I don't think I have seen a white R32 around how long have you had it? I go past the Soarer and Supra every morning as well I'm usally driving the Yellow Mazda with the really loud exhaust.

Good to hear you get your License back, I've heard that some brissy cops are up here teaching ours how to use the new DB meter, bit of a blitz going on.

I heard a little story a while ago that someone went to Rocky I think, to pick up there R32 GTR and on the way home it burst into flames. I'm not to sure what happened just heard the story, has anyone in Central Highlands heard this?

Hey Mega GTS-4... that thing sounds really cool...

are you happy with then end result or are you going to keep modifying the RB26...

I think it is a great way of getting a GTR... and because it is all it a GTS body everyone thinks it is just another skyline... little do they know...

The other good thing happening at the moment is the 88-89 R32 GTR's that are available from many importers cheap... particularly prestige motorsport or the likes... I was thinking that a cheap R32 that had a big list of mods would be really cool... even if it came over and the RB26 had some serious issues with blowby and the like... perfect time to build a RB30 bottom end... massive horsepower and a 4WD... I like the sound of that... maybe it is time to sell the old Q with Boost... although it has been a faithful rig and I would like to get it down to the 12's before reassigning it too light track duties... (I love the Clubsprint Meets at Ipswich)

anyway I hope you guys are all running at the 16th... and if not atleast come and say Hi...

Hi Rick, I've seen the Grey GTR a couple of times usually just putting around but I haven’t seen it for a while now.

The story I heard was supposably that the Sky that caught a light was only just bought.

No sorry I don't know peter tease and wazza, I get my fuel from Shell for both my cars, I think I'm a bit of a hermit.:)

that car that burst into flames was an R33. He was from Blackwater I believe. There is a pretty bombed R33 at blackwater too we had a look at it the other week it was in at Garths shop getting some work done on it. Appreantly it was one of the first R33 to be imported to australia (been here since 1995).

We also have 3 red 300zxTT's 2 seaters here. 2 0f i know have been to Willowbank 1 has run a best of 12.56 the other 13.8 & the 3rd one is owned by a old dude that wouldn't race it. At one stage there was 5 red ones here but one has gone to St George & the other went back to Brisbane.

    • 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.
