Well you wont have to worry your pretty selves about me anymore this will be the last post you will see from me on the qld forum. Too many Keyboard heros have inverse opinion of their self importance for my liking and I know of a few others with this opinion in fact at my 1st or 2nd meet up I was told this is the situation on this forum but had to see for myself. But to be fair I've met some very decent and helpful people on this forum and am glad that I have, its the usual story the few ruin it for the many.

Looks like it was a good day!

Spewing I couldnt make it either, car is running but waiting on a few other goodies so I can represent the old school 31's in style hehe :rofl:

Just out of interest, how long until the next dyno day, im hoping mine should be done in a month and ready for a dyno battle.

damn.. that's very impressive... any idea on mods?

its a nice figure yes, but at a guess, i would say stock car with n1 turbos and 1.2 bar.

i wish i could have come along and meet more sau guys up here in qld, but got caught up.

im sure i'll see alot more of you lot when my new car lands.

good pics.

:D

Thanks to all who organised the day it was great. Thanks to Mercury MS for the day as well, i didnt realise they had such a good setup! Good power from Dirk's almost stoke GTR!! I think Martin's 33 will pick up alot of power when he puts engine management back on and puts in a little boost. Dave's r33 Gtst sounds like its got a hell of a lot left in it if it was only boosting to 14psi!!

Yes '32 VSP' is my Blue GTR. It has travelled 3,500kms since the rebuild and its running 1.2bar with n1's. It has all the supporting gear to support about 20psi? but im not going to push it, thats HEAPS of power for what i use it for.......for now :wassup: . Maybe when the engine has bed'ed in some more i will push it?

If only it had got to 260awkw!! 259.2awkw is sooooooo close :wassup:

Cheers,

Francisco

comeon man, wind it up to 1.4 at least. u will get borred with only 1.2bar on n1's push it a litte more. 300awkw @ 1.4bar would be good to see.

im with Melv, push it a little more :)...although, I "pushed it a little more" at the track on wednesday 1.3bar and 450rwhp was the end of my bottom end though.....on the other hand I have a 25 and you have a 26, so I assume you can handle a little more. Find out.

Either way, nice cars and good results.

Yeah i think i will push it a little latter on, 1.3-1.4 should be achievable i would have thought....if i only run it down the quater etc.

it has forggies (arais), ACL race bearings, cometic metal HG 1.6mm, 750cc's, but only shot peened rods(weak link), all fully balanced etc.

Also the head is standard, but new/reco'ed head, not sure if that makes any difference to the amount of boost i can run??

i think it can handle it, but i dont want to blow it up!! cant afford another rebuild for a long time!! Matties tune is spot on from what i am told, and before i wind the boost up i will be changing the exhaust to a 3.5 system, as my current system has a cat and 2 x mufflers. $$ are a problem for a while though!

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • 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
