2nd in class at IPRA Aust Nats 2007 (6th Outright) Sister car to Championship winner. Comes with four spare rims and tyres Nothing to spend. Ready to race. MOTEC ECU and Dash.

$55,000.00 ONO AUD

Depending on what is actually in the thing with regards to engine internals, suspension and cage type, goes to show how expensive it is to build a car to a set of regulations :P

It is a brilliant car, quickest improved production car you can get, and if you think it cost $55k to develop you are mad....way more than that has gone into the bits it isn't running any longer alone. Not to mention the prepping of the shell.

but I'm not sure it would be a great choice if you aren't running it in IP. For instance - I don't know for sure how much power it makes at full go, but it has 2x 27mm restrictors with cams, turbos and head work to suit that sort of very low peak airflow. Think under 300rwkw for sure (but plenty of early boost). If you take the restrictors off you would need to change a lot of that to more appropriate mods.

BTW the sister car holds the IP lap record at Wakefield, 1.06 - amazing considering the restrictors.

Yeh thats my point. If they are selling it for 55k and one assumes you lose a bit of money on these sorts of cars when you sell them...like i said. Scary the dollars it requires to build a car to be competitive in a class of racing :)

this year's results

wakefield 0.0686 over lap record

1:06.0113 qualifying http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....08/2007.WAKE.Q4

1:06.4672 race http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....8/2007.WAKE.R13

lap record is 1:06.3986 so they got f**king close but not quite

eastern creek lap record

1:42.5294 race http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....09/2007.ARDC.R1

oran park lap record

1:15.5180 race http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/results....07/2007.ORAN.R7

so keeping in mind IP is one of the most (arguably the most) competitive classes in Aus and has been going for years. This car (or its sister car) set lap records at Oran Park and Eastern Creek (and within a bees dick at WP) and won the national championship.

1350 apparently. but I don't know anything specific about the car other than its results and the rules it runs under

Gary/Sydneykid did the suspension development he might be able to share more details.

well comparitively its OK because they are all running the yokos, but I would guess there is .5 - 1 second using re55s or DZ03.

this video is from the nationals showing how the GTR compared to the next fastest car - it shows where the strength is.....the rotor thingy behind has a fair bit more power and better brakes

well comparitively its OK because they are all running the yokos, but I would guess there is .5 - 1 second using re55s or DZ03.

Yeh, i appreciate that. I was just trying to get accross that the car would be quicker again if it ran the std tyre for Vic, RE55s or the Dunlops. Before they sell it they shoudl just rip the restrictor out and go for it....also Duncan, is it running Brembo and 324mm rotors

don't know mate I haven't seen it up close, and I'm not sure BSM would want me to learn too many tricks anyway (even if we don't run in the same class anymore) :D I would guess its not running the brembos but whatever the biggest thing you can get under 17s is (F50s?).

Also - I'm not sure it would go so well without the restrictors - they must have built it with a lot of compromises to allow for that including tiny turbos, small exhaust ports for quick boost etc etc etc.

But someone should really buy this, an amazing amount of time and money has gone into it....

Yes somebody should buy it!!

No wait, if you buy it I will no longer be able to drive it :D

BTW yes it has Brembos and weighs just over 1350.

The times listed for this car 1.07.40 at wakey and 1.45.0 at the creek were all done on older tyres. The number one car of Dave Loftus ( my team mate) always got the new tyres, and once he was finished using the green spot on them they would then get put on my car. I am telling you this so that you know there is certainly more time left in my car if you want to put new tyres on it.

It is impossible to get 300kw through 27mm restrictors!!

LOL Well it has Brembos on the rear and AP's on the front. Gee Duncan next you will be wanting to know what spring rates we are running as well. The brakes are big, 350mm from memory as the cars sit on 18x8 inch wheels.

The rule changed last year so that we can now run a 9 inch wheel. Loftys car will have 18x9 inch wheels for the first round this year.

Hi Chris

Not sure when the next day is planned but keep an eye out on the AUTOsports site :)

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
