The 550ft time shows easy 10s and this thing has a wild topend so things were only going to get faster.

This car made 580rwhp@ only21psi and mild timing because it still has a stock gearbox but remember that 580rwhp is at least 640 to 660 on the APA dyno.We have boost in every gear inc 1st and about 12psi more boost and 5 deg more timing to use when the box go's in.

I garranty this is currently the fastest GTR in Perth as no other GTR has as broad power band and the best part is Ant built it in his Back yard.

Yes we will prove this asap.

11.47 on factory inturnals was a great effort when huge dollar shop specials only went 2/10s faster but thats history now wait for the new year when Ant and Danny are in full flight.Ants car is not as big dollar as people want to think but is well thought out and sensible parts brought inc the Wolf plugin ECU that worked out of the box with no problems with out needing CDI and Spitfire coils etc.

Good to see an R33 GTS run 12.3 on wed night with 306rwhp on good rubber.

This car was only a 25/40 bolton turbo, Wolf plugin ECU, intercooler + exhaust.

Can't wait to see ND4SPD run now it has 280hp more than this GTS at only 21psi and soft timing,we have left it soft because we have to race Tango1 on tuesday at the plex and didn't want to upset the commish of police.Then we can put good fuel in and crankit up.580 is the highest power run by a GTR on a Shootout accredited dyno in WA sofar!

Cant wait to head down with the slicks steve. If they ran 12.3 with 306hp we should run high 11's with my setup :D

high 11's  

low chances

and dont 33's only weigh like 1400kg dont go complaining about weight till you got 1700kg + driver soarer to tug around town  

i got 299hp and will be lucky to see 13.5 with happy go lucky single wheeler diff and nice stock auto

Mate they ran a 12.3 with a 306hp r33, sorry 1400kg whale, last I looked I have the same 1400kg whale but with 339hp. Sorry to hear about your auto box... cant you drive a manual?

Its easy to run 11s on the forums.My car runs 13.2 with 340hp.Im sure it would go quicker with 280hp and a broader power band.That is my turbo is big enough to spin a dyno but on the track lag is killing me.

Maybe i need 3 feet too Bogrolls!!!!

Gimme the keys dude. :thumbsup: Some driver brutality will have that running 12's with a doddle. And lag ?? You aint changin gears quick enough .

I forgot to mention though that the 12.3 was done with a driver that actually knows how to drive. Sorry but that rules out 90% of r33 drivers.

Simple - less smiling more anger :D

John id be amazed if you did a 13.5 - the cars got more then a 13.5 in it - lean her out some more and go for it .

oh ive been leaning it out baby not much more but a little reset the ecu and its going much harder now

now remember kids ping is power.

i weighed bens XD falcon in wangara yesterday and actually thought "i wish my car was as light as his"

(a jenny craig inspiring 1520 less driver)

might rip some shit out of mine and plex it in the new year

    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
