Brisby - Yes! YAY! I ran a 129.53 on my first run. My second run was hindered with a little bit of ran and a penalty for having street tyres on the rear.

And no I didn't have the Top Gun music playing while I had the car show in car camera, it would have been so cool too because the camera was facing me not the road, i could've been singing danger zone or something!! haha. I was too stressed about the whole tyre issue to think of music. Next time gadget.

I do hope you and James liked my air guitar move though when we pulled up next to you on the way home blasting the Top Gun Theme music!!

Cool times are up. My best result is 14th outright in the Short Wang. Got to be happy with that considering my launch would really hurt me on such a short event

I dont feel so bad now.I have a couple top 20 outright results a fair few top 30 results and then in the 40s. My problem is that on the skidpan im coming 70th :)

Sign me up for the next DECA, install diff and learn to use handbrake :)

what happened to the times at Sandown ? Was there a problem with the car?

I went first obviously and there was something seriously wrong in my 1st run. The car had no pull in 3rd or 4th gear. My top speed down the straight after the run was 178km/hr! The car was blowing a lot of smoke too. Our only guess was the engine was WAY overfilled with oil which Chris said he did. The top speed for my 2nd run was better at 221km/hr but still below where it should have been. I also had a slight sprinkle of rain in my 2nd run which caught me out at turn 2 and at the entry to the fast kink. 4th gear was also shagged so we were having to double clutch it which was a new experience for me. Plus by this stage our tyres were shagged. Check out how they were at the end of the day!

LOL. Z-tune? Meh, the thing is 4wd and eleventy billion dollars with eleventy billion kws and it is only 6/10 of a second quicker then the RB20 over the standing half mile :laugh:

Hell, i wish i had the balls to run the boost on Saturday that i was running on Sunday. The extra 30rwkws may have helped :laugh:

Im stoked with how the car went now. At the time i was a bit miserable but the old girl got some real good results, shame that the bad results were equally as bad :D

hahahaha Troy, the Z Tune did a 15.46 ;)

Congrates guys and Juz!!!!

Sounded like an awesome weekend, wish i could have made it for the weekend, but i was stuck at Calder.

Sounded like fun was had by all, with terrific results to boot :laugh:

Thanks for all the updates and pics.

On the oveall results, how come Jeff and Peter are down as a 2000 model VI? They were in a red IX so 05/06 model I thought. Phenominal driving by the pair either way.

Am very impressed by the overall standard though. :laugh:

Yeah, and I didn't manage to see the 3400 model porsche GT3 driven by James Dutton!!! :laugh:

Back to the future?

Hi all!

Great effort from the Skyline guys & gal at dutton. Awesome to watch the motorkhana at Sandown with that gravelly surface and all. :laugh: Sure made light work of your tyres Snowy :laugh:

Good to meet some of you last night afterwards. So from a new member of "the darkside"...see ya 'round!

'wrx driver' :sorcerer:

LOL! Just noticed that as well! :laugh:

Marcus White will surely be pissed with his car classified as a 1995 when his plate says 1996!

If you look you'll also see Chris and I were driving a 1999 GTR. Basically the EVO guys would have originally entered that they were doing it in Jeff's old car and like for us never updated the information on the new car.

Makes sense now. Surprises me though as all weekend the organisers demonstrated exceptional efficency with data. E.g awards and times that night, SMS results, results on the web already. :thumbsup:

2. The Winton Flip Flop can be a scary place.

I can second that... YOWZERS!!

Yeah, I did leave on Sunday with a nasty headache...maybe it was the MJR car... oh well, it still sounded great for the 3 times that I saw it!! mmmmmm 7 litres and a holinger sequential... heaven!! :thumbsup:

Bris, I saw that NSW GT-R with similar plates to yours! I thought you had lent him your plates for driving to the event or somehting... weird!!

    • Had another look at the car and I noticed the fuel pump isn't priming on ignition. I'd taken out the pump from the boot to siphon out the old fuel, so maybe I've knocked something loose or broken a wire putting things back together. Will go back with a multimeter and try to work out what's stuffed. Kinda hoping it's the pump itself thats gone so I can upgrade it
    • Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)  
    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA
