hopefully a few guys on this forum can make it out to the track when it gets hear, as we will try to get it out to QR before we start changing it.

Ahhh, you guys built the crazy R32 GTR that recently raced at Tsukuba? Congrats on all the success :blink:

And congrats on the R35. Lots of us are dying to see how they go with mods!

Damn you have lotsa GTRs, how about spreading it around a little mate? :blink:

Nice work Russ, any particular modification plans for the R35 when it arrives?

Nick

r35 will get caged, exhaust , hopefully ecu modifier of some description for boost fuel timing & speed limiter, terratrip, seats, harness

it will be stripped out of alot of interior and not much else at this stage, want to be able to run buller and things like that.

the r34 will be 3ltr, autronic, hollinger, v8 supecar brakes, full ikeya arms, carbon doors and bonnet, caged, single seat, as light as possible for pure time attack events.

nearly all these parts are here just waiting for the bloody car!!

Before the R33 goes i so would love to see some footage of it being driven in anger :blink:

hey roy , it,s coming mate!

we stuck into it over christmas , all new fuel system , pulled the engine back out and dry sumped it, engine should go back in.

i would say it will be on the dyno in two or three weeks, want to have it finished before starting anything else,

want to do a few events in it before selling it! probably do gatton street sprints up here in march.

so i will have vids of it and pics of car sometime soon.

what would be the best optin shan?

i was going to rally rego it

well if you're gonna go balls out and race mod it then you'd probably be better off with a race import. it'll also see the car in your hands faster.

if its gonna be sedate mods then putting it on the road might be more fun/profitable when you want to sell it down the track. that said, it'll be at least 6 to 8 months before anyone can comply em.

i'd go the race import, easier, quicker and cheaper.

    • What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny. 
    • I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update 
    • The manual says a lot about the different ratios requiring different shafts. all the Centers are the same but depending on the ratio, this determines the shafts because different ratios need the center to be offset more or less or right to left.
    • those 2 sets of shafts will not interchange and if you’re lucky you haven’t damaged anything with all your pressing and bashing you said you’ve done 
    • Freshly built stroked RB25/28. Motor runs great but consumes a lot more oil then It should. This summer with the heat I was consuming roughly a quart per 1800-2000kms. Now with the cold weather coming in, I'm consuming a quart per 1000kms which is no bueno. I had originally chalked this out to break in taking a little longer then it should, but I'm now around 4000km's on this engine. I think it's fair to say something isn't quite right. Here's the kicker, can't find what's causing it. I've also spoken to my engine builder and Precision Turbo and can't figure it out. Here's my train of thought on possible causes and what I've done.  Precision Turbo - I originally started thinking my oil pressure might be a tad too high for my 6466 Gen2. I took the center cartridge out, and while yes there's signs of oil on the turbine heatshield, it's very moderate. There's also very minor in/out play that concerns me. I sent pictures and videos to precision and they said the residue and in/out play is minimal and they doubt this is the issue. For piece of mind, I went ahead and installed a Turbosmart OPR V2 to bring oil pressure down. Made no difference. Precision is willing to take it in on RMA for an inspection and I'll probably take them up on that offer for peace of mind. BTW. Is it just me or does the turbines inducer's look clipped and not even between each other? I just noticed this now while posting and looking at the picture zoomed in. Might just be the picture...  Rings - Hot compression test and leak down test look good. Compression is 160 +-2psi across the board. I leak down at 16% on cyl 1,2,3,5,6 and 18% on cyl4. Keep in mind I have a snap on leak down tester and they read high (I.E, 15% on my wifes 2018 Sentra with 70000kms). Sparkplugs show minimal oil (Only #4 seems to have a tad). At a quart per 1000km's though, I would be expecting them to be wet. Here's the kicker, I run WMI. I'm thinking what if my compression rings are great, but I have an oil control ring issue on cyl4 and my WMI is steam cleaning the pistons and sparkplugs? I can still see the "Spool" logo on top of my CP pistons. The only time I see smoke out of the exhaust is in the high rpm/load range. So far, this is my main culprit. I'll probably turn off my WMI and go out with the car at spring pressure tomorrow and repull the plugs. Other thing that's strange though is that I have never seen any oil in my catch can. Thing is still dry after 4000kms. Cyl1 - Left, Cyl6 - Right. Valve seals - They're new and I would expect oil consumption on idle, first cold start or during decel. None of which is happening.  Crankcase pressure - I have 2x 10an valve cover lines to a vented catch can. Head drain and opened up internal oil drain paths. I also don't run E85. I've never seen any oil in my catch can. Doubtful this is causing any issues.  Rear main seal - I have no visible leaks, but figured maybe it was my rear main seal. After now having added 2-3 quarts, I would expect oil to leak out the bottom drain channel and/or my clutch to be slipping.  Let me know your thoughts. With winter coming and taking the car off the road until spring, I'm fine with pulling the motor apart but I would hate to take it all apart and the turbo was the issue in the end.
