G'day

Im guessing seeing as there are some bikes heading down, that I would be able to bring my cressida out for the day?

I also went to the last one with my R33, but ownership has now been taken over by my dad and setup is being changed at present.

any car is welcome, we have had all sorts there in the past

Timeslip is about your own PB, however if you want to line up against your 2wheel brethren then pls feel free to do just that.

We have even had a Patrol run the quarter-it rocked lol

These days are all about comradery. Brotherhood/Sisterhood of car nuts. Not to say there wont be some true dragers there too

I was more thinking along the lines of bikes may not be allowed to run against cars incase he or she was to fall off at some point down the strip. But I would love to line up against a GTR and have a go! :)

Point taken, I will take my hat off to anyone with the balls to run a bike down the strip, cars seem scary enuf.

We take our lives in our own hands everytime we jump behind the wheel or handlebars on public roads, doing it at full noise down the Strip takes more guts on a bike than this nutter(toddlls) has got.

Still- if I have to die today then going out in style has major appeal to me whether on a strip or round a track-at least then it was doing something I truly love doin rather than die of the big C or some other horrid way to go

I have run against bikes in the past, but I haven't seen any cars race against bikes in a while.

Hopefully the last piece of the puzzle shows up today or tomorrow so I can fit the new turbo on the weekend :P

Im getting a bit of a tweak done on monday with the cressida

install of 550cc injectors

U.S Cam install

and more importantly- farkin speed cut sorted with the install of a pivot speed meter.

aiming for around 20psi

Times are still going to be shithouse but if i can get a decent amount of runs down I'll be able to see where my car is and hopefully get a decent mph.

Aiming around the 120mph.

ALSO - Made payment two nights ago- So im locked in Eddie

Sweet as, don't worry my times will be shitouse as I only have a little motor :P Though aslong as it does a good skid times are irrelevant :(

The last piece of my turbo setup arrived so it'll be all hands on deck :thumbsup: fitting it on the weekend.

Cant wait hey.

What are you talking about times will be shithouse. You should hopefully be hitting 12's when ya get ya new turbs on.

Hopefully get ya fuelrail issue sorted.

definately going to rip a couple of skids.

Atleast this time the weather isn't hopefully going to be "farkin hot degrees" in may. Nice cool air.

yeoooww!!

Yeah the extreme hotness of december was pretty brutal wearing all the gear to run the bike. I reckon I drank about 3 litres of water in 2 hours haha. May is going to be sweeeeeet :)

I really wanna get a low 11 this time tho :(

Yeah can't wait to race in the cooler air, last year my car lost 3-4mph after 3 straight runs.

Hopefully a 12.xx @ 110+mph is on the cards, but will be happy with a low 13.

    • Which are almost all nonsense. Ignore. Obviously enough, if it is not a porous block, then any such thing is a waste of time. External block surface? Would be a waste of time, if the block was actually porous. It would need to go on the inside, which is inaccessible, and even if the block was open deck so that that area was acessible, it would be unlikely to work. But seeing as this is all nonsense, stop worrying about it.   If the coolant is coming from the side of the block it is 10:1 odds that it is either a welch plug, or it is coming from the head gasket. Maybe from one of the coolant lines feeding the turbo, or even the heater. Liquids that leak from up high can travel sideways along casting surfaces or pipes, etc on the engine before finding a spot from which to drop.
    • Yeah rust is sadly also a bit of an issue on my car. Doubt there is many cars out there that actually have no rust in those aeas. The strut towers look fine but some of the surounding metal sheets show a bit of brown cancer peeking out from in between. I hope I can make do with external remedies and won't have to rip open the whole front end anytime soon. It looks somewhat minor compared to some shit I have seen online. I have worked on a few cars but I expect the RB26 to be my first 'engine out' job at some point.
    • Welcome Jan, It's very likely that you are in over your head. You'll just have to learn to swim hard and fast! These old rust buckets have more ways to bankrupt us than almost any other car. But hopefully there's nothing wrong that ruins the whole show! We can help a fair bit. There's plenty here who've been fixing these things for >25 years. cheers
    • Hi all. First off, thanks for reading my post. So end of last season I put the car away knowing I was leaking at least two fluids. One of them being rear turbo's oil. I went to my car recently that is waiting in a garage to take a peek with my boroscope to try and see if I can narrow down the souce of oil before taking it out of storage. What I found is not so great I think. The rear turbo is (probably) leaking from the oil drain. The hose and it's clamps are probably the original ones, so most likely just worn out or loose. However I spotted a line of rust going straight down from the turbo oil feed, as if water leaked out of there at some point. Also explains the red liquid that was dripping from my front subframe, which I initially thought was power steering. I can even see coolant drops hanging off the side of the oil pan as well. After a quick hit on the web I found a select few discussions about porous engine blocks. My question is if the pics of the turbo oil feed and the left hand side of the block (imgur link below) looks like it could be exactly that to you. Maybe someone in the community has seen it before and knows what it looks like. If it actually is a porously leaking block, has anyone attempted at fixing it with simple methods like putting a sealer in the cooling system and using something like jb weld on the block surface, or will it just leak in 2 weeks again? I could not find any detailed info or pictures on this topic. If I need a new engine, tell me softly. https://imgur.com/a/knVvmZ8
    • Hey all. I'm 23 and from Germany, September last year I bought a mildly modded 1995 GTR Vspec. Looks great and was fun so far, but I already have a list of issues of various severity that I need to take care of, potentially growing longer the closer I look. I just hope I'm not in over my head, I really want to keep the car and work towards it becoming great. I hope y'all will help me out in getting there, I am positive I will need help sooner rather than later to figure out how to proceed. greetings, some pics of the car I posted to imgur. https://imgur.com/a/StKkabz
