Seen it today up close at the EC Powercruise.... Mmmm !!

Me and a mate were sitting at turn 1 watching cars on the dyno and we could hear it screaming up around turn 4, 5 and 6. Apparently their was some damage to the box tho?

Would have easily won todays 6 Cylinder Dyno Comp too by a country mile.

Making the car look like a 16yr olds gts-t was the last thing we wanted. It looks like a tough GTR minus the badging. Nothing more, nothing less.

Of course.. Anyone who knows their skylines can tell in two seconds its a GTR. Its the rest of the clueless general public that have no idea.. (which is basically everyone you see on the road who isnt in a skyline)

I'm just bitching about kids putting GTR kits on their cars, and polluting the image real GTR owners like you and I have. ;)

Theres nothing worse than pulling in somewhere in your GTR and some rotten kid coming up to you going "awww fully sick skyline man, how much did the body kit cost you? is that a real GTR?" :cheers:

You just have to drive down cavell at the gold coast for five minutes to see why the line between gts-ts with kits and real gtr's is becoming blurred in the general publics eye. Though it would be cool to see how much less or more attention you get by not having the GTR badge from the v8 bogans.

That said, those massive Volk Te37's look pretty intimidating :)

/rant over.

Stace - looks good :D  I think the front ride height needs to come down a bit though (or mayby mine is just too low! :D ) I'm not sold on the clear indicators...

That is some pretty impressive power you are producing!

The ride height is due to the DRAG SPEC suspension we are running, for normal road use HKS hyper dampers are normally in place. Power has increased to 467kw...WOW.

Yes Ben smashed 3rd gear coming up the rise out of turn 9.

BUT......

Fitted another box on Sat. to qualify for the dyno......to take second place in the finals and fourth overall.

Stace,

*embarassed*

After 3 months of wheel shopping for my r32 i've decided that te37's or lmgt4s are the only way to go!!

Those are gorgeous, did you buy them new? Who did you source them through? What size are they?

I post whore way too much to think before I press submit :D

Once my posts slow down you'll all know my car has finally arrived...

We got them from jimmi here on the forums, try j-plus for some more as he always has a good supply of rims coming in. They are 17x9...good for track use.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
