brisby, my car is so far from 22s its not funny. id love to know where 4 seconds is hiding... i can account for 2 secs max with the current set up. i will be back to give it a red hot go. Today was meant to be about shaking the car down and giving Mick some seat time so effectively i had one session with 2 clear flying laps.. i also had a whole session of datsuns and rexs spinning in front of me..

im much more keen to get back to PI to smash out a time there... corners ftw!

Well done Dean with the 1.22. nearly had a RWD on top of the list for a change.

Dean Taylor did a 1:22.0!!!!!!

Thats an awesome effort.

BBGTR was looking very strong out of the last corner, and boy does she let out some flames.....

Thats awesome! Good work Dean, i was starting to think that i was insane for thinking more of the later model rwd boys should be up in the 22 bracket! The Datsun boys are flying too these days :)

I had a great time yesterday.

Was SOOO thankfull that the rain held off all day .

sorry to see Chris' car had engine dramas, hope its nothing to major.

Highlight was the run where I was chasing mick in ryans car. SO nearly had him at turn one ( he locked up big time lol)

Just struggled on 3 or 4 tight corners to get lateral grip. Was very entertaining though.

Had a major moment and dandy kink. pushing a lil hard only me and Wayne- Rchoo will know how much of a moment it was lol.

BRIS best for the day was 1.28.5. Not sure how to get to 22s , 24s is reachable with tyres and a few other lil adjustments,

Here is a pic my lil bro took just before lunch.

With the same turbo setup and brake setup your car can definitely do a 1:22, i dont know what you have with regards to suspension but my old Bilsteins were not anything great so.... you need to bin the 18s and go lighter 17s with decent rubber :(

I am mega pumped and catn wait to get back behind the wheel later this year. LOL i bet my car will be slower with all the new mods :(

Brian track days require 2 balls... and i hadn't been off yet so thought it was about time. I had a great day, dipped into the 1:26s for the first time, was trying to go quicker than the Sil80 coz that always makes for a bit of fun but little mistakes cost me. And i have less power so i guess it was expected there.

As for the 1:22's there is a big difference at sandown between a car like the brisby mobile that has 260rwkw and the suspect 220rwkws sil80. I'd say thats a good number of seconds right there.

Twas a great day with no rain coming in the end, started to be able to pick off a few of the faster wrx's in my group too which is always fun.

Bad luck to Chris stacey too, hope it turns out ok.

what ever happened to the days when group 1 was full of rediculously quick gtr's and getting into a track day meant you had to enter as soon as the forms came out!?

what are the hsccv days like? i'm addicted now

I think you might want to upgrade your brake pads and fluid before going to the next one,

those brakes were overheating in 2 flying laps

Combination of the GFC, Targa and softness on the account of the rest..... :D

Yeh, Sandown is all about grunt. But my 23.1 was with 230-235rwkws as i was only running 15psi. At PI i used 18-19psi to do the 52 flat. So i did a 25.2 at Sandown with my old ICE tune and the 10cm housing which was a laggier 222rwkws. I ran Dutton / Sandown with 260 and went slower at 1:24.2 or something :D Not posting to fly flags, simply pointing out that i think Ryan needs to throw his car on the dyno and get the tune looked at, i suspect its simply not making the power it should.

As others have said, power rules at Vic tracks, Sandown being the most obvious example, lol probably the reason i like it... :P

    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work 
    • You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
