Hey guys. Once again the Mt Alma Mile hillclimb is upon us.

The event is held Sat 2nd and sun 3rd april @ Mt alma in the Inman Valley (between vicot harbour and Yankallila)

It's run over a 1.6km closed road and has multiple viewing points

This year out of 150 entries there is at least 15 skylines entered including keir wilson's R35 GTR - 9 R32's a couple of R33's and at least one R34

more details can be found here Mt Alma Mile Website

I was thinking about organising a group to cruise down on Sunday morning.

Meet up down south and head further south, if any one is keen, let me know and i'll Pm some details.

Hopefully see some of you there

Not really fussed, whenever really, I'll have to see if I can get the time off of work first.

In our team of four cars we have both our GTRs running - R32 GTR RH9 in full attack mode, and our R35 complete with new engine, bigger turbochargers (WR35TTR), and a new wheel tyre package. Should be interesting times for the Skyline fans :)

Great team that - should be at the pointy end of the field :whistling:

New Engine??? what happened???

We decided to put in a fresh engine with some good upgraded internal bits :)

That way the original sits on the shelf still running strong after 2.5 years of track work.

Lifing components is a very important part of racing cars, and much cheaper than letting them break!

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
