Amazing build thread.

Would love to get a build done in similar fashion to this one down the track for my S15 once I'm out of uni and have a well-paid job.

John Skola seems like a genius, it's a shame this is the last build he is doing.

don't see it there, sorry

you mean there's a window for each runner that exits from the billet collector and into 2 'wastegate collectors', and then from the 2 wastegate collectors into each wastegate?

Each runner has a waste hole. Spilt pulse billet collector each side has three hole that exit through one waste gate same for the other side. The three holes total the area of one gate. The exit of the gate is then vented in the dump as a Venturi

You seem to have blind faith in johns ability to engineer the car, it's almost religious...

You keep comparing to f1, rally and indy car racing with their research and development, with the costs and success that come from it.

But realistically you are carrying out research and manufacture. You come up with a idea, think it's the best, tell everyone it's the best without even testing it.

The reason why the motorsport teams get things so right is because they get so many things wrong and then head back to the drawing board, I just hope for your sake you spent all this money on something that works first time!

I have to agree with you mate. And personally, I think action speaks louder than words. Lets see when this project gets done and put it to the real world and see how it does will prove more than anything. Put it in WTAC against some of the best EVOs and s2000 and rx7 out there. Or take it to japan and run it against MINES R34 GTR as that is said to be the ultimate response machine. The real world will judge where this car stands :)

Yes the ultimate result will be in action and events and even a personal run in the car 8).

Wtac is going to be one of the events I'd like to enter. And want to race it down the quarter also.

Awesome Bobby, you spending the weekend there? Or just there for the show on Sunday? Hopefully see you over the next few weeks :)

Yeh I remember talking to you about boxes before.

U have gone so far and done some amazing things engineering wise so you may aswell top it all off with a great box aswell.

Should bring out the best of the set up.

Thats CHEATING!

For some reason I thought you were going with a 2.8lt. Not 3lt. Unless your planning on running a 2.8 crank with SR20 rods as a high deck... Doubt that though, its hard to beat displacement.

Hey Ian .

No it's not the 3L it's the os88 os giken sequential gearbox.

    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.
