Yes but your Skyline does really GO Evan!!

But, we all wanna see the "special" car you're building......read we all wanna drool over the car that looks like an S13 :D>_<:D

Sure cannot keep any secrets here...Have tried to upload photos without success, will try again shortly

Cheers

Love the old ZED!!!

What do you do after you take the car off the road for close to 12 months tidying up the bodywork? Well you go to Sandown and get it wrong and end up doing this :)

Hmm, nasty. The car seems very loose in the back, even when not on power. What suspension did it have in it when you smaked the wall?

thanks

The Phill Coles combined Touring car is now in IP spec as well. The 3rd car is jeff Fear from SSS Automotive but runs with BSM support. 3 GTR's can only be good for the class. now if we could just loose those restrictors!

lol I don't think so somehow - even less likely now its been shown a gtr can beat those pesky rx7s with the restrictors in

To be fair to CAMS (something I hate doing) at least gtrs are eligible for sports sedans now - will be interesting to see the first person brave enough to try that.....hopefully Mr B will give it a shot sometime :thumbsup:

here are a few videos of my car from Eastern Creek on the weekend:

Catching a Commodore through turn 1:

Passing a few cars:

A full clear lap:

I ended up doing 1:52.15, which was ok but I was aiming for sub 1:50s. Apparently I'll need non cooked second hand tyres for that!

That sounds great, mate. Good stuff!

*** DISCLAIMER ***

Car's owner doesn't understand all those bendy bits he keeps seeing in your photos. Talk slowly and in words of three syllables or less and he probably won't brain haemorrhage.

Here's my nugget - broken at the moment but will be back soon to try and take some sort of obscure, non-existent racing record like most drag racers tend to do. >_< Built RB25DET, GT35, Ford C4, Nitrous, Turbosmart everything, Autronic SM4, Roundy-roundy suspension etc.

Pics are from WSID (my home away from home) and Willowbank Raceway where the only time the steering wheel is needed is when the burnout gets out of shape. Oh, and for that mongrel of a hairpin at the end of the track.

    • ..m'kay.... I see on my phone you're having difficulties interpreting the artfully hand drawn R31 wiring diagrams... you wouldn't credit it, but they're actually more accurate than those colour diagrams in gregory's and the like... ...for your purposes though, the wiring colour legend is on sheet 1.... ....the fuel pump connector is top right on sheet 2.... ...pin1 (black) goes to chassis ground -- pin5 (light green/red trace)... The best way to navigate those drawings, is to open them up in whatever image manipulation/paint program you like, and use the straight line/ruler  tool (with a highlight colour) to trace along the wire lines...not hard, no rocket science involved... Fun facts: The OEM diagrams are drawn to top trim level spec ~ so for example, you're looking at Silo spec wiring, but the base S3 Executive trim is also covered by the same drawing (base models just don't have all the add-on luxury bits) One of the more sublime bits of errata, is this bit... The wire splice between pins7,14 doesn't exist (red) -- the bridge on the cluster PCB between the same pins (green) does exist...but it's not 'there' physically...it's actually more towards the center of the PCB, exactly at the spot where they tend to crack...and if it does, only half the dash lights work... can drive you nuts chasing it ; don't ; just solder in the missing splice... These are 'intentional' soldered and taped splices inside the loom(s) ~ there's also unintentional splices like this, due to manufacturing process when a spool of one particular coloured wire runs out, and they splice in/on a new spool. Those splices above are in the loom, LHS, underneath the front guard panel (remove to get at loom)... if water's gotten into the looms, you can expect corrosion at these splices ... keep this stuff in mind, if in the future you get any weird electrical faults... 👍  
    • that looks identical to the WGNC34 Stagea one I was poking around the other day. Is the other end of that not the ECU plug? If so checking continuity at both ends will tell you which ECU wire it is.  I can start by telling you ECU pin 31 is the top of the large pins on the right in your second pic
    • Bit late....but the one on my stagea has additional holes too, it is for clearance of the bolt heads which hold the radiator latch upright to the radiator support (ie, they are not to locate the panel)
    • My gut feeling was also blowby, it is absolutely crazy when you see how much engines actually breathe when they run a lot of boost or are heavily modified. If you can ever see a motor on a dyno it's pretty crazy, full on steam train action. I thought I was going crazy when filling a 500ml catch can in one 20 minute track session, or maybe two. It's been awhile. But then I saw how much _worse_ it is with harder running engines and I was pretty shocked. In any case I would definitely use more than 1L in 1000miles with that kind of load going through it :p It going nowhere.... is... unusual
