as some people have said, when your spinning a motor that hard doing a skid your usually not under full throttle

i used to have a awesome thermo set up on my oil cooler in my old gts-t, worked a treat

watch out for fuel surge as well, cause when you whip nuts on rubber caked snake pits you pick up a lot of lateral g's

If you can spin them fast enough you wont need to do it for 2 minutes they will blow before that.

I have helped prepare holden 5L motor for burn out comps and it took 3 motor rebuilds to get it somewhat right, and its coming out again to check it after its last burnout.

It has drains from both rocker covers, a oil catch can that drains back to the sump, a breather in the valley so air doesn't have to push out the rocker breathers (not much use for a skyline) moroso accumulator and also an oil pressure sender that cuts revs to 2500 when oil pressure drops below 30 psi or so. Large oil cooler with thermo fan and hienergy sump, it takes close to 10L of oil.

There better be a burgandy skyline at summernats. I thnk Adrian had it right, together with Paul's offer all you have to loose is a trailer home from canberra

its been run and won...the pussy didn't enter the burnout comp!

fark he is soft.

I thought it was running good on sugar cane?

it was running that good with CSR's finest and with the cycle idle going it was having trouble maintaining engine temperature on a stinking hot day it runs that cool.

he was too busy scaring punters with the anti-lag to worry about burnouts.

bugger he single handedly talked me into running sugar cubes in the new sports sedan, then he just wuses out.

Still....anti lag....damn good reason to try a vipec....there is nothing like scaring unsuspecting small children when you drive past.

the cycle idle sounds disgustingly awesome too...some guys buy cams just to hear the lumpy idle...they would empty their sack once they heard an RB on cycle idle. He was told on more than one occasion that he had the toughest sounding car at the Summernats.

cyclic or rotational idle is where a cylinder is dropped by the ecu in order. it cools the cylinder and also lets it idle lower than it would otherwise (because the antilag needs the throttle open a fair way too). sounds like a nasty miss or huge cams....

but neither are required to rip good burnouts....

spot-on...its main use is not to impress the derro's at Summernats but to cool down after the antilag is used.
