Did everybody leave,

Anyway Sciby about the inside of my car, the seats are all getting recovered and most of the inside, am at the moment buying up compoents for my stero, once I have them all the whole inside of the car comes out and the new one goes in with the stero. the whole boot will be done and inside insert hopefully if I can afford it recovered in leather. Tan most likelywith the orginal balck mixed in, new carpet for the floor to plus the walls being detone. I want to do it up so I might get into like Hot4s mag, the outside has some body changes,

Clear tail lights, the four cannons, to complete the ass end of the car, the side skirts are getting re firbeglassed and the front bar renforced. paint the brake calpers and then try to get the paint looking shinny. the out side is almost complete now. This car is going to cost me alot of money but it is what I want to do.

Just looking up stats for a standard GTR and it sez 0-400 metres in 14.4 for a 32. That was in Unique Cars June. I was under the impression that they went a little quicker. Still piss nervous about the drags, but then i used to chunder before rugby so if anyone sees me blow chunks on saturday don't be suprised. Should be a mad day anyway. Dan you have to run come on do it for the appressed silvia Q's in australia. Hella keen to see the two preludes too.

You reckon dev, just found out at lunch I am looking at $1500.00 for re triming the stuff I want as in the seats and the doors insert and other stuff in yellow valour that not using leather. Leather is like 2/3 the price of that again. Plus Leather get hot valour more practical. Bright yellow it is, first stage is everything but the seats and that will happen in the next month or so like $450.00 at the most.

Dude, relax. It's all good. First time out there, no one's expecting a record-breaking pass. :cheers:

And those stats are never really accurate... my gts should be about to break 14s, (I hope) and you're faster than I am.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
