R33 Gtr At Bathurst 12hour 2007


Recommended Posts

Your right Duncan there was no GTR's or Saker.

The racing was competitive and most importantly clean racing. It was intersting to watch a Subaru coupe (still road registered) in super TT beat everything on the track bar a group a commadore! He ended up with 2nd as tyres went off on the last lap.Damn..

Intermarque was good, Porsche v Masarati. The first porsche has 600+hp which showed the way it ripped apart the main straight but only just beating a twin turbo porsche with the massa in 3rd.

Thunder sports is basically the supersports class with the few extras added to it.The racing was quite entertaining.

There was a Formula holden with a 450hp 4.0 toyota V8 which was impressive. There is another one coming soon with a 600+ V8 which the driver stated as rewriting the record books at a few tracks. Will be interesting to see as he was a front runner in F5000 in the 70's, so age does not weary all of us..Funny, that the fastest cars over the weekend were two 20yr old F2's!

    • The r34 gearbox is like $3400/3700 landed from Japan sometime last year.   Contact jessestreeter.com for info and quotes. From memory the navara gearbox needs input shaft machined down as I looked into a while back and there's a thread somewhere here from 2018-2021 about it. Depends on what your doing with the car maybe worth the dollars to go cd009 or a 8hp50/70.
    • VCAM doesn't really increase peak power, it just widens the powerband. So if you were giving up power with adjustable cam gears to get better low-end response yes in theory it "increases power" but otherwise not really. Stroker kit might put you in a more efficient region of the compressor map which will get you more power but at say 7000 rpm I'm not sure that much will change. The original HKS GT2530, -5s, and GTX2860R gen 2 are all roughly the same kind of turbo. If you want 600 horsepower those are the turbos you need. So 500 whp. Just expect to spend some quality time trying to figure out intake/exhaust piping. The "twin turbo" pipe is an obvious place to start. Make sure the actuator preload and all of that fun boring stuff is set up correctly. Throw a VCAM step 2 at it if you want good response, 2.8L stroker too. If you're not actually wedded to 500 whp all the time you can barely get there with -7s or Nismo R3 turbos, you just have to run E85 or race gas and run them hard:
    • It's used in the GT-R, GTST/GTT, and Z32 VG30 NA + TT versions. Nissan still makes them new, they're not cheap but they're not expensive either. Personally I would just get something direct-fit and be done with it but I'm not that handy at fabrication.
    • FS5R30A the nav box isn’t it? I did think about those. Any issues? I wondered if the bell housing off an rb30 patrol would work as they are the same gearbox but with a transfer I believe.
