My car is basically smack on average GTR power, which sounds about right... My car is pretty average LOL.

Good day :) . Big thanks for Daniel for finding and Glenn for fixing my fuel pressure! Lucky I ran it yesterday... 15:1AFRs at full throttle at 6k RPM on 18psi wouldn't have been nice for it. :blink:

Was a good day! Skyline boys have a lot to get ready for the next one. Can't let kat flog you all time!!

Shame about those dodgy federal tyres ;)

I'm going to be orgainising a Supra/ skyline social day in a few weeks too!!

Yeah, who would buy Federal Tyres?? - They're just crap... :)

I'm looking forward to the Go-karting day that Ross suggested.

What are you smoking dude? All the cars were stationary, and no 200sx was there? :P

Ross generously donated half the profits from the BBQ to the club, so we now have $40 in the kitty.

Good turnout guys, a bit slow but in the end we out numbered the Supra's... just.

For those who like the stats

Average GTR power (excluding my single troubled run) 307.74kw

Average turbo Supra Power 352.98kw

Average non turbo supra power 143.5kw

Average GTS-T/GTT/GRUMBLEBEE power 240kw

Total skyline power 3424.9kw

Total supra power 3463.8kw

But using the stats we clearly won in this regard

Average power per litre GTR (excluding mine) 116.57kw

Average power per litre turbo Supra 115.94kw

Well that enough nerdy stats, clearly we won based on that last single stat :P

Anyone planning a 2.8 litre kit for next year?

Night all.

You have too much time on your hands John (oh and Its Grumblebee, not bumblebee)... :D

Anywho...

Thankyou to all who took part, it was a great way to spend a Sunday and it was great to speak with so many like minded people!

A huge thankyou goes out to the ESP guys and Ross for organising the event and running it so smoothly! - Well done!

Cheers

Mick :blink:

Will you be providing the on-street entertainment again next year Niko?

I hope everyone had as much fun as we did.

I think this can grow into a yearly event for our clubs and the start of other inter-club events.

We are not all evil...

Well I aim to please. At this point I would usually bring up something along the lines that next year it will be your mum and I providing the entertainment on the street, but I just don't know you well enough :thumbsup:

what was the result of the test? did the gutter pass?

Yes, yes it did. The tyres failed :) Bent a hub, no big deal. Another hub will be arriving here by the end of the week.

Come on guys... Give Niko a break, we have all been there before (well, most of us) and its not a nice feeling, even without people rubbing it in... :huh:

BTW - thanks for the 'threesome' John :thumbsup:

No worries Mick, I don't take banter to heart. In fact I was expecting some crap from Grant at the shop but to my surprise he turned around and said that if you never brush up a wheel or two in your lifetime, your not driving hard enough. Besides I probably deserve it :)

My mum's really old Niko, but I can see if she's available if you like :thumbsup:

And yes, we've all done something like that at some stage. Welcome to The Gutter Club.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
