I can't say I've seen any unregistered cars there, but yeh, cages/stripped sure. Mine and Chris's but two examples...... hope they give you a fair go, if for no other reason that I don't wish to be slapped around by a daily driven Supra on raod rubber! lol

A lowly Supra would not get near the GTSt! Just strip more weight out of it since you cant throw more power at it. :(

haha, trust you Roy :D

Harry's close to me in his Supra, there's only .2 seconds in it :)

I can tell you there's nothing left in mine as it stands now unfortunately. Lakeside is a very high average speed track and my little jigger just lacks in the power stakes. It's pretty awesome on the picks now though and still very quick in early and mid corner (even on these very old 02g's that haven't worn an ounce in 300 track klms). Hopefully I can get everything sorted out for the 21st and see if I can better my best :)

Well done Noel! :(

Roy... not bloody much!

The allowed to do list is short, basically;

Turbo back exhaust.

Fuel system now free.

ECU/boost control free.

Not allowed list is long.

No 'cooler upgrade.

No camor gear change.

No air intake change.

No turbo change.

Nothing internal.

Basically, NA guys can go to town, turbos are limited. And probably rightly so for a more level playing field.

doesn't really worry me if they don't let the 1200 run - i'll just have to get a clown suit and do one of their race meetings instead!

And I wouldn't mind another go in the Supra anyway - I think I can go a bit quicker yet. go a bit harder under the bridge and can work on being very smooth onto the front straight - easy to loose time there on cheapo Federals! maybe there's a tenth or two in hungry and the first half of the carousel as well. and I've got a brand new LHR tyre after Oran Park too - it's just gotta be faster! lol

Time atack at QR this morning and a new sprint pb for the old man. The wheelchair carried me to a string of 58 second lap times with a best of 58.4.

Happy old man. :D:mad:

Geez...Noel no stuffing around with posting that up!! Ha ha congratulations and keep those times coming down :D good to see :D

kenoath!

huge contrats Noel!

I'm sure there is more left in it with teh straight line power it has!

well done mate.

:) just got off the phone with the QR officials. my Datsun is not going to be allowed at this Lakeside event, it's strictly road cars only, so I'll be back in the Supra for another go!

I'll have to wait till after the resurfacing and do a TopGear race meeting to get the Datsun onto Lakeside aparently. their reasoning is fair enough.

Well done Noel! :)

So NA can have a few ccs snuck in? Even so, i am betting an NA RB20 woudl be no bad thing. But the torque of the turbo engine is going to help on road rallies

So the fact that the R32 was released as as R32 GTS25 with an RB25DE doesnt allow you to run that engine. I am sure there are cars out there that have been built up from another spec of vehicle, GTR an dN1 comes to mind. So if you are allowed to go an NA RB25, throw a bucket load of compression, multi throddle bofdies and the thing would sound wild, great throttle response and make more power then you are making at the moment.

Oh, but hand on, do NA engines have the same cam etc restrictions as forced induction?

New Pb for me at Sandown today - 1.21.5 and on a damp track - very happy with the "Mark and Duncan ATTESSA controller" - first time I've really used it in the wet on the track and it works a treat on the "6" setting.

Car Make and Model: 1994 Nissan R32 GTR (N1)

Lap time: 57.55 (QR - Sprint)

Modifications

Power: 298kw

Tyres: 18" : RE55s SR2

Suspension: Apexi N1 professional

Brakes: Alcon 4 pot, 350mm, Ferrodo DS3000 Pads

done a little while back, forgot to add to this thread.

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
