ok, time to lower the tone a bit! this is my new track hack.

Bought it as a race only import in January, made a few changes and did its first track day a couple of weeks ago at Lakeside. Ran a 1:00.32 first time out, which is OK considering how bad it was handling. Have since discovered the front springs were 9kg (about 500lb) so have replaced them with some 7kg/390lb jobs that came out of the rear. My ride heights were all over the place too. So that's sorted now and hopefully it will be a fair bit better for its next outing. Other than that it ran fine all day, so that's a pretty good start.

I love Rega wheels! Be good to see you and Marlin in a 2L battle

All SR20s must HANG!

It seems the Sil80s are far more popular then the Onevias. I have always liked the Silvia with 180 nose myself, also saves bit of weight in the hatch area i imagine?!?!?!

much like yours it's pretty quick for what it is. they are a good little car for the money. great fun to punt around.

has a pretty decent power curve too.

and me doing the drift in it like all the cool kids wanna do...

[Marlin]

Though Rega wheels are light as a feather from my old fading memory.... good stuff Harry.

I look forward to matching you when I can finally run mine on some fresh rubber mate

[Roy]

Baron, you need to track that thing more. Sub 2.00min laps at PI with short shifting and being kind, since you had only owned the car for 14 hours when you gave me the keys at PI Its a quick car!

[woolls]

Here is my 98 R33 Gtst, I bought it about 5 years ago, It was my daily driven car. I did a couple of club days and thought, this is great.

So in went a cage early last year, got my cams ticket and did the last 4 round of the tassie series in the targa class last year which was a real learning curve.

Over the off season, i built a 25/30 with forged internals, and running a gt3582. fingers crossed all goes well this year. 1 round down and 5 to go.

[N1GTR]

Looks good!

But thats an interesting gearknob, looks like a screwdriver handle

[phunky_monkey]

Nice S13's boys, welcome to the club! They're great fun to drive and parts are cheap and plentiful.

Harry, how are the JJR coilpacks holding up? My splitfires wouldn't play nicely with my HKS twin spark so I got rid of them, and am looking to purchase some. Tossing up between those and genuine Nissan ($$$). I can buy 2 sets of the JJR's for the price of 1 set of genuines so I may take the risk.

Troy: Them's fighting words... Once I get a new oil pump onto my engine it's on!

Wools: Nice GTS-T mate, looks really clean.

[Roy]

Sandown baby, being the "Drag strip" everbody like to claim

We can line 'em up on the entry to the straight and see who will hang in there the deepest under brakes. I will win as i dont mind the taste of armco and have no problem rolling in the sandtrap if it means me shooting under you in the braking area

[Tektrader69]

i dont mind the taste of armco

Hope you got deep pockets. Last guy I saw do that at Sandown in an HSV got a bill for $7,000 to fix the armco up.

[badhairdave]

always good to see people talking up s13's on a skyline forum

My NA nugget. Your car isn't rough harry.

[Roy]

Hope you got deep pockets. Last guy I saw do that at Sandown in an HSV got a bill for $7,000 to fix the armco up.

I just hit it so hard that i diplace the whole thing. Its not so obvious when the whole armco is missing, rather then just a dent

[SABBAi]

Nice 13's boys. Great little platform to learn from!

That 33 looks pretty tough too.

Here's mine. It's still in the build.

2.2ltr, 50 thou forgies, ballanced and blueprinted bottom end, 460cc's, 5 button clutch, Custom GURU motorsport torsen LSD, coilovers, custom build T3/T04E turbo with 38mm gate, drifteks, 300mm rotors etc

Going in for a tune in the next few weeks. Hoping for 300+hp atw.

Hopefully going in for a cage after the tune.

[hrd-hr30]

Rega wheels eh, I had no idea what they were. They are pretty light.

Steveo, that's because it is a screwdriver handle... It was on the car when I got it and I kinda like it. Also has the fully sick drift button on the handbrake lever like Richards. I didn't like the old 15" Momo wheel though, but I kept the Sparco off my previous Datsun 1200 track car.

JJR coilpacks are OK for the little running its had so far. but like I said, I've only had the car a few months and its just done 1 track day...

Dave, are your bumpers and side skirts held on exclusively by zip ties and tek screws? lol mine's an ex drift car. It had bog falling off the drivers rear quarter when I bought it. I've re-bogged and resprayed the quarter panel, and side skirt on this side to cover the white marks from rubbing a tyre wall in its previous life...

Here's my dyno sheet. The 271bhp peak doesn't tell the full story. There's over 260bhp at the wheels pretty much from 5000-7500rpm Benno, you better get some D03's mate!

[Belsil80]

heh its great to see all these S13s poping up, i have never bothered putting mine up but may as well. Flavor of the Day!

Started life as a auto 180 fresh off the boat a few years back.. now its track only.

Fairly basic lot of mods, but its good for 220 at the wheels.

28-60rs

cams HKS 264s

PFC

555's

Z32AFM

Big Oil cooler

5 Stud with 324mm's on the front

garbage exedy clutch

HSD's all round..

bunch of different arms..

17x9s all round

Half Cage

Racetech seat

The motor has never been pulled apart and has done over 15 track days and just as many Deca days... Mind you most were on standard power but it certianly had the crap flogged out of it each and every time. the way it should be. touch wood.

The engine bay looks like its actually a rally car in a coal mine so no pics. not that there is anything to see.

Dutton 07

[Roy]

Shame your thing is only quick around carparks Ryan LOL i have to get the dig in before you find your missing killerwasps.

And good to see the TX5 still in the build. A move interstate has not stopped the build, be a handful at Lakeside

[Belsil80]

heh, im looking forward to dutton only because i get to go to P.I. again and hopefully get some laps in without it breaking straight away. even if it is only 2 timed laps... i should be right on your heels. what are you? 51's?

[N1GTR]

Hahaha, great stuff!

Hows it attached? Just welded on?

You forgot to mention its a great car for passenger rides in when being caned

Ben? Russ? Can we pony up either of your rides as mine is still in pieces, a cunning attempt by Belsil80s co-driver to stop another rwd 2L from being quicker

Seriously, if somebody wants to enter Dutton Vic, let me know
