Nzmo32 R32 Gtr Build Up.


Recommended Posts

I really enjoyed watching stage 3

Stage 6 though.....hmm. Not so good to watch.

Hope the next event goes a little smoother for you.

cheers

btw are you running stock brakes!?!

For the next event I'll be using a different mind set I think. Won't be looking at the stage times therefore won't be trying to catch the guys in front of us. Especically when it's the RGM R35 :P

The brakes are still stock except for Blitz pads which I find to be excelent and some unknown brand cross drilled rotors. We suffered very little fade during the stages although when we got to the end they were fairly smoking. Only drama was, and still is to some extent was a bit of pad knock off so the pedal wasn't always picking up in the same spot.

car was going great mate. sad to see the little off you had, but that's tarmac rallying for you and bound to happen from time to time. up till then it looked great but like you said definitely not hooked up nicely in the rear. possibly time to get some shocks with a bit more oil capacity (remote canister time) but as always it's just more $$$. they really get a hammering on road tarmac rally stuff so I can see why you might think they were overheating.

Yeah I'll try to get something better in there sooner or later. The first runs on both days were fine befor the heat set into the shock oil so fairly sure that was the problem with them.

I just finished off the new fuel set up. I've put 2 x 044s in there now with dash 6 braided lines to each end of the rail. We were having a bit of trouble on the dyno with some inconsistant AFRs and i wasn't holding much hope for the old SX performance pump. So tryed and tested 044s were the go.

Had a bit of a go on the dyno to tune the new fuel system. Still got some more tuning to go yet but this was a bit of a tidy up cause it was extremely rich.

347kw at 19 psi so far.

Nice build up evocoop...

shame to see it get damaged,but good to see your up and going again..love the midnight purple btw.

Cheers Mate. I always wanted a midnight purple r33 back when I was a youngin.

I bought a cusco front sway bar a few days ago. Seems better but I had to lower the mounting position on the crossmember to clear the oil pump as the bigger diameter sway bar was fouling on it. Not sure if this will affect the performance of the sway bar but it had to happen and still feels better than standard? Anyone any experience with sway bar phisics???

Well it's been a while since I posted any updates on my dunger. It's not for lack of interest rather the fact that I am truely discovering the meaning of time poor.

I've been a bit steady on the build of late but have made a few changes since the last post. I bought a set of Greddy coilovers when we traveled down to superlap in may and some adjustable rear lower control arms and a hicas removal set up using s15 toe rods. So I've been playing around with wheel alignments but more recently doing some smash repair and re designed my fuel set up. So here's a couple of pics of what's been going on over the last year or so.

All ready for the tarmac sprint back in june. This pic was taken on the Reid Park V8 super car track which we used part of for the rally sprint.

I crashed in that event again. I got a bit carried away trying to keep up with Marlin and side swiped a cutting and backed it into some armco. But thats rallying.

I dug out some parts to get me through to the end of the sprint season up here and gave it a bit of love with a 4 pound hammer and a piece of railway iron for a dolly to make it roughly the same shape as it was. I also destroyed to wheels so I aquired a set of 18 inch RPF1s. This pic is showin them fitted up and the new rear bar zip tied on.

Had some sunoco race fuel given to me so we decided to chuck some in, tuned it up and went to the strip for something different. We made 436rwKW and ran a 10.71 @ 132mph with a set of r888 toyos and still with the circuit wheel alignment then broke the 3rd/4th selector fork being ham fisted.

I got my panel beater mate to stitch on a new back half of an old quarter panel from an old front end wreck.

DSC00540.jpg

I had my first go at trying to blend clear coats when I painted the new quarter. I blended it through the piller and I was really happy with my first ever attempt. This pic was straight off the gun but once I had wet rubbed it and buffed you can't even tell it's been blended. Beginners luck at it's best.

Finally I've changed the fuel system around a bit with the hope of running E85 this year some time. Basicly a 40 ltr procomp baffeled fuel cell into a carter lift pump under the new plate alloy floor up to the old surge tank and then into 2 O44s. made custom tank mounts that hang from the chassis rails. Pretty much finished that off last weekend.

That's it pretty much up to date for anybody interested. Our first hill climb is this weekend so pretty keen to get the year underway defending the hill climb series and also the sprint series that we won last year. I've got a Nismo diff coming and will be giving the Atessa a freshin up soon to. I installed a mechanical pressure guage into the line yesterday so I can see if it's working effeciently.

Yeah i like the Enkeis alot. I just wish they were 10.5s instead of only 9.5s.

He's a clip a mate took of one of my 10 second passes. This was on 255 40 17" toyo r888s

nice progress mate. yeah the RPF1s are hot. very reminiscent of the wheels enkei make for various F1 teams. I guess that's why they call them RPF1s.....

E85 is a great idea. cheap fuel and good power. exactly what you want for a track car.

The ones I have are +15. I have had some volk 10.5 +22 on it befor and they were an excellent fit and probably what I'll be trying to get my hands on soon to give these advan 295s a go.

I'm Going to start fitting 2 new diffs today. Link had a special on front and rear diffs so I got a Nismo 1.5 GT LSD Pro and a Nismo 1 way for the front. Big weekend in the shed. Also pulling the 4wd pump out and replacing it with one that has lower KMs and a good clean. Best I get started.

AMAZING car man. How are you liking the gtrs's? do you find them laggy at all? What suction pipes are you running. Im trying to source some ATM and do not know which ones to go for?

x2

How do you find the GTRS's for tarmac work?

Cheers

Justin

The Gtr-s are a 700ps kit so a little smaller than drag guys are running. For what we do up in townsville, like doing sprints on a go kart track they are probably a little too big but hopefully the will start to work when I start road tripping down south with it. But in saying that, if it lags up I just clutch kick it. :rofl2: They also have shocking reversion when rolling on from low rpm and played alsolute havic with the AFM but since changing over to a d-jetro the reversion doesn't effect the AFRs so it makes it less annoying.

The suction kit is Greddy with HKS filters and greddy hot side piping.

Couple of things I've been up to over the past week. I got the diffs done and all is good. definatly notice the front is now LSD. Will probably need to be aware of it on the track. Good though. While out testing the diffs out the clutch spun. Probably too much grip for it. So the gearbox is now out and the clutch is on it's way to Direct Clutch Services for a rebuild. hopefully have it all back togethern for our first sprint round next weekend. Also the new rotors turned up and I've dummy mounted them up to the custom hats. They are V8 supercar spec Alcons.
