I saw a Stagea run an 11, that's a fast boat.

Hi Have you towed any of the race cars yet with the Stagea

Used your suggested suspension settings on my R33 track car's first outing....result very good, pretty neutral handling with good front end turn in. thanks

Good to hear, you need to fine tune the settings to your personal tastes, but it's a good place to start. As for Stagea towing, I haven't found a tow bar with enough capacity yet, still looking

Could get down there one day although more likely to go to Qld. Waiting for my custom trailer to be finished.

The boat is getting pumped even more. Found the valves were badly worn from too much boost and not enough valve spring pressure even though the springs were twice factoryspec. Now have Supertech .5mm oversized valves. Found Arias chrome rings not best for high temp and boost as they wore out, so going 40 thou oversized Ross pistons with full steel rings gas nitrided and proven in big boost drag cars. All cryogenic treated. Changing turbo's from S15 to Disco potato GT28RS 440hp each. Getting the exh housings high temp HPC coated and if have time will get comp housings extrusion honed. Should make 450rwkw with if anything a little more lag which won't hurt it. Might even get semi slicks on to keep things more honnest hey FATZ?

[fatz]

nice i like a challenge

sounds good

might have to change the brake pads to keep up

pride of 31, power rb will destroy zed boat

lol

[Boosted Zed]

Boat will eat your old old girl, but ten out of ten for your cheaky confidence. At least I know you are not just beer talk.

[fatz]

this tread should be r31 takes it to the boat

cause there doesnt seem to be any gtr that want to play

[Roy]

Put new motor in and new D2 suspension and went to Nissan Datsun Nationals Easter Sunday at Wakefield. Only got three runs on the full circuit and only managed a 1 min 9.48 although still fastest car on the day next fasted was a Dato 120y coupe FJ20 near 200rwkw 900kg 2 seconds slower. Heaps of zeds and a few Skylines and a R32 GTR. Got back and pulled motor out Tuesday to remove turbo's to get extrude honed and high temp coated and a few other minor changes then going back in next few weeks ready for our track day. Bring on your GTR's or GTS-T's.

PS more GTR parts as now has GTR bronze valve guides and valve stem seals. We measured and found the valve guides to be slightly shorter and protrude less into the ports so less restriction and proven on flow bench test.

hey john do you have any metal gtr headgskets around i blew mine...
