I was up there for the Sunday Hillclimb - the skylines looked (and sounded) great

From my vantage point they were just flying in comparison to most (if not all) others

Who had the fastest time for the day?

What were the GTR's averaging roughly?

We didn't get a time sheet for the Sunday because we just left before the presentation.

They should be up on the BLCC website in the next couple of days...

I suspect the VL Sports Sedan had the quickest time as he took quickest outright in the Supersprint. Greg's White R32 GTR from Autosport Engineering took 3rd outright and 1st in class in the supersprint as well.

A friend of mine was up there in his Black S3 RX7 and he did a 52 on the hillclimb and he was MOVING.

no worries mate :D it's a BLOODY nice bonnet.. Have a look at how the plastic re-inforcing is all glued properly all the way round instead of being tacked on. That's the main difference in quality compared to the others. Also gives it strength

Greg's White R32 GTR from Autosport Engineering took 3rd outright and 1st in class in the supersprint as well.

And Greg's GTR is up for sale,,,.Chance for someone to buy a missile. I spoke to him today and he picked up a 3rd trophy,,,2nd for the weekend.

Neil.

Sounds like I should have gone.

How many cars and how many runs do you get in a day?

Got a link for the times?

The boys got about 4 runs in the supersprint and 3 runs in the hillclimb. I'd say there were around 80 to 100 cars throughout the day... It's a great event!

The times should be posted on the BLCC website soon. www.blcc.com.au

I'm glad I made the trip down from Brissy. That was an awesome weekend of racing around parts of Mt Panorama! And good to meet a couple of guys from SAU. The PowerPlay guys had some really nice cars, and I'm sure they'll get quicker as they get some more comps under their belts. And that Stagea looked so tuff!

We actually got 5 runs on Saturday's Supersprint and 4 runs on Sunday's Hillclimb. That was just an amazing piece of road! Boosted Zed, if you're thinking about entering next year, I'd definitely recommend it - the grin factor of running flat out around the mountain is unbeatable!

There were some quick Skylines down there! Bruce's Black 32 GTR (#111) and Greg's white 32 GTR (#696) were simply ballistic! Nice guys too. They completely outgunned me on Conrod, but I managed to even it out with a class win and 3rd outright on Sunday's Hillclimb :) It came as a pretty big surprise as I wasn't even top 10 on Saturday!

Hey SW20-GT, did you happen to get any pics of my car (#32) ?

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
