As usual, i shall be out there. A r33 is the weapon im packing.

After modifying the brand new Ikeya Formula lower control arms we can now achieve the camber were after without the steering binding up to help the understeer and well water/meth injection on and the bigger puffer should see more power and less knock. More so worried about the knock now coming into summer.

Hey how fast would one get down the strait past the pits there?

in a lightly moded R32 GTSt - not a crazy 33 like the one R33_rarcer has :ninja:

The reason I ask is because it's speed limited to 180 and I'm not sure if that will be a problem... :P

160 - 170 (speaking from experience)

And the back straight usually yields higher speeds. Isnt it just a wire to cut to eliminate the 180 speed restriction.

errr.... i have NO idea hey - im all new to this... but from what you guys are saying it should be a problem anyway... might just see how it goes first... not planning to go that hard anyway (cos itll be my first time so just wanna take it easy) i was just a little worried cos the car seems to get to 180 quite quickly (but i am use to a old hilux!! :wave:)

think it should be ok - ill see how it goes - thanks guys

if your unlucky enough to not have pre entered there is always the practice session in the morning. Quite a few of the people who miss out on the sprints go in that...at least you get some track time even if its not proper racing or time trials.

Side note, car came back from latest tune with a little more power...peaked out at 365rwkw...average it out to a good 350rwkw :P

R33 racer, you must be gusting 220 braking for turn 1, I know i am?

I won't make it, engine still out of the sil80: Modifiying the sump to prevent oil oressure loss on braking. Hoping to make it back for Wednesday arvo in november

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

      Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
