lol, yeah keep the cardigan well hidden mate.

for sure the F1 was just insane for it's time. hard to contemplate. I went in one at age 16 in sydney and it was pretty special. ingrained in my memory. I would consider murdering for a serious drive in one.

F1 Longtail, definitely in the big mac orange !

Baron: that flat nose porsche is f**king sexual in race trim.

Mmmmm Quattro !

There is just too much nice stuff to think about !

Speaking of ruining threads, have you finished 98 yet ?

I don't see why more people don't go the long tail.

It's like ordering a salad roll, when I get a burger I want my meat and two veg !

lol, yeah I'm up to 99 now. just watched the first half of round 8, silverstone last night. schuey had a big smash on lap 1 (at stowe I think?) and looks to have broken his legs. not nice. :(

Oh for the love of God, get that bucket of bolts out of here!

Bloody HQ with a body kit. Or is that vice-versa..... either way, not aspirational.

Haha, sorry to gate crash the party but i just have a soft spot for those damned things. :wub:

Come on, all flaws aside they are one mean muscle car.

F1 GTR would be my pick of the maccas lot; Is like the Quarter Pounder (All meat and Protein) to the Roady F1s Big Mac (not quite man enough, leaves you wanting more) and the McFeast of the Long Tail (too much and only shows its advantages for short times)

How about a Dauer 962

IMO I think its about time the japs entered the super car group as they have proven themselves a worthy contender for years.

So yeah discuss/share stories.

Datsun / Nissan were competing against the Porsche 904 since the 1960's with the S54 2000 GT-B.

The R32 GTR was deigned to target the Porsche 959 and Group A Racing.

Due to the 'Gentlemen's Agreement" it had restricted the out right power and Porsche still saw the upper hand from factory.

But still knowing the GTR had massive potential with aftermarket support.

Same with Porsche themselves.

R35 GTR is now "Super Car" territory and competes with the Porsche 911 GT2 / GT3 / Lamborghini Gallardo / Ferrari F430, just to name a few.

    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
