SAU Nickname: Duncan

Car Make and Model: R32 GTR n1

Circuit Name: Eastern Creek

Lap time: 1.50.77

Modifications

Engine: standard rb26. 12psi boost

Power: 235awkw

Suspension: zeal coilovers

Tyres: falken slicks 240/610/17

Brakes: g4 8 piston 330mm

Body weight: 1500kg

Finally got back into the top 10, the slicks were brilliant, probably 1 second quicker than re55s and allowed 210 through turn 1 which was brilliant fun (just lift then turn in). It was 34o out there, and track temp was measured as 55 which would have hurt power (and tyres)

Car ran beautiful..until the drivers side caster rod broke when I hit the brakes for turn 2 @ about 220km/h. That's both sides broken now :O Only got about 15 laps in the end.

BTW I hear John has taken equal #1 spot on the Phillip Island list?

yeah, I think he was in the 47's or 48's. He had a massive lose coming onto the front straight, travelling about 200 meters on the grass at what had to be 180kmh. Good for him for keeping the boot in a driving out. Was behind him and it looked scary, but impressive.

Aren't we all glad Marcov doesn't post on here though. He was running 42's in his R32....

Makes us all look silly. John was in love with his car though. John even rang me this morning for Sams number as he wants to go visit him on the way home.

42's is insane... Where is Franky and JFK when we need them to come and play haha.

New PB for me even if it was on a laptimer... 1.49.82 backed up by a 1.49.88 the following lap. Don't know how I'll get into the 48's...

42's is pretty impressive those who have seen his car would know just how impressive it is. Bloddy fast and one of the best pressented without a doubt.

It isn't a street car though. There are three race track cars getting around now, Sam, JFK and Ivan, the chatty guy that loves to socialise.

Sam is leading the pack.

From what I know

1.42 for Sam

1.43 for JFK

1.44 for Ivan

On the full street trim scene,

Frank, 1.43

me, 1.45

Jack aka "The Stig" 1.46

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
