

SDMA would have put the GTST into Type 2 and if there were mods Type 3. I'll have to read the supp regs and try to work out why SV for the GTST.

Yep he did really well, was good off the line too :D They didn't put my third/last run down on results which was a 32.96, I got given the post it note when I finished my run :blink:

Are you pumped for the hillclimb??

I wish I was entered, but have a skidpan day on :(

Sat up almost all night last night with my truck packed ready to go... but the rain just wouldn't break :)

So went to the skid pan/back track on Sutton road instead for some training with Dereck at 5th Gear.

Yes true, but I would have liked to have a better look at the track before the Australian Hillclimb Championships which is the next event there.

GTSTs are in SV D as they are a low volume import. not sold in australia in full volume. it's ironic that 32 GTRs can run in type 2 etc as they were sold here by nissan, but a GTST or silvia is automatically in SV.

Hmmm I guess different clubs have different regulations - have a look at SDMA (my local club) where they only put the GTRs in SV because of 4wd and they put the GTST in Type 2, which is only fair, my little GTST couldn't compete with the GTRS and if she were heavily modded, she would need to go in type 3.

http://www.sdmahillclimb.com/ then click on highlighted text in the body of the home page "types and classes"

I was running one in each class for a while.

Why don't we get more of you guys down for this?

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
