When do we see the Bathurst '91 & '92 winners, the GIO car and the Lindsay Fox Gibson car together?

Put me down for tickets whenever that day occurs. Love to see it.

That makes for a few Bathurst poles/wins & championship wins right there.

Hopefully someone could bring all the other factory Nissan racers as well. The superb sounding 31's, R30, Bluebird, etc.

Living in SA ensures that I see bugger all Historic Group A/C racing and I can't begin to tell you how much that sucks.

Not too many Muscle Car Masters or Phillip Island Classics going on around here.

Looking for a decent turn out for the Skyline Nationals coming up, factory racers at the Mallala track day should keep me happy for a while.

Pretty sure the GIO car, Winfield GTR, HR31, DR30 and EXA will be at the national's this year.

P.S. Correct me if i'm wrong Caz!

Jetwreck, Hope this is correct. I know you that most of the historic guys are busy at EC this weekend but it would be great to see all of those cars at Mallala as well.

I guess it's been a while since the factory Nissan's have been around Mallala? I know I was there in '92.

Have they been there since?

Fingers crossed for a good turn out.

Got about a million pix from the Saturday. Will try and post up tonight.

Was epic seeing terry in the Winfield car in the last race on Saturday make up a whole heap of positions. Looked stunning coming onto the straight, with the headlights on.

That little M3 though was amazing. I think it was seton driving , right?

Also loved the look of the ANZ Sierra's.

only got to do the Handy cap race in the GTR(dad wanting it back for the races...bastard :D) but had a good dice with Seton in the Ford Credit Supercar! Car feel's awesome....so much grip......and surprisingly very easy to go quick in straight away!

P.S. Ben, I was in shock when Dad offered me the drive.....was shitting myself when I was told I had to try to come first(no pressure :P )......there was a 45 second handy cap from the first car leaving....got second :)....Seton third. Got down to a 1:46.4 through traffic on my 5th lap...not bad for a P plater ;)

      Weird compression after rebuild

      By EndZee · Posted

      But if I smoke test 5th cylinder it’s all ok, no leaks  when I try with 2nd it’s leaking exhaust and intake, it doesn’t come from oil dip stick.    so maybe when car was running poorly, rich or sth. Spark plugs were black and covered in charcoal or sth lookalike. could potential contamination make valves not seal properly? is there also a possibility that rb’s don’t have equal performing cooling passages  meaning back of the engine will be hotter than front. Can this cause improper wear if engine was running under load for short time? Or carbon build up could just burnt from 4-6 and is still on 1-3?   I out of my head like really. Timing is as manual crank-exhaust 47, exhaust-intake 38 at this point I thinking about give it a try and make another 500-1000km and check if anything change, if not I will most likely disassemble engine head /or whole engine and send it back to rebuild. It’s killing me

      Yeah. air pressure leakdown test is where I would be headed next here, using one's ears to determine whether it's the valves or bores/rings leaking...

      More likely you didn't bed the rings in correctly and have glazed the bores. Running with misfires on a fresh build is somewhat of a no-no. Surely no-one "smoke tests" the combustion chamber? That's what a leakdown test is for. Smoke testing is, um, a bit of a wank at best, and only really useful for external pipework.

      Attesa pump mount options / ideas? R32 gtr style.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, obviously that kit is not a relocation kit or anything other than just the original isolators and the like. I would suggest that it should be a matter of just bending up some flat bar to build a mount over the top of some other diff, with the flat bar held to the back of the diff by the rear hat bolts. A little welding, a little thinking about how to secure the front of this structure, maybe some different hoses in case you can't get it in just the right place.
