Hi all,

at the weekend we attended the second round of the australian sport compact racing series.

in qualifying we ran a couple of pbs

9.55 et at 155 mph

then

9.36 et at 156.4 mph

we made it to the quarter final only to break out with a 9.592 et on a 9.60 dial in time

this put us third for the event and gives us a 120 point lead in the championship with 2 rounds to go.

the encouraging thing about the times were the track had been scraped on friday so had no rubber down which ment i had to feather the throttle for the first 400 feet or so, sixty foots were back at 1.69 instead of our normal 1.5's so on sixty foot alone theres a 9.0 to be had. we still have room to move on the tune so hopefully we will see a 8 sec radial tyred pass in the near future.

massive thanks to my tuner and crew chief Justin Gregory from BlackTrack Performance Dyno Centre in thornton. results speak for themselves. just put 3300 pounds and 156.4mph into a horsepower calculator, its pretty impressive not to mention the car performs time after time after time. thanks must also go to merv for his fabrication work at blacktrack.

also a big thanks to other local business who sponsor me 6Boost turbo manifolds, PRO Coat high temp coatings, MV Autos, microtech global, premier exhaust, rampant performance parts and turbosmart.

cheers

Shane

far out shane, this thing is seeing some serious mph now, congratulations mate. going well.

that big turbo really brings it home. that mph is good for high 8 sec pass. keep it up.

    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
    • Evening all. Got this odd issue with my R34 GTT. If I let the car idle for around 15 seconds or more (even when cold) and I jab the throttle a bit, a decently sized plume of blue/grey smoke comes out the exhaust. Doesn't smoke when idling alone, just when giving it some gas after idling. No smoke on cold start or from what I know, normal driving. Not 100% sure about smoke on decel but I don't think there's any. Any pointers on what I should start doing to troubleshoot it? Or if anyone has experienced the same I'd love to get some insight. Cheers.
