intercooler is gone was 22kgs.. the weight saving was far more important than the cooling..

of course we have done other things to help with charge temps...tuning etc..

we ran 10 psi less boost with the new turbo so the engine side is all happy..

we learned we meed some stiffer rear springs .

bigger rear tyres if possible...

a driver that shifts at the correct shift point not 1000rpm late and locks the clutch up solid in every gear..

hence car out of control..too many late nights.....

and need to private hire the track to get all this sorted...

cheers, mark

  • 4 weeks later...

just got back from the summernationals in sydney...

we had 2 runs before the rain hit..

8.2 at 176mph with a 1.68 60ft... the the line lock was playing up and crept in stage on the 2step.

left with no boost went 136mph at 1/2 track down 12mph....so 40 mph from 1/2 track is promissing..

went 1.6 60ft in the second run 8.1 at 174mph.. car crept again before i could even antilag it...

anyway thats racing... we had it all fixed for the 3rd qualifier when the rain hit...

bloody long drive for 2 runs.. ha ha

sounds really promosing mark, the car seems to be getting a bit of a following outside of the sport compact world now aswell which is great for you. well done

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
