Giving the old girl some love now that the gtr is out of my hair for a bit!

[MoMnDadGTR]

Lol very car related this is how my brain goes when my gtr is away.

[MoMnDadGTR]

so i had no idea that i need solid state relays with my fuel pumps so this was my issue the whole time with relays getting hot and pumps dying. ive now going to run these 100 Amp DC Solid State Relay with Heat Sink (windandsolar.com) thanks bk yet again.

Aftermarket industries do a solid state relay kit that has the fuse and etc built into it

Yeah I dunno about that one with PWM use though, no heatsink. Ok for just on / off control I guess.

hey ben do you know which heat sinks i need to order for the haltech relays. and when i do attach them do i use an adhesive with screws or do i just screw er down to a heat sink? cheers mate

[BK]

They screw in, and ideally use computer CPU thermal paste between. Just look up on eBay for a SSR heat sink in the shape shown. It'll probably be from China if you can't get one locally.

Boom, I actually found some locally at a solar place for wind towers! Thanks again for all your help Ben.

Just fricken Sunk her with 30k of weight on the back. Lucky when your stuck with a skid steer on the back your really never stuck. Had to jump the skid steer off the trailer because ramps couldn’t open up it was so sunk lol. A day in my life actually quite normal lol

Well much to my surprise the car made over 400whp at 14 psi. We literally did one pull and we noticed a boost leak in the Mac valve so need a new one then will try again tomorrow. I couldn’t believe it made 400 already with no timing at all, pump gas, and we didn’t even rev it past 7500.  So e85 tomorrow I jus don’t know how far to pay it being the stock motor still. My long block is almost complete but want to see what the stocker can handle. I was thinking 23 psi on e85 and 17psi on shell v power 91 octane. Cheers mates finally got to have some fun with the car again. Rb power! Thanks to Ben (bk) again for all the help throughout the roller coster!

I’d rather have my scratched up warn out r32 over any other whip out there. Even tho she has tried to kill me many times now and has cost me every dollar I’ve ever made and then some. I still know the  old girl will always be a warrior for me after a day of cutting trees.  I don’t even have words why something so average and essentially worthless(can’t take it to the grave) makes me so happy. Family first and I don’t believe in idolizing metal or anything other than  god and family. but dam I sure do enjoy fixing and learning things that may be old news to most about the old gtr.  

[MoMnDadGTR]

The crazy Canadians at it again, the prp trigger Picked up 40whp on install. Cars running so good figured just be done with it and enjoy it at the power it’s at. 580whp done with it for now!

[MoMnDadGTR]

Let there be light he said....and there was light! Beauty day at the old barn today. 

[MoMnDadGTR]

We didn’t want to push the car any further. 600whp on a stock rb26. 

[MoMnDadGTR]

My wife and son are amazing individuals. Combined together it creates an experience for me that doesn’t seem real. I sometimes find myself just staring at them enjoying car meets and the people that have been brought to us from cars and I wonder how I got so lucky. She can handle a triple plate exedy at 500hp already lol. What a mate

I think your little lad is trying to tell you that the beemer might have a slight leak.

Bah!

BMW's don't leak.

[MoMnDadGTR]

Just been a beauty lately in the old gtr, we got it up to 25 psi now so who knows what it’s making for power but I’m damn impressed for this stock block. Last dynoed at 580 on 23 psi. Good pull in the short video below

[MoMnDadGTR]

Nothing like a nice 260km pull to start the morning🤟
