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.

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?

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?

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.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
