yep your right Paul, i definately wasnt having traction issues with mine.

next time im going to run with less fuel, i had a full tank because i trailered my car there, gonna try under half a tank next time. and a few more little tricks

Hahaha none of those tricks here mate, sh!t tyres, full fuel tank, stereo playing aswel haha plus 110kg of driver :D

im keen for the next one, i really wanna beat that time, i heard that if his record is broken he will bring his car back to aus to win it back, and if i win it i will be there waiting for him so we can have a hill climb battle :D

is that when your doing a massive burnout and then they make you sit on the bench for 2 runs :rofl2:

not at the redneck hill climb event.

the current record is set by an evo lancer from europe that has won pikes peak, ran 23.88 and i ran 24.51 from memory or there abouts in my almost stock GTR

i cant believe you are 1/2 sec off the lap record...what model evo is this? any pics of it?

also, is the evo prupose built for this event or is it a porduction car with simple mods?

either way, you must be a very skillful driver!

Lol, something like that!! I just went "come on that's a skid, want me to show you a burnout?!" then on went the radio and I watched the others have their goes hahaha

If you take the record I'll be cheering!!! Paul is in the 24's, he needs grip and he's got it. Also Brett (not on here, White 32, stock motor, steel wheeled stock turbos, etc RE55's though) did a 25.3 I think, it was with 250rwkw lol, so yeah the old men know we will get there.

Better tell the evo guy to organise freight then ;)

Oh also, I'll get some decent rubber for the next one I'm in.

I may miss the next one due to mods being done to the hotside but I'll try. Either way, you know I'll be there to support you guys

Someone pinch Berry's 33 or 34 lol

Why bother, we all drive there, full interior, stereo and aircon. We are all in the top 30%, then drive home after in the same cars with no mechanical faults time after time.

It's great to see the faces when they realise these are true street cars.

haha you know it :D

the evo is purpose built.

i remember a few of the old guys asking how much GTR's are worth, they seem keen to get in the seat of one

Haha. Yeah. Those guys in pupose built hillclimb machines.... IE Twin engined crap, on slicks, areo. Yep we still beat them. Stipped out commo's with cages and slicks.... 2-3 seconds behind. The commentator reckons I have an auto box! What a loser!

FFS. We have to get that vid on here to show these guys what it's about!

Pitty we can't take passengers!

    • Por qué no los dos? Body colour red with black stripes down centre, onto bonnet and bootlid.
    • From my bolts, standard M8 with 1.25mm thread pitch (M8x1.25mm).    Length is 19mm under the head and has a captive 18mm OD flat washer.   20mm length from a bolt shop is what you'll be able to get.   Make sure they're zinc plated.    If you're concerned about strength, grade 8.8 will be more than enough. Original PN is 01121-04971.  Now discontinued according to Amayama but that's because it's one of the parts that's been captured by the Heritage program, which explains the ridiculous price.   New PN is 01121-RHR20: https://nismodirect.com/nismo-heritage-bolt-pin-hinge-hood-bnr32-nissan-skyline-gt-r-01121-rhr20-01121-04971/ About AUD33 converted from Yen in the above link but that's just one example. Interesting that the hinge-to-body bolts are still available non-heritage.....PN 08116-8161G around $2 each (amayama).    Same thread but 16mm long.
    • Well, if that filter was impeding fluid flow, then it could have similar effects to faulty solenoids. The TCU will register a fault when it does something (ie, changes the state of a solenoid) and does not detect the required result. If there are other causes that can make the same lack of result, then they will be indistinguishable to the expected cause for which the TCU has a code.
    • Yellowjackets, red ones, blue ones (other than Splitfire) have all been demonstrated to be unreliable on turbo engines. That unreliability can be anything from outright failure (ie, 4 out of a set of 6 working out of the box) to just not being strong enough for the task, on a boosted engine. Not enough of us care about NA engines to know whether that unreliability is an issue for the undemanding needs of an NA RB20. I should think though that the DIS-008 should fit the 20. There's not really any reason for the head/coil mounting area to be any different on those 2 Neos. I wouldn't be buying Splitfires, or any other old tech coilpack, for a car in this day and age though. I would buy modern pencil coils and do what needs to be done to adapt them to the loom. That's relatively trivial these days, with numerous kits for fitting R35, or Audi, or Yaris/Corolla coils.
    • Keen to see how much work is needed to get an abandoned Skyline going. My R32 has been sitting idle for three years or so but finally got some time to get it going again. (Also lurking SAU and trying to hit 10 posts so I can start my own intro thread with pics)
