It would sound pretty nasty without that X pipe i would assume

Yeh mate come along for a look! and drag that cousin of yours up, i haven't seen him in nearly 2 years!!!

Nah its Motul Turbolite which is 10W40 and i know of numerous people who have used this with no issues for many years in RB's. Im putting it down to a couple of things: Oil Filter Oil Pump (could be an N1?) Pressure Regulator? Something else....

Hi Paul. Its a standard sump, i have put about 4.5 litres maybe a bit more in it. Oil pump/system is unknown as I bought the bottom end already built and just had my head bolted on. I just keep thinking maybe the oil filter??? Im pretty sure the oil filter is a z442 when it should have a z145a. Or is it more likely the oil pressure reg is stuck?

when starting from cold my oil pressure (greddy EL gauge) gets insanely high just at idle, the gauge itself goes to 10 kg/cm2 and it goes beyond 9 on cold, and if you touch the throttle it will continue (and red led will illuminate). It runs pretty crap while cold and is un-drivable like this (bit of smoke if revved when cold). Once it gets up to normal operating temperature the pressure drops to about 4-2 at idle and will go up to 6 when revved a bit. I put fresh oil in recently (Motul Turbolite) and its only been driven probably 20 km's since. My main concern is its got a smaller oil filter (random SR20 filter i had spare) on it than standard as the normal one didn't fit (RB conversion into S13, doesn't clear the engine mount). I wouldn't have thought this would be a problem, but im no expert either. Please help, this is stressing me out to the max! I just want to be able to drive the car not watch the pressure gauge! Cheers Tim,

Geeze you guys did well that year Greg! and your right, Tarmac Mag = Cheap entry (bonus), Birubi Art =$too much to say, Me = Fraction of previous amount.

Jeeze Snowy may aswell bring the whole fleet across... R34, R35 and heck bring the R36 for good measure

Yeh lol didn't think of that!

COME ON GUYS!!! TALK IT UP!!! Only 30 days till the big shin dig... and our cars starting to look rather sexual

I can't believe he got a $50,000 fine! I would still call it a racing incident and you see it numerous times in other rounds and a blind eye gets turned, fair enough he drove on but his car was STILL drivable to an extent. Mind you I don't see any penalties being slapped on R.Kubica??? wtf? There seemed to be alot of mis-communication (or lack of communication) between crews/drivers/stewards. Take the first safety car issue, there was a good 2 laps wasted cos a few drivers didn't know whats going on and i mean how can you expect them to they don't have track side coverage.

Where can you vote for this?

Yeh been about for a while, trouble is there is usually a waiting list a mile long to get into it, I believe Ed Ordynski has something to do with running one?

Roy, public transport in europe is fantastic, and cheap. jump on a train and you'll be border hopping your way there in no time.

Just to confirm fuel consumption from last year is as follows: Starting with a full tank Day1: 49.5 litres at lunch break, 44.8 litres end of day = 94.3 Day 2: 20 litres at Legerwood, 42 litres at St Helens lunch break, 20 litres after Rossarden, 38 litres end of day = 120 Our competitive fuel consumption really didn't start to get bad till day 4/5 with those longer open stages with long periods of WOT and long transports.

Are you kidding? it looks like a f**king cool track! now I know why everyone rates it!

I don't see a huge benefit for navigators doing roadbook (blind) rallies, your could have a snooze between calls... there isn't even much detail on the ones that are in there! I know its supposed to be a entry level type event, but how hard would it be to recce saturday and rally sunday?

Face it man, you'd be better off with a typewriter!

Go spend a week on the goldy, you'd be sure to find a sugar mumma... or a hooker... either way they both would have cash

Your a driver mate, better you stick to that side of the car. I interestingly added up all the entry fees over the weekend... yikes!

No Warrane town stage (thank god), got the can.

Make that two race wins!!! Well Done Duncan!!

Hey mate you will definately need a mode of transport, there are designated spectator points on each stage which are listed on the targa site.

just need some plugs for the single wire green knock sensors, can't seem to buy them anywhere. PM me if you have anything! Cheers Tim,

I just noticed Steve Coad and the big monaro are out... what a shame no skids for kids.... oh wait thats benny's cue

Hey mate, i just got a slave cylinder from kudosmotorsport they also sell master cylinders too.
