Thats a big ask... I REALLY WANNA SEE IT NOW...

whats it gonna be, drag/track/targa/street car??

remembering that Rickards has run an 11.06 on his old setup,

I was thinking the same thing. To throw a cat amongst the pigeons, Max Griffith's HR31 being substantially lighter than most GT-Rs, and with 383kw at the treads - I wonder what would happen if they stuck big slicks on that and ran it down the quarter? Rear end squat could be a big problem, but if it could hook up at all it would have to run a good time.

Yeah its a big call but when you see the car and its running gear i think you will understand why it was said.

My understanding is that the car came from one of the car companies in Japan and it was a demo car that they had built to show what they are capable of doing.

Now the car has been dyno'd in Melbourne i believe and the figures were similar to Ma'x R31 but the new owner (jedinathan's old man) is having the car changed back to GTR 4wd, which in my book is a wise move with this car if all the stories of it are true.

Would be very interested in seeing them both run the 1/4 and what times they would get and that goes for any other import doing the block these days that has a bit of work done to it. Just take Rickards's car for example, one very tidy import that has had the right mods done and producing some very impressive figures.

:cheers:

I have had a good look at it actually, and I wasn't saying it won't be the goods.

I have no doubt it should be right up there. Lets wait and see what it does.

Ok found some info on the car

The details are as follows:

• This car is (or was) the primary demo car for Yanack Racing in Japan

• Travelled an elapsed 77K klms since manufacture, it has travelled less than 8K klms since an extensive and meticulous rebuild at huge cost to the former owners.

• HKS 2. 7L stroker (8000Km),

• Trust TD07 turbine (1000Km),

• HKS F-Con V professional,ORC twin plate clutch (1000Km),

• OS Giken fast cross transmission (1000Km)

• Tomei 2-way diff,

• Brand new YANACK Racing widebody styling and GT wing ( bodykit worth $10K by itself),

• 7 point roll bar,

• TRUST Oil Cooler ( new),

• HKS boost gage,oil temperature gauge,oil pressure gauge, fuel pressure indicator and exhaust gas temperature indicator,

• oil catch tank,

• Yanack recently spent almost $70K AUD modifying & tuning this car, not including the costs of cosmetics.

• Car is suggested to be close to 600BHP ( 335rwKw) at 1.6bar, but this will be confirmed when dynoed upon landing.

haha he obviously couldn't help himself!

Now in regards to being on the road - it's not yet. The best part ofcourse is to try and get it registered with all the gear on the car...which unfortunately wont be in time for drift mania.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
