Morning guys,

Actually a little embarassed to write this but the only official news that I am getting is WIP "work in progress"... the fact that they now have a 10 day public holiday does not help either. I have been promised that they will re-commence work on Wednesday next week.

I will be making a rather large threat to this supplier next week; hopefully this will get those items done and sent here.

Believe me when I say that my mate and I are very upset at this.

OK; here's the latest update... CNY is over and the gears are cranking again at the overseas supplier! (finally)

I've been promised that 5-7 sets will be ready by Friday this week which will be immediately dispatched to Australia (arriving early next week)

Once here; the sills will be sent out in order of payment.

The other sets will arrive shortly after to Australia and then onto you. Please don't worry too much; I now have 3 different people continually cracking the whip on this.

Thanks for your understanding guys!

Stan

Have to work that one out; but just taking a quick glance at my bank statement from January, most payments were made through this month.

4 sills is just under half of the GB so yeah; if you ain't in the first batch you're in the second. I think this is only fair...

Hey guys; guess what showed up at my office this morning? :)

I don't have my phone cable here; so I can't upload any photos - wish I could though! I'll take some photos tonight before I box them up and ship em off.

I've also been told that the second batch has been received by my mate overseas and will be shipped here ASAP.

Thanks all

Stan

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
