Just letting you guys/gals know we have entered our R35 GTR in the Mountain Mile this year :)

www.mountalmamile.com

Its a bloody fast bit of road thats around 300m straight before the first corner, so you should get to see a GTR at full noise 200km/h before the tip in. Some SAUSA support would be great! :P

If you're keen it's on the 10th & 11th April in Hindmarsh Valley

Sounds good Martin, I'll pop that in my diary so I don't forget

Awesome stuff! :rofl:

I'll be sure to pop that in my diary. I'll bring that up for discussion at the next SAU-SA meeting.

:P

Crap I better enter so I can show you guys how it's done then *cough cough*

Slight change of plans ... I might be there for the 2 days working as a race official. I haven't done a local event for a long time :laugh:

If you see a race official jizzing his pants everytime the GTR goes past ... that'll be me :action-smiley-069:

Martin,

It will be great to see the beast out there, who's driven?

How do you think you'll go against a 260z with a pushrod V8 backed up by a Turbo 400 trans with Hilux diffs and transfer case?

haha, good way to describe a nascar V8 crate motor.

not a bad bit of gear that car, doesn't seem to go round the corners too well but due to its sheer straight line speed its fast.

I may of glossed over the 800hp 6 litre Alloy Chev. It is an awesome combination that you would never dream of in a million years. I think he said it was good for about a 10 second quarter.

Here is some in car from arrarat, have a look at what you hit if you f*%k up

Edit - My original post should of read "Who is Driving"

    • 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.
    • get some flares on them, or wider guards haha
    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • 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.
