Thanks guy's I love it.

Ben your a funny bastard. Nice work at targa by the way.

Neil.

Cheers Niel! It really does look the goods, I imagine it'd be a good thing to experiment with susp setups too, would be very responsive to change?

I know its the video thread, sorry to get off topic gents.....

Circuit: Sandown and Phillip Island

Car: R32 Skyline GT-R.

Driver: Me.

Lap time: Phillip Island 1.47.6 and Sandown 1.21.2 (neither of which I got any footage of, :D )

Camera: GoPro Hero mounted on my cage.

Great vid mate, and wel done in your first race! Nice to meet you out there too. Hopefully next time I can hang around a bit longer!

I'm planning on making my race debut at Lakeside next month...

Awsome, I plan on trying to make that event too. what a track to race at. I went out there april last year for an untimed sprint day. there was a race meeting the day after so i guess we were sweeping the track for them. By days end I was clocking regular 60 sec laps. I imagine racing there and on the new surface will be totaly different though.

found some incar form Gatton this year in the same car

And Lakeside last year from early in the day before the battery went flat. I was pulling 5th before the bridge after lunch and got braver onto the front straight. Damm batteries.

cool! yeah, Lakeside has to be the best track I've ever driven! The new surface is a bit quicker. Still bumpy, but its a bit grippier and the turn onto the front straight is wider as is the kink, which is a bit of a shame as its taken a bit of the challenge out of it. Rest of the track is the same, just resurfaced.

Here's my lap of Lakeside in my Supra (sold it last week) earlier this year on the new surface:

  • 3 weeks later...

Circuit: Wakefield Park

Car: Toda Civic - 2litre NA.

Lap time: 68.3 seconds best

Camera: Ebay Digital cheapie from China - Velcro'ed onto a rear bar

9/10

LOL, you are a bigger lunatic then me...i love it :laugh: Great vid!

Thanks..It was towards the end of the day when I slapped on some used 225s to see if it made a difference. Kinda forgot that I needed to warm up the tyres abit more. Previously always using 205s..Interestingly, times dropped by slightly more than a second once the 225s were up to temp..

    • Welcome. This is not really true. We have a whole forum here just for the NA shitboxen. And they are not very different from the turbo shitboxen. Just weaker brakes and gearboxes, and no LSD, for the most part.
    • I'm pretty sure it has an 040 in it @Duncan Also reading up, that turbo should top out at 250 as you first thought. It will be interesting to see how early it chokes due to the changes in the head too
    • Yeah confirmed they are Nismo 555s, found the boxes in the spares with the factory injectors in. Yeah the AAC has been relocated to allow reuse of the factory brake booster line, and yes confirmed it has a 1 way valve in it. Unfortunately the one on the car is cracked, I'll need to replace it. Pretty sure I've got all the AAC plumbing correct in my previous post, but I am going to source some new fittings with 90o angles to help with the hose routing and also one really specific moulded shape for the AAC intake to cold start hose (will raid the back of our local repco when I get a chance and work out some combo that works) One of the big things I learned in the GTR is you need to be able to get your hands all around the bay when something goes wrong. I've done a bunch of re-routing now and it should be much more practical now. Also got the BOV mount re TIG-ed by the local engineering shop so that should be good to go now. Never got to the fuel pump because of some life stuff today, but will pull it to confirm it is suitable for 300rwkw when I get a chance
    • Hello everyone, I am from Malta and have recently bought myself a fully stock 1992 Nissan Skyline GTS. It has the RB20DE engine and thus is NA. Unfortunately, not a lot of information can be found online related to the GTS, unlike the information for GTS-T and GTR variants. Apart of the Skyline, I also got a 1984 Porsche 924 2.0l NA and a 2002 Renault Clio 1.5DCi for everyday use. Excited to be apart of the community and perhaps get better information on cars such as the GTS.
    • The fuel pump bracket just slides straight up.  Below is a pic I stole off a site. But basically put hand in for fuel pump, wiggle it all about a bit while pulling up.
