And you can't break traction in first gear, wtf? :wassup:

when i had 330rwkw i could :(

Denham, it was running 24 psi on 104 octane fuel.

There is a slight turbo issue with my car in that its slightly mis-matched and has a bit of surge down below, and much over 17-18psi it gets some detonation.

Not much i can do, but give it some good fuel and its a open slat. We didnt wind more boost in as i need some ignition.

thats next on the list if i want some more power on 104

Sunocorp 104 straight or % mixed in with 98??

If will start getting expensive if you have to run 104 for daily use :(

U have standard cams, head etc dont ya?

pure 104, had to be to get over the detonation problems on PULP due to the turbo

im not using it daily like that. lol. Im dropping back to under 300rwkw for normal driving. 330-360rwkw is useless.

We were seeing what we could do with the car for salon by have a play around with some things.

We found some more limitations on the hardware i have. We'll stuff more than 24psi into it once i get my ingition sorted (which is a long way away)

Race Pace Motorsport, the one and only place ill take my car from now on.

There is no-one decent around the west/north. I've been through many workshops who just have muppets working there who dont know enough to satisfy me taking my business there.

Race Pace is about a 45mins drive... to bayswater. But my car has been going there since mid last year.

Very thankful. Its worth the drive.

does anyone know what part number or serial number is stamped into a genuine gtr conrod? are all gtr rods created equal?

Sorry, my conrods went in 2 weeks ago - can't check for you. As far as I know, the R32 & R33 GTR conrods are the same size & strength. I can't give you a definite answer, as I was only told by a couple of engineers & 2 different sellers on the forums (can't remember their names), when I bought mine. I used R33 GTR conrods in my R33 GTS-T. Not sure about R34 GTR conrods.

Someone should soon post a 100% yes or no answer for you, I'm sure.

Cheers

Chris

can anyone recommend any good engine rebuilding workshops in or around epping victoria??? r31 nismoid youre from around this area, any ideas?

P.E.T Modifications are in thomastown and have built plenty of tough and big hp Nissan engines (VLs, Skylines, GTRs, etc).

Give dennis a call on 9464 4225 and tell him Gorjan (RS500) referred you.

they should be all the same from memory.

Put em next to an RB25DET rod and you can instantly see the difference.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
