Very very very very nice! Good consistant times there, love hearing about it - it was driving me crazy that all the reports of the Jamboree I heard didn't include your times even though it appeared you were there. What tyres are you running on it these days? I know you got very fast on the drag radials but not sure at what point (if?) you went to a full slick.

congratulations to you and your team as it sounds like you were all busy. Nothing like putting in the hard yards and beeing rewarded with numbers like those. not sure if many people can appreciate whats involved in getting a car to be that fast and also consistent like you have your car running know. big well done.

Congrats on the huge effort Mark resetting the benchmark all the time will be great to see you claim the world record mate. Doing all ozzy GTR fans proud.

Haha I am in a bit of a pickle here, I love seeing these guys go quicker but between the fact I have watched Reece McGregor gradually go faster since 1998 and the fact that Heat Treatments are from NZ I feel a certain amount of compulsion to cheer them on too - so I'll keep cheering, but quietly hope the 7.57s mark doesn't get cracked until HT are racing again haha.

Lith, if the record gets bashed by Mark, that will spur the HT boys on even more. It's great when records get broken and the recordholder is still in the game.

Very true, actually. Best of both worlds!! Either way, Mark's car as clearly well up to the task of giving the HT lads a good run for their money in a race - he's gone quicker than the HKS R33 could do on Willowbank. If there is ever going to be an event with both there, I will travel to see it!

that would be nice to see side by side 7 sec passes....world first for gtr fans...

we are very happy with our progress with the car but still have a way to go the 7.5s but we now have the power on board to run 7.5 just need to tame it down of the start line and get the 60ft times down to low 1.2s ...

our next meeting is the spring top fuel event about 3 weeks i think... should be great...

cheers, mark

Best of luck for that, and yes - can see that the power is up there by the way the car wiggles around at half track... all HT's faster runs the car looks like it wants to check things out on the sides of the track, probably does near half a km on some passes haha. There are some people in the UK doing mid/low 8s who seem to think the only thing holding them back from running 7s now is adding the power - I'd love to know what its like in the car when you are getting down the strip but from the safety of the side of the track it looks like the whole run gets a lot more dicey as you start trying to push the thing down the strip in under 8s.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      255 can't go wrong with the price.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.

      I dunno what the "best" one is....but when my 040 died late last year, after about 20 years of screaming service....I put in a 255. Like any such thing, you have to finagle it a little bit - it's not a no-brain swap. But it's not hard.
