Also funny how most said drag cars have double the ci except for the rotor's

And up to and over 5000bhp, multi stage clutches, full chromoly chassis and running on nitro methanol.

horses for courses..

I've just finished the manual box conversion to my Stagea. Next step is a brake upgrade, then I'll be hitting up Mallala for a track day.

Anyone wanna see how fast a "Volvo wagon" can go :)

didnt someone else have their 260RS out on the track day....that went alright

will find the consult port, got to use my laptop as speedo for a little while

until I fix up the connection to the tomei dash

If your speedo cable isn't connected to the dash then your laptop will not display speed - the sensor is in the speedo head.

I can run my car in both and 4WD is a f*kton better than RWD. RWD = wheel spin/limiter bashing at full boost in 1st & 2nd which = slow and gay, 4WD = over 300kw of traction and that throws you back in the seat like a mofo ;) No way in hell i would ever trade mine for a 300kw GTST.

Mine still spins and limiter bashes in 1st and 2nd..........in 4wd :P

its already an animal whats next :P

merry Christmas too Andrew will ring you soon about the simulation day would be good to see you in that

Cheers Steve, Merry Xmas to you too! I'll have to see whether I'm about for the Simulator day - already spend lots of time in sims.... but would love to come along!

2 litre SR20VET; 7.49 sec and the RWD's have it. Oh and that was the first full run ever in the car it running better times now.

Yeah, but yours is also running 1'15 around Mallala lol

Hmm, now I'm wondering if I'm faster around Lala with the 60hp proddie, or the Stagea! :( I've done 1m17s with 100hp.

Yes, I'm cheating and talking bikes again. :)

Remove slicks and replace them with street tyres and also take away the drag strip and put them on the street and the 4WD will kick ass!

Pretty sure we were talking about street cars driving on the street to start with were we not?

measure them, unless they are 296 x 32mm then they aren't GTR. R33 GTS-t's are the same diameter but 30mm. The regency inspectors will know the difference.

Oh and by the way the quote for the engineers report mentioned in that statement was $2500

dale you can fit 32 mm gtr discs under r33 calipers, I have done it on my bluebird. Inspectors wont know the diff, mind you gtr calipers arnt that expensive anyway. Also i loled at fitting r33 power steering.

selling the wheels and tyres it came with.

selling the 5-seats

selling the spare gearbox - we'd need to see if it is indeed a spare gtr box. its sitting in the boot still :D

pm me for details

great fun to drive, going to be heaps awesome out as a dedicated mallala track-biatch

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
