Hey now, I distinctly remember knocking a 400+awkw GTR out of the battles with a sub 150rwkw Supra! Unsure who was driving but that at least has to be a mark of shame on the NSW wall.

That's funny I remember a NSW supra (stock auto) knocking out a VIC supra the time before last...

:D

The mark of "spew" at the dinner table will never be surpassed

In the end a supra which everyone calls a boat took out 2nd overall ahead of any other GTR...so "TEH GTR CAN LOSE"...if only occasionally...hehehe...

I did some numbers the other day and if i didn't end up with a 1 x WD, and 2x 4WD helli sessions, my scorecard would've had a top 10 easy.

But fk that, 4WD helli's are much more entertaining, as is smoke pouring outta the air vents for 5mins afterwards.

I can't wait to go upto a mates "bogan" DECA as well call it where it's just blown V8's doing summernats style burnout displays... I'll show em what 4WD helli's are about :D

sounding like a true race driver there Ash.

- if i had AO50's

- if i had another 50rwkw

- if i had more experience

- if the sun was higher in the sky

- if the air pressure was higher

- if i hate eaten lamb instead of pork last night

Not a chance that i "wouldnt' have gotten lost. I dont have the brain functionality to remember some of those maps LOL

Nah not true. Maybe on long wang but that's it. 200 is a good number that you could prob get with your setup and that's definitely enough.

I'm not to surprised about that to be honest, alot of the gtr's and evo's got beaten by 'lesser' cars. I was actually quicker on the skidpan then most of the 'better'' cars. Its not the car but more the driver that'll determine how good your times are, you could put the stig in a fwd diesel golf and he would still be quicker then all of us haha.

Over a 30-40 second run though there really isn't "that" much of an advantage for any car really.

Just comes down to going the right way, not hitting cones for the most part.

One cone can send you from top 5 to outside the top 10, same for a WD/DNF

Yeah the LW is def noticable.

and I cannot believe the difference suspension set-up made since the last outing..(roughly the same HP as then)

But I recon 220-230 in something like mine would be about perfect. maybe cut a little weight out as well..(that's from me not the car..)

Plus a diff that locked properly would be nice as well..

that said the car is def faster then me I just have to learn to drive it to it's limits!

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      At this point I'm just 'hoping' it's the turbo seals. I did speak to someone who said it's normal for these turbos to have a bit of axial play? Not gonna lie I've never checked a turbo for axial play before but you could hear it tapping a bit as I moved it back and forth. Surely that's too much? My theory is (could be completely wrong), bad axial play, worn bearings, bad seals, oil into dump/compressor side, burns in exhaust = blue smoke. On a timing belt related note, my crank pulley was missing that front plate that sits in front of the timing belt. It's that metal round plate. It did have the rear one, and the woodruff keys are in the crank which was nice. Can anyone confirm if the NEO det engine has a front plate, im sure it would to protect the front of the timing belt or something. Water pumps...the pump I got was an NPW (yes grill me if I should've got a genuine one lol). It has a smooth mating surface, kit came with a pretty pathetic looking paper gasket. Do I need to use any RTV or just trust the gasket will work because its a smooth mating surface? Cheers legends have a good Easter break!

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Cheers man, I thought the same.   Bit of an update on it all. It was definitely blue smoke, not grey after all. It didn't really smell oily but it was blue after all. Also puffing just the smallest amount on idle with no throttle.   I ended up pulling the intake and exhaust off and there was around 3mm of axial play on the turbo shaft. So I figured we'll that's buggered and sent it off to get hi-flowed at hypergear. Haven't got it back yet.   I haven't compression tested it yet. Had a look in the cylinder and cylinder 1 spark plug, looked a bit sooty but not oily. Then I've just started doing my timing belt because it's age is unknown.

      In that case it is probably stock. It lives in the navigator side footwell behind the plastic trim just in front of the a pillar.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      This. I'm confused by the whole discussion. The only reason you would have a car with e85 only if it was track use and you only ever used e85. All other use cases you add a flex fuel sensor, do the flex tune (you only need to do a couple of % and then interpolate the rest) and then you put whatever the hell you feel like including a mix in the tank and it just works. Want a long drive? fill with 98 Want max zoom? fill with e85 Got a half tank of 98 then find e85 somewhere? Throw it in.
