Excellent,

I'm thinking of bringing the WRX out for this one if I can get the front camber sorted out.

Or I might just bring the ute and setup a BBQ for everyone, not deciced yet. I doubt the skyline will be making an appearance though, dispite how much I want to get out there and smash out another PB, on film this time!

oooOOoooooo

I rang a checked with the caretaker for track clearance the other day and all is good :) , just incase anyone was wondering :thumbsup:

You actually going to turn up for this one Toff? :nyaanyaa:

I'll come down for a look...

hmmm new 25/30 needs running in..... :thumbsup:

i plan on mate pinch.gif , the last one was out of my control to miss :down: . I thought you didn't like 25/30???

... I wouldn't ever put one in my GTR but it came up cheap with forgies, so I pulled it down checked the clearances and screwed it back together. Besides, you cant bitch about somthing untill you try it. :whistling:

See how it goes....

yeeer I run em in hard... no point f'n about.

Mine spent it's whole first day on the limiter, mostly because I was too busy screaming to think about throttle control whistling.gif

yeah especially considering the result from powercruise.

have you not questioned that event already? and it was explained?....

Last time I was reading about them, hoseclamps didn't have anything to do with running in engines

Edited by jangles

yeah and when i questioned it you stated that you blew a cooler hose, and after the cloud of black smoke cleared and you drove back to the pits i asked you what happened and you told me that you forgot the anti lag and it died, i have a great video ill have to dig up for ppl to see, remember at the start line off of the street drags almost on the limiter and the starter guys gives the go ahead and bang, you get creamed and left in a cloud of smoke, funniest thing i ever seen....

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
