Yeah, that little sideways on the warmup lap was the lock stops (it doesn't have much lock at all), nice catch Mark :)

IMO, that really is some excellent driving for a guy who's been to Bathurst twice in two years, in two different cars.

have to agree. Bathurst has to be the most damanding track in the country with those fast blind corners over crests and stuff with concrete lining the edge of the track. In the vid he looks like he's been going there for years like the pros. very impressive!

is the plan to race sport sedans when its sorted? Would be great to see this thing on telly mixing it up with Hossack & Ricciardello! Definitely has the potential in both car and driver.

The downforce was unbeliveable at speed.

Mark was astonished with force trying to make him part company with the seat over the crests, it was litterally trying to lift you out of the seat the car was stuck to the road so hard.

Any predictions for the time when the car finally sees Lakeside? (was to be this sunday but lack of all wheels driving put an end to that :))

I have NFI what's realistic to expect at those low flying type of speeds!

Sport Sedan record is 51.12 by Briggs in his Chev Civic in 1996. That's a seriously great time. Faster than the V8 Supercars ever went. Their record was 51.44 by Seto. Skaife ran a high 52 in the GTR in qualifying in 1991.

the revised track is certaily a little faster... but he has to learn the track and the car is still so new... I dunno, but it will be awesome to see. you have to let me know when its happening! Put me down to lend a hand as crew if needed.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
