  1. $4500 with the new engine fitted.
  2. Fluid Handling Solutions in Rydalmere.
  3. awesome work Bolle...great vid also.
  4. Dean i have an s13 silvia factory 5 speed you may be interested in...its very tidy and straight and has never been drifted. Currently building a Red R Racing engine for it...come up and have a look if your keen. Its complied and registered as a bonus so you can drive to events if you wish.
  5. Simple...arrange to hire the dyno from the owner and fly Mark up for the day. This is how we get him to tune our cars down here. Maybe organise another car to get done as well and share the cost between you and them.
  6. Yes Dunc's...two vehicles collided...two lives lost and one other seriously injured, two other vehicles were also involved in a minor role and both drivers of those vehicles were uninjured. As a mark of respect and at the request of his fiancee and family could discussion of the accident details be left till police investigation is completed. Thanks
  7. quite often being in the drivers seat in Twoogle requires a little fondle.
  8. Dave drives the street/circuit car like a demon...with over 600hp at all 4...still going strong.
  9. It is with deep regret that we must part with the news that respected UK tuner and GTR UK forum community member, Rob G (affectionately known as Tweenierob) passed away earlier today after being involved in a fatal car accident. Rob was the director of TR Racing in the UK and campaigns the 'Gaiijin' 8 second GTR driven by Mick Begley We have also learnt that his business partner Harry (known on GTR UK as Lamb) is currently in hospital receiving treatment - his condition is as yet unknown. Red R Racing wish to pass on our condolences to all concerned.
  10. No...Tony Wedlock...TRD Aurion its called now, its a bit hard to get the Solara name out of my head. Its the ex Matt Scranton car from the states. It runs a V88 Vi-PEC with the 18 injectors squirting methanol, twin M&W drag 6 cdi's, M&W coils and an AEM wideband controller. Mark actually did the initial tune on his chassis dyno and further tuning was done after each run at the strip using the data from the logs. Running a methanol car on a chassis dyno in an enclosed environment was no fun...it took days for my eyes to recover.
  11. Mark and i installed a Vi-PEC in Tony Wedlock's Solara drag car its has 18 x 1600cc injectors and runs 6.6's. I run a Vi-pec ecu in our 9.45 sec GTR street/drag car as well as our street/circuit GTR. Both of these cars are tuned by Mark Jacobsen at Godzilla Motorsport....simply awesome results.
  12. someone tied a large thick cable tie around his balancer pulley...it was hitting the timing cover causing the noise.
  13. $100 tells me i can hear Noel telling you to get off the net and get your ass back in the engine room assembling 3 x RB26's. I win!
  14. metalurgy yes...but have you taken into account the cross section of each item. Id say we may be getting $2.50 each.
  15. its unfortuately the fact you have no idea of the life the new engine had before you recieved it that has to be considered.
  16. Id go to the extra expense of properly balancing the engine and running an ATI balancer than forking out $2500 on an N1. Im yet to crack an 05U thats been properly built. But everone has different ideas i suppose.
  17. yes ive heard about the copied blocks...didn't consider the N1 pumps though. Now that i have a product i know i can rely on i will never buy another N1 pump.
  18. second set of rods = $200 resizing them $120 ARP rod bolts $120 the look on someones face when you make 467AWKW and run countless low 10's with them....priceless i honestly doubt spool chinese rods would be stronger than stockers.
  19. most people in aust use the Vi-PEC plug-in ecu's in the R33's. http://www.vi-pec.com/page_files/pluginecu.htm see JPC in Melbourne
  20. ring Steve Burchart at BMS...he is the Jatco master.
