Mine does the exact same crunch changing from 3rd to 4th at peakpower, delay the shift for a second longer and mine doesn't crunch.

It's crunching because your syncro's are worn, you can reduce the amount they play up but trying some different thickness G/Box oil. there are different schools of thought as to whether to use thicker or thinner oil but i found that thicker oil worked in my box and now it never crunches. Having said that a slow shift is better for the box than slamming through the gears.

I wont be coming out, I really need to upgrade my brake lines and replace my brake fluid and also buy new pads, have less than 2mm left on my front pads after last prac day. Seriously think i'll have to upgrade brakes brakes soon, brakes are at their limit and i dont think they will take this punishment for much longer :) Why do good brakes have to cost so damn much :D If anyone knows of some good brakes for sale let me know :P

hey guys, is this like pretty much the same set up as drift practice, as in you can just pay on the day and have track time? or you you need other CAMS licence. Is it a competition so its all competeting against other cars or just practice? . is it open to any car? im keen to get my car on the track as i hardly get too drive it anymore, cheers.

rock up in the morning,

pay $100 + $25 for day licence if you dont have a cams one

get 5-6 sessions of 15min practice runs... no racing, no overtaking under brakes or into corners

hey chad, if youre serious about upgraded brakes, i know a guy on 31 club has picked up a couple sets of porsche brakes and is onselling a few (had to buy a half dozen sets to get a good price), might be a little overkill though...

calipers for 33 gtr aka 330 rather than the stock r32 296's ? or do u mean just the hubs and that the calipers fit with that size?

-D

You just need to cut off the dust covers, but other then that, everything bolts up fine. GTR disc's are 330mm front.

why not just go aftermarket slotted then.....

I am pretty sure there is a group buys section on slotted rotors in the main for sale section.....got my brakes from that GB and are awesome rotors....so far not a problem and going welll

    • Thanks mate 👍 The car was brought into the UK by a USAF mechanic until he was stationed back to the US, one owner later I bought her back in 2009. Luckily the only corrosion was on the sill seams, so once taken back to metal and treated and sealed all ok, I then undersealed the car myself and check yearly and treat any corrosion which to be honest is zero. She's garaged most of the time and hardly ever driven in the rain, but as you say most are rotten unfortunately, I was lucky in finding her as she was and still is in excellent condition.  
    • Stunning car.  Looks amazing!  You're in the UK?  How the hell do you stop your car rotting away beneath you?  British cars are the WORST I've ever seen in regards to rust.  Some of the cars SR Autobody have done are borderbeyond saving.
    • not a date code? or a foundry code? 
    • I have up to date pics of the engine build and turbo conversion over on my instagram @skpro_jects if you want to take a deeper look.   Basically the exhaust manifold is straight bolt on and the ports match (they arent any smaller than a 25 or 26 head).    the intake ports are different shape so the 20/25det manifold will bolt up but wont match properly or seal. You will need to port match using the 25det gasket as a stencil. Personally i ran the entire stock 20neo intake setup and have configured the swirl valves and torque valve to work based on my custom parameters to help with off boost response and spool. But this is using a standalone aem v2 ecu. The stock 20det ecu wont be able to control them.     
    • Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by
