Easternats


Recommended Posts

I didn't even see the dyno challenge or the street drags. saw a few burnouts and go to whoa. The cruising on the track was awesome. They pulled us off the track just when we had a good line up of cars - there was me, then a white R34 GTR a couple of R33's & R32's and some VL Turbos. I was spewing - wanted to see how I went with the R34.

The dyno comps at easternats are always crap, the finals were meant to be on sunday at around 12-4 but no 1 showed up!

Well I assumed all power figures were rear wheel, the owner said it was loosing traction on the dyno so they only rev it to 7000rpm and not 9000, the car has produced it's best figure of 680rwhp and 580awhp in QLD, apparently all work was done by SUBZERO his bro-in-law, lucky boy.

saw your car run in the street drags and when u won those races the people in the grandstand were cheering u (I was standing on the bottom level), i was surprised as u beat holdens and fords and those guys love their holdens and fords.

What can u pull down the 1/4?

hmm that corolla didnt look or sound like a 10 second car. U r gonna have to be packing some serious turbos and other mods to be in the 10 second bracket in your 34.

that corolla with the big 8 would be around 1000 kg's i'd imagine.

power to weight it would have the edge over most street cars.

gtr-34 what mods you got done to your beast.

i saw you drive through the tunnel and take off up the first straight. very nice, and you did get cheers when you won, but you also got cheers when you lost. hehe.

cars looks mad though, and if you dont mind telling us, how fast did you get up the main straight, you over took most people from what i could see.

Went to Easternats on Sunday too, great day to be out. Saw the R34 GTR and actually had a chat to him in the car park. Good effort though, a 'P' plater driving an R34 GTR.

He told me that his car is standard except for full exhaust, filters and boost (14psi).

Come to calder next Friday GTR R34 like you said you would, I wanna see you pull a ten second pass......

no i believe a corolla with a rotary or something in it will do 10's easily enough just because of the weight..

An R34 GTR is definitely rocket fast.. I'd never say it wasn't. To do 10's it still needs a fair amount of mods however... What has yours had done to it GTR-34 ?

    • Hey guys, Just thought it might be of interest to owners of the RB25 det NEO motor, that awesomeness Nitto are in the late process to produce an engine gasket kit by end of Jan 25.  I think obviously there will be an 25det kit too. cheers, Ian
    • He is around but doesn’t really do automotive stuff anymore, mainly does commercial work now 
    • Shortly after I do the usual full exhaust/ fmic/fuel pump/ R33 turbo and still get flogged at the lights by i30Ns
    • Is Chris from Craved Coatings still around? He is an ex SAU guy and did great powder coating (back in the day at least)
    • Bumping this thread yet again, has anyone ever tried putting yet another vacuum regulating valve on the hose that goes between the turbo inlet? Something local owners have mentioned is the Radium breather pipes de-restrict the valve cover but it actually produces an undesirable outcome in practice, way too much air is sucked out of the crankcase and a ton of oil comes with it as well. As far as I can tell the PCV diaphragm in these modern euro wet sump performance engines is active during boost as well, there's just a check valve to block boost from entering the valve cover and crankcase as there's no inherent check valve function in these diaphragm-type valves. Hopefully I'll be able to try some of this out soon. The Volvo XC90 4.4 V8 has a nice external version of these things.
