  1. I don't notice any NVH from any of the arms/joints. Actually you would be surprised how standard feeling the car feels, when I took it over the pits the guys there said it was so docile plus it's really quiet with the jasma cat back. The loudest thing now days is the fuel pump Its got the Trust extension, extended pickup and welded baffle that the kit comes with. Alignment is pretty neutral, lots of front camber and castor, average rear camber and everything else fairly much neutral
  2. Some videos from last time out
  3. 61.68 long track now
  4. Don't you start, I have half the WASCC having strokes about it
  5. I have RB26 rocker covers, mines baffles, a very effective catch can and -16 from the covers to the can... Still have issues, I get around 300ml going into the catch can every 60 odd sec lap
  6. All good. I dont care what anyone says your not an asshole :-P
  7. Can I please get this topic moved to the Motorsport Builds section http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/412073-r32-gtr-the-final-build/
  8. Inspired by your research the other day I ended up getting one of these... http://turbowerx.com/Scavenge_Pumps/page1/page1.html I'll let you know how it goes, going to run it from my catch can around the back of the block and into rear turbo drain. Switch it on about 5000rpm or so. I'll let you know how it goes Wonder why you have fooked the motor? Were you always running E85 or were you using 98RON?
  9. Another Speed Event Series and I managed to break my own lap record again and win the class so happy days... My oil solution didn't work so back to the drawing board Also finally remember to weigh the thing and it's this much without driver and 1/3 of a tank. Not light but not the worst for a GTR in full trim
  10. Can get Vipec to do the same, I think my revs are always above 5000rpm during a lap, the boost as a condition is a good idea as well
  11. Also, question regarding pumps like this... Says it pumps 1-2 gallons per minute, realistically I need mine to pump about 300ml per minute so how do they run if they are getting starved or low flow while running? Does it chew them out or are they happy with being lubed by the engine oil?
  12. I have been looking into similar options because it is a pain in the ass every session draining the oil from the catch can... Was looking at the VDO pumps but didn't like them because hose end fittings, those ones look much better... Interesting
  13. Finally in Armadale (First in WA) and for those not in WA, Armadale is a shit hole at the end of the earth haha Anyway I got some, tested in test tube for about 88% ethanol, Dave tested with a Zeitronix and got E80. It's normal for the test tubes to read high yes?
  14. 44mm at least but it really does also depend on boost/power you are planning
  15. So a medium single then
  16. Track day Saturday 13th of July, will know then! I got a little worried as there are reports the rear turbo oil drain vents a bit of oil as well (hence the fitting facing the baffles in the rocker cover rather than going in at 90deg and pushing into the crossover pipe or straight into the catch can).
  17. Hopefully will help me as well! How do you seal the line over the dipstick, simple hose clamp? I have no issues in a straight line (even 0-1000m drags), on the dyno or on the road but at the track it does get close to out of control.
  18. Koyo rad is installed and I've been playing around with the oiling system to try and alleviate the oil building up in the catch can at the track. Been thinking about a lot of different options (without pulling out the engine) and came up with the following Rear turbo oil drain connected by dash 10 line to the rear cam cover fitting to vent the crankcase Dipstick has a dash 8 line to a fitting welded onto the catch can to vent the crankcase The theory is that the crankcase being pressurised is stopping the factory oil drains from working correctly, these vents (should) release that pressure allowing for oil to flow back faster and thus not getting stuck in the head and pushed into the catch can. Fingers crossed it works
  19. Ok I finally got around to getting mine sorted. Rear turbo oil drain (unused due to single turbo) plumbed into rear rocker cover fitting using dash 10 lines with a bit of gold tape to protect from manifold radiant heat and a dash 8 line plumbing from the dipstick to the catch can (getting fitting welded onto the catch can on Saturday). Fingers crossed it works well
  20. I don't know if you have purchased the pump yet Gav but have you considered a Magnafuel? They don't need any PWM control and mine has not even got luke warm, let alone hot.
  21. By the time you spend all the money on gauges you could possibly be better off with a digital dash (depending on what ECU you are using)
  22. Nasty smash in that old green car! Where did that happen?
  23. Off line and behind the other car, I think it's fairly clear who is in the wrong. Not nice and the camera car driver needs to sort his attitude out, if you get blocked on a fast lap take your time pass the person on the next straight and then set up for a quick next lap.
