Thanks guys,

it was my very first pass aswell, felt like the car had more in it, as i hit rev limiter in 2 gears. but andra didnt let me race again :) but i am still very happy

All the hard work with this car was done by Ant Scali and Danny Smith. i was the lucky one who ended up with the car. These two did an awsome job, built and tuned the car from the ground up in ants backyard. all the credit goes to them.

times where

10.85 @ 128mph

1.74 60'

I thought I put a post in here, I guess not :angry:

Congrats on your run, but a couple of questions I hope you don't mind answering. How come andra didn't let you do more runs?? And how much did you pay for this gtr? :(

i cant run anymore because cars quicker than 10.99 require alot of safety gear,

mainly a halfcage (the jap ones dont meet the standards set by andra)

ballistic blanket

external power shut off

and just some other small stuff.

cost of the car, i would rather not let out :D

      Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
