I saw him at the start line for one run hey.

Two things that got me were the amount of bs fast cars. Was awesome.

And how many cars still had problems, but they didnt seem to phase them. Just kept the boot in. It was just hurting to see and watch it.

Just got home from jabmo, was a pretty good turn out.

I thinky Rhys went 7.57 on one of his runs from memory. Paid and extra ten to get into the seats close to the starting line on the grass side. Was a good view beiing so close to the cars, but harsh on the ears sometimes.

Saw the v8 skyline run it was impressive, missed the godzilla motorsport r32 :)

Overall i thought there might have been more rotors running?

Also anyone know what the torana has in it?

12:24 I am just crawling in from the Jamboree. Full day of car racing and same can be said for the streets after. Now I am sun burned as hell but hell I had fun. I would post pictures but I realised I kinda only took pictures of things that are not appropriate :) & there was plenty of that to go around lol

wasnt very impressed at all.

theo quited in the morning after first run, and bloody did not see any fast GTRs completing any times at all.

does anyone know what happend to Reece's R32?? did he blow the drive shaft or something??

I saw that too, but then i saw him back where he ran 7.57. Was happy i got to see the car i went to see run something close to its best.

I would agree though there wasnt many fast skylines around, the turnout of everything else was pretty good though :ermm:

Almost needed hearing protection i was so close the start line damn rotors :happy:

problem with rotories is that you see one, you see them all.

all of them are pretty much the same engine, same sound, similar time, all of them can not idle, all in same chassis, rx2,3,4,7

at the beginning of the race, i was fine, but then really got sick of them aye...

I guess i can kinda see where your coming from but the point is they have an unique engine design, they sound f*cking unreal! & there times are similar becuase there all so stupidly fast. Plus apart from jamboree and mini jam how often do you get to witness the rotory potential? Obviously there not for everyone tho.

That Toyota was awesome (well the car with the toyota badge painted on it) :)

yeah got back from jambo not long ago, the toyota with the 2jz in it took the pro rwd record, with a 6.88 pass (i think) so now the rotary boys have to try and take back the title off the piston kids!!! and the heat treatment GTR took the record for worlds fastest 4wd. was a mint run, but i will have to say i have a soft spot for that pink R100 2 door wagon, i would own that car , it was so tidy, and went like a rocketship aswell was amazing.

i reckon they should bring over the HKS car next jambo and the heat treatment one and have a battle.... will be interesting.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.

      I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...

      Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.

      Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
