No, still waiting on the headers, these things take time and money, I not know what I am wanting to do first, the car is like a two year plan I hope by the end of two years it will be finish to a point I am happy, have to higher stand then again that has always been me with things I buy.

The exhaust project fully finish is like $1,500.00 around about. so getting done in stages. Apart from that I am buying up speaker compoents at the moment, like I have already spent about $1,500.00 at Rocky Car Sound with only a headunit and alarm plus more gear being held for me.

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.

sciby if you don't do 14s I will eat my hat. Hell i did a 15 flat when my car was stock and running. I managed a very average 14 with more engine issues than you can poke a stick at .... you should creep into the 13s ..... well I think anyway ..... Dev relax you'll do a 13 .... but 12s are more likely ....

Who cares it just all fun that whole idea hey.

We will, its just fun to try and guess what times a car will do. althouhg last time i had quite a few people tell me that i would do a 13 without adoubt but I never ended up doing one so it was a bit disappointing ......... hmm I better shutup now don't want to have some be disappointed in their car .... anyway guys a 13 second street car is still damn fast and would beat the majority of cars on the street .....

Sames. It would be cool if everyone could just mellow. Anyway How am i going to mount this camera in the car on saturday and not get in the shit?

Very easily, the people at the drags dont seem to mind, we have strapped camera's in loads of peoples cars, from DC's to Big bills falcon. Just make sure it is in tight, both times we have just dodgied it up and used the camera strap as the support.

    • 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.
