and its still stuggling to get any decent power :rofl:

Its so hard to listen to these whale songs... gives me a headache.

*sigh*

More power than you Mr extra 1/2 litre :)

Don't believe me? Come on down and SHOW me biaaaaatch :Bang:

Nengun reakons next Friday for my coils, so It'll be touch and go if I can beat a stocker (I'm loving 1/2 throttle).

Also, my car may not even run as it looks like we'll have WELL over our limit of cars wanting a run... and like I said I'm there every f$%^&ng week.

camma and other travlers get spots reserved of course.

Have some larger V8's comming for fun :rofl:

Well, to be honest I don't know... but Squealy's GTR put out 260 rwkws on a cranky day.

My car will splutter its way to 190ish rwkws, although it still can't do it on the road without new coils (soon as its boosts over 12 -14 psi, it dies... Nenguns have had a hold up)

ARM85 may make 120 rwkws if he is lucky... he he he

Ummm... there is a GT30 equiped VL turbo I'd expect would make some power. Plus a lot of the usual V8's and stuff (out here everyone loves their commonwores).. That said last night I had a real struggle getting past a falcon (EB-ED 1993ish)... it had some balls :D

Hopeing that Stolly will bring his R33 GTR, apparently is got some big nuts.

Top day Anthony, thanks for organising it. I rattled off 184rwkw from the 4 cylinder but with a few boost problem sorted I should be able to squeeze a little more out of it. It was good to meet a couple of the SAU lads. See you at the next one!

What were some of the other results that I missed?

Thanks for making the trip Camma!

The standout was the Maroon VL Turbo with the huge GT30 hi mount. It had to be re straped three times :burnout: and made 1333.8 NM of tourque... and 270kws :P

Ummm, other than that there were some standout shi%^ers, including the R33 running nos hacking its way to 120kws, the Yellow NAT VL which claimed 200rwkw prior to the day, and rolled 141.

Had a stocker VX S pac comp at the end, with 114 and 122 kws.

Fun day though, next one will be a lot bigger - with promo girls and stuff. Will keep you all posted on that one.

No no no gents

120rwkws - turbo with nos shot. Its sounded like a sick dog though, claimed there was more in it and HP didn't know how to use a dyno.

It sounded like it was missing, backfiring and running rich and lean all at the same time.

Yesterday another Skyline who wouldn't run on the day came in (N/A), young guy.

Ran 113rwkws - which is pretty good I thought, nice and smooth too.. Told him he should've entered, really neat car too.

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
