I still can't get over all those tough GT-Rs...

Please someone tell me that you guys collectively get together and enter all those GT-Rs into Car Shows? Like 10 GT-Rs in 1 stand?

Nothing will get the Japs attention more than a 7 second GT-R or a car show stand with 10 big-power GT-Rs in Oz.

I only had a quick glance, but I didn't see any pics of GTR-700 in there. Rezz, those GT-Rs lined up are all Autostyle (a car dealer) car's... well customer cars. As Roy pointed out, they all had dyno charts stuck up on their windows with 400kw+ readings... but none of them raced?

Also there was a maroon ECR33 with a 3L/T88 combo (and a ton of stickers) - did anyone see it run? Had gold RB26 covers on the engine but was a RB25 head...

I have only ever seen Dominics yellow gtr run a 10.5 the rest havent run....

Although they Were at Flying 5th (Bathurst) But didn't do to good...Comparing to other Cars that raced...

They are well presented cars and Most of them Have over 400kw at the treads...But it would be good to see the autostyle cars having ago at putting some numbers down To prove there power figures...

But i must say they look CRAZY!!!!

DoughBoy, I have quite a few shots of GTR700 both preparing to race and with the bonnet up in my gallery.

Also that maroon 33 GTsT you refer to is owned by Da_Man who checks this forum ;) He ran a flat 12 but told me that he is concerned about going quicker as it would require a few additions to his car (to meed ANDRA safety requirements) that he cannot perform in time for future drag combat events (namely QLD this weekend)

As far as the autostlye cars are concerned I read in the Autospeed article posted earlier that Tim plans to hit the Wednesday night street meets soon

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...

      Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...

      They also make them with the motor mounted on the side

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
