On Saturday morning I went out to QR to watch Russ and Mark test a few bits and pieces on their R32 which is being prepared for the Tsukuba Time Attack at the end of the year. Even though they haven't got the race donk or suspension in the car yet, it is going like a bullet. Looks awesome in the flesh - black on black - carbon doors and 10"rims all round running 285/18's. For a car that has to runs semi's it is farken quick -really impressive to watch.

Mark is quite a wheel man - coming through the inside corner on the national circuit and rounding 6 onto the straight were a sight to behold.

Good on ya guys.

Farken awesome. :)

Yeh i was there also and got to watch their 32gtr, christ it is bloudy fast, and will only be faster when the new motor and suspension goes in.

mark sure knows how to steer the car well, was a great morning to watch.

Yeh, car was going good till we blew the turbo. Some rubber bits blocked the oil feed and it ceased the turbo from an obvious lack of oil. That sucked cause i needed the practice on the sprint track for the state championship rd in two weeks :happy: But we found another gt35r to use on sunday thanks to Daniel - elite racing man!

Would have been good to see. Have seen this thing at the wide bay sprints a couple years now. Very very quick car, seems to work well in the 'old' guise.

Was down in ipswich at the kart track saturday morning/lunch, saw quite a number of skylines going past towards qld raceway.

      Low oil pressure after WOT

      By pogman · Posted

      I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect
