Hi all, my name is Chris and i have been meaning to join SAU VIC for a while now and tonight i finallysent off my payment for membership and thought i had better introduce myself.

I own a 1993 S1 R33 which i bought about a year ago now and am absolutely in love with it, i am also buiding an R31 track car (primarily for drift) as that is one of my other passions, i used to spend most of my time filming and taking photo's of the various vicdrift track days and drift australia events but couldnt shake the feeling that i was missing out on all the fun, i'm really looking forward to getting out and doing some track days and other events with all the other SAU members and cant wait!!!!.

Here's a few pics of my baby for those interested.

Cheers -Chris

Hey thanx for the warm welcome guys, my r31 is a series 3 silo, gutted and locked diff, non-turbz(i wanna keep it n/a and see what she'll do), s13 coils and r32 power steering rack, should be some fun when i get the engine sorted but its been on the back burner a bit since i bought the 33, and yeah the camber arms are going into the 33 soon, then its gonna get slapped on its guts, at the moment it looks like a 4WD it sits up so high LOL!!. I bought the car from someone on these forums so yeah its probably the same one you saw for sale.

    • Unfortunately,  it feels like it's been on the decline for nearly a decade. Especially as wallet racing became popular with them(biggest wallet can pay off a car that wins). It seems like a different mindset kf ownership these days. But, hopefully people like yourself keep some of the skyline scene alive.
    • A bit of data is always good, beats the Facebook experts with their opinions Although the kWs aren't anywhere near what you are after, it should give you a good indication. I have Bosch 1480cc injectors, often called 1650cc (only when run at 4bar). I run mine at 3bar base so I don't thrash the fuel system. Up top, making 437kW with boost dropping, injector duty is at 69% on E80 (might have had some residual 98RON in there)  
    • I have some downtime due to winter, and just wrapped up converting the car over to flex fuel. We don't get E85 at the pump over here in Canada, but I will be running Ignite E90 Race gas. I'll be mixing it with 99-100 RON pump gas and shoot for 50% ethanol content, up to possibly 85% content if there's any noticeable gains. Here's the question. Most I'll ever want to hit is ~600rwkW. I've currently running 1200cc injectors and want to keep them under 90% duty cycle. As per some online injector calculators, I should be good with 1200's well past 600rwkw on E85. As per other calculators, I'll need 1600-2000cc's. The variety is rather amusing.  With you Australians having E85 at the pump, what realistic duty cycles are you seeing in those kW ranges on E50 & E85 on your injectors? Thanks, 
    • No issues here with my PRP gears in an OEM pump housing. I did confirm all housing clearances were to spec prior though. Cheers. 
    • Thread is a bit old but figured id give my input anyway just incase. Have had lots of water problems in my R32 and was getting sick of wet tools in the boot and water filling up half my taillights. I ended up finding that whenever my car had been repainted they didn't reseal the taillights to the body of the car so water was just flowing straight into the boot, this is amplified by all the water around the bootlid being directed down to the taillights so would get pretty wet whenever I washed the car or it rained. You could probably use silicone to seal them to the body but I think from factory they use a roll of automotive grade butyl rubber. Hopefully this helps you if that ends up being how the water is getting in on your car!
