ive got a set of purple underbody neons you can have :(

I have some neons as well. I'm never going to need them on the track.. so donate.

FYI - Gadg owns Provex. He has control over this project, and as an SAU Supporter / Sponsor he will be donating his time and workshop for this project. Therefore tools / welders aren't required. But wiring / spray paiting is something we will need.

Provex are very capable with all metalwork skills. SAU members just need to donate some parts and ideas and perhaps some time if Gadg needs.

I say we need to give it a big stereo and a mini-bar or ice box.

Cougar - I'm away on the weekend, but if anyone wants to take the Lada to get the trailer to pickup the BBQ to take to the workshop to leave for John who'll drink the scotch that lay in the house that Jack built...

Then let me know - is all yours.

* anyone not up to speed with nursery rhymes - clicky

Or even better the MetallicA song.. Click

Anyway should be ok can tow with the 3.5 cylinder gemini. Still faster and safer than the Russian Tank.

hay man can we do one night say after work not worried about a time just need to call me a tee it up other wise im talking to dad tomorro and i can find out if he will be at the factory on saterday?

A Coupe half-cut is kinda hard to work with - makes it more or less impossible to keep the rear seats, or even the roof & rear glass for that matter. That said - Cutting the C-pillars lets the rear seat area be used as a bigg-ass icebox, with it's lid sealing around where the rear quarter-glass & rear screen went.

I'm having a hard time thinking-up how to get 8-burners worth of BBQing fun into a skyline boot . . . Has anyone actually tried to get anything bigger than an overnight bag through that opening?!?!?!?! ! ! It might take a more radical mod- like attaching the taillights to the bootlid, and having the hotplate slide out??

Maybe a big square-ish plate that rises up & back from the boot, with some of those weak-ass Ceramic turbo wheels as the burner knobs?? ? ! :happy:

just so you all know, over the last 3 days we've been having our spray booth fitted. not too sure how long til it's passed for safety and operational, but i spoke to my brother in law and he said if you supply the paint, he can paint it. or even if any of you know of anyone who can paint cars etc just get them to come in and get to work :rofl:

    • 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.
