Went to No limits last night ... had a great night, good people it all flowed well and a good decent amount of laps. Car ran faultlessly and improved my times second time out on long track and first time at short track yielded a 64.2 long and 55.62 - respectable and getting there obvious improvement with better tyres but also my driving came along a bit but still heaps to learn and be nice to get those times into 63's and 54's eventually also for interest sake I weighed the car at barbs, surprisingly still heavy being 1270kg... this is with about 35L of fuel and full race trim ie: 2 seats etc but goes to show even taking a heap out shows how much you put back in with cages and all the 'go fast' bits Im pretty sure I can get 30kg out of it easily ie: passenger seat out, door trims and frp boot and about another 20kg with lighter rims and a few other things like that without going full chop shop which I dont want to do If I stop breaking this so often the racing funds might be able to accomidate some of the above if I can just be spending $$ on tyres and fuel and not fixing it so often

track car or street ?? mines track car

pretty sure they are just the normal r32 ones you can get for the gtr front bar (bottom one cut a little) I have had them in fibreglass these look like they just done in carbon - i still have the top smaller ones, other ones i cut up can find them on alibaba etc I got them through my sponsor / friend D-Speed can hit him up on fb (w.a) pretty sure this is them ?? http://epr-int.com/products_details.php?PrimaryCategoriesID=1&SecondaryCategoriesID=0&ProductCategoriesID=433

so developed a 'misfire'... turns out injectors not flowing so good ! blocked obviously from e85 (4 years old) ... new id1000's ordered and due tomorrow compression test / leak down test shows no huge drama - little down on no.4 but within range still so should still be all good...hopefully set of slightly used yoko 050 265's acquired.. getting new wheel alignment as recommended to run with 5 deg castor and getting massive under steer going back to what i know being 7ish and hopefully solve the issue

R32 Gts-t Front Camber Help
bcozican replied to JustinFormosa's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
As above wheels too big to my knowledge you gonna struggle i have 18 x 10 + 15 on the front of my r32 gtst with r32 guards, adj LCA's out about 20mm+ and 4 deg camber and 'normal' ride height I still get slight scrubbing in a few areas -
how'd you go with the MCA's? did you get to drive the car on track with others in first for comparison ?

Do Sunroofs Really Crack If They Get Tinted?
bcozican replied to IM-32-FK's topic in Exterior & Interior Styling
pretty sure it's not sunroof's crack its just no one will put tint on them because of the type of 'glass' and the temps the endure the tint itself doesnt work well on them ie: stick properly ...will buble etc could be wrong but im pretty sure thats what i got told when I asked many years ago -
Been out on track a few times with success now... feels good to get some untroubled seat time...a few tuning sessions and 1 x session at barbagallo Only got 6 hots laps that night before the rain came, when it rained I packed it up before I did something stoopid and ruined my run of good fortune... did a 67.4 long track on achillies 123 tyres not real having much of a clue and braking way too early .. 63's with good tyres seems the mark for a decently quick rwd car so hopefully 2 sec gain on driving ability and 2 secs going to some good tyres eventually will put me in the ball park havent yet played with suspension setting or anything just out there driving it right now... finding it a little hard to get the slow in.... fast out (and also not burning up tyres on way out) thing down but will get there Pics from No limits night Also finally got my new bonnet .. get your Charbon on ... now back to looking semi pretty again ... hope it stays that way out again in 2 weeks for some more track time ... then hopefully get into some sprint series stuff as well

Thats what I run for 3 years ... ID1000s up to 550hp (on hub dyno) no probs at all. Obviously with proper fuel system etc too

R33 Rb25 Koyo Rad *brand New* $490

Also fits r33 gtr and r34 gtt neo -
Have had the car back for a few weeks, roof is all painted and good - still rocking the old broken bonnet still till the new one comes in We made up some s/s plates to cover the hole from the flush ones that broke and go back to 'normal' bonnet pins they worked well and might paint this black and use them on the new bonnet as they increase surface area connecting to the bonnet etc Gtr bar has been painted put on with cf jun style lip and ally air guide painted also Also put a shroud on too, havent run one of these in ages ! so all ready and sorted when out to a tuning day to have a run 2 laps in coolant pissing out of the bonnet I came in had a look packed it back on the trailer and went home... im mean seriously !! Alas, seems something random was thrown from the fan into the radiator causing a small hole - bye bye radiator At this stage by myself and my helper ... were pretty much just over it but alas, while waiting for my newly ordered Koyo rad I put my old CA koyo in bleed up the cooling system and headed out to the same track 7 days later to have anoth crack, so persistant ! The car ran absolutely floorlessly... did a good 40 plus laps. Was great to get seat time and see the cars potential and to hold up to a hammering it was designed to do finally ! pretty happy.... So smiles on face laoded up went home put the car in the garage still on the trailer so have cleaned it up on the weekend and about to embark on my first circuit outting driving straight at barbagallo this Thursday night

R33 Steering Rack Spacers?
bcozican replied to ryzan's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
^^ as above best rack options are s14/ s15 - should all fit size wise just have to re-route some p/s lines -
So roof has been repaired and off to paint today - stoked what he did with it - stretched and shrunk the metal etc rather than just bogging it up only used 300g odd of bog he said Also while car is out of action and there is painting going on sorted out my gtr front bar which is off to get painted also - putting the Jun style cf lip on it and because the intercooler sits so far back mucked around and completed an ali air guide for it should do the trick
-
not that hard really - admittedly we had a tempate to work off as other cars I know had it done first but make a template out of card then after a rough cut out a few cuts and shaves to get it to fit properly initally but once you make one side of one side up then just use it as a template and you can bang out the other 3 pretty quickly and weld tops and bottoms together for support. yes cutting, grinding and drilling but can be done at home if your half handy... i cant weld but mate did that bit for me I like you are not up with the full massive techincals but my suspension / wheel aligner guy over here knows what he is on about and pointed me in this direction

If you want rear lca's level can mod your current s13 subrame by changing the pick up point ( as Roy pointed out) I have done this to my s14 subframe and created a 'ladder' system for the front pick up point with various level adjustment in it?? Is this what you and others mean ? Also cheap otion for the front for width is s14 or r333 front Lca's also about 10 - 15mm wider per side

I did find improvements for rear grip by doing the swap as have others I know have done it ... without all the swanky xyz gear to measure actual improvement at our level of racing you'll have to go off other peoples opinions and evidence though unfortunately Ive had it for so long now I have to try and remember the changes from one to the other but I do remember the difference going from one to the other I think s13 rear LCA's would be same length as r32 ones? if so id see if you can source some std s14 LCA's - shouldnt cost much This is going by memory but im pretty sure when I first put in the s14 cradle I didnt have to adjust anything to do with my swaybar ..I did have whiteline sway and endlinks though that did have some adjustment in it...maybe someone else can confirm there ?
