awesome cant wait the australia laurels do seem to love resting for long periods of time haha

[Frenchie1001]

laurels always go, dunno what you guys are talking about.

[DannyC33]

my laurel runs fine, it just having a rest before gettin thrashed this year.

i plan on gettin alot of drift events under my belt this year.

[DannyC33]

so stadium drift was amazing!

entered street class with 5 other cars. most of them looked like track hacks not street cars but was still good fun, and i learnt a shit load.

friday practive was a bit dodgy with the weather track went from wet to dry a few times throughout the day, so was weird gettin used to the changin conditions.

saturday was perfect weather. sun was out, not to hot not to cold.

laurel performed beautifully all weekend right up untill the free expression session where the rack finally f**ked out.

i believe its worn the teeth out as the steering wheel moves a long way with the wheels not doin a hole heap. and i have more lock turnin right then left.

engine also decided it prefers its oil on the out side as it pumped about 4 litres of oil through the rocker cover breather.

and its been low on compression for a while now.

so i will be rebuilding the 20 and finding a new rack in the near future.

all in all i spent a shit load of money, melted a few pairs of tires, broke some stuff and have a freaking awesome weekend.

pics as promised. will post more as the photographers put more up.

there is a video on facebook that ill upload when i figure out how to save it from facebook haha

[RBC33]

Looks like you had a ball!

Laurel looks good too,

[DannyC33]

Had the best time ever.

And cheers mate.

[DannyC33]

well the engines coming out this weekend.

will be gettin stripped down and then parts will be ordered as needed on advice from the engine builder.

im tryin to decide if i should spend the money on gettin bigger cams. i keep hear very mixed reports on them.

opinions?

[Frenchie1001]

just buy a wrecker motor, heaps cheaper and easier.

[DannyC33]

Everyone keeps tellin me to do that. Haha.

Kinda just wonna build an engine though.

Didnt end up pullin the engine out as ive been crook. But will do somethin with it this weekend

[Frenchie1001]

waste of effort! either wrecker 20/25 and either td06 ls or t67 and spend what evr is left from built motor funded on driving.

[DannyC33]

Yep I decided last night whats the point.

25 will make the same figures I want easier and with less money spent.

Now to find a 25 locally.

And work out how to make it run.

Anyone got a link to the wiring that needs to be done for this?

[toffy]

the wiring is pretty simple , only changing the dash wiring and adding a power wire , i have a diagram somewhere , if i find it i will post it up

[DannyC33]

Thatd be awesome if you could toffy.

Anyone know of a 25 for sale in sa?

[DannyC33]

Engine found!

Picking up a series 2 rb25 engine package.

Less then 70k on the engine. Still in a running r33 which is auto and the most stock 33 ive ever seen.

Hopefully picking it up next week.

Runs amazingly. Never seen an rb idle so smoothly. No smoke. Revs smoothly. No noises.

Time to start pullin the 20 out.

[Samgrainger32]
