3 Genuine Gibson Motorsport Hr31 Skylines At Sandown Raceway


Recommended Posts

Big boy, Brisby and Patric

I'll be there at 9am tomorrow but just give me a yell when you get there and i'll come out with the tickets. My number 0423 856 410.

There are some mean machines this year, there is one that probably your fav Mr Brisby, a fully race pre Audi.

Apparently one of the R31s crashed?

Must happened at race 3 on Suday arvo then, i heard the 31 won the first race on Sat, i saw second race early sunday's arvo and the Ford Siera won, didnt' hang around to see the last race.

Yeah both the R31 and Sierra "disappeared" in the final race on Sunday. We couldn't see what happened to either from our vantage point - was down turn 1 way for both. But they were both just there one lap and not the next.

R31 Broke a diff or CV, Pulled off the track and was towed back, Sierra was bumped off the track by the RE car VC commodore that was in the top 3.

Gavin started to get a feel for the GT-R and ended coming 2nd by about 2 metre's to the commodore but it was a great race to watch.

In that shot of the DR30, the guy behind the wheel is Tony Scott.

He's the guy who put that very car on pole at Bathurst.

What year was that? 1986?

Hooks

Was he also the co-driver with Fury in 84 when Fury had that famous lap and stuck the bluebird on pole?

Gary Scott, to me it felt like I was surrounded by royality, jim richards, graeme "jackie" stuart and gary scott. Did anyone see fred gibson on the weekend was he flating around?

    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later. 
    • Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
