Hey everyone, around february or so im getting a group of cars together to go to WSID and to have a bit of fun. They want to go to the track and test the cars to their full potential. I want to see if any N/A skylines would be interested in going, or really any N/A car that isnt over 6 cylinders(trying to keep it somewhat fair).

Current cars going:

My 300ZX -catback,pod,chip,UDP 131.4rwkw 5spd man - will have SAFC+tune by then

VR V6 - Bellmouth removed, Catback, Intake(pod,cai,tb pipe) 4spd auto

SSS - Catback & Pod - 5spd man

Lancer 1.8L Sedan - 4spd auto

Lancer 1.5L Coupe -Catback, pod+tb pipe - 5spd man

2004 Magna ES 3.5L - Stock - 4spd auto

Alfa romeo 156 Selespeed - Auto

Cars MAYBE going:

VL N/A - exhaust,pod, extractors - 5psd manual

300ZX Targa - pod - 4spd auto

I'm doing this in february as thats the earliest everyone will be free to go. Also as most of us are new to this, expect a bunch of 17 second slips :):(

yes yes, the P plate brigade is going to race, but atleast we're doing it legally! ;)

i might come if my car has all the body work done and i get new tyres. Cant go on the track with 2 semi slicks and another too that are mesh at the front =\ ANNND if i can hit the 5000km mark on the odometer then i will be able to push the car so i dont damage the new engine.

r33 GTS4 - RB27DE ( 50 thou piston upgrade) ... and a pod thats it! Kw ~Unknown~

Good on you guys for organising events like this.

It's great to see the stereotyped car enthusiasts getting out and having fun safely, and legally :(

Yeah, i'm trying to get a bunch of N/A's together and just have a good time and compare slips afterwards. So far the commodore & the magna are the only cars that look like they'll be a challenge. The commodore isn't like any other V6 one i've been in, it has stupidly high bottom end power and keeps up with higher powered cars very easily. Would be fun to get some quick N/A lines and supra's there along with whoever wants to go. If you have a turbo and want to show up feel free, i can get two or three other turbo R33's to come aswell.

YES! that sounds like it'd be pretty quick so if you can, show up.

I might be up for this.. Only ever been once with my 34 ran a 15.0, 15.1, 15.3 with my old bilsteins and crappy tyres that got too much wheel spin and 3" Kakimoto Full mega exhaust,

Got new suspension and might feel like giving it a proper go with or without new tyres to get under that 15 sec margin. Still painfully slow

Preferably go after the 15th so ill have the money.. haha

+1 guys. The track is great. Good to see some smart young blokes still exist haha.

:(:( lol hope the road aint wet :(:)

We all know cheap $199 semi slicks are not aloud on my car ever again! Toyo Proxie T1R's are more like it!

Yeah hopefully if jason helps me finish the car off it will be down in my car :)

Once i buy my list from NENGUN it should be a lot better.

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
