Intradasting, i found that Winton was easier on the car than a place like Sandown. Plenty of run offs too incase something went wrong.

without a doubt I would classify winton being nicer on a car, lower speeds more run off more technical so HP does not always win.

sandown you need big brake and HP

as they say it's 2 drag strips linked by a couple of corners

I will be too.

driving it felt much quicker than the stagea at 300kw, although that car was extremely laggy.

torque definitely feels good in it though. a very different car to what i've owned.

Intradasting, i found that Winton was easier on the car than a place like Sandown. Plenty of run offs too incase something went wrong. Did you drive the Pulsar? According to Natsoft you were in a 180sx?

Higher revs at lower speeds and warm humid air wasnt doing the turbos any favours.

Was in the pulsar, not sure why it says that. Im not even sure I did 20 laps either hmmmm. But yeah, you can see on the results the crazy mix of times with classes. the next fastest car from me in the Newbies class was 5 secs quicker, and then another 5 secs for the next fastest.

Tony what RWKW and brakes are you expecting to have for sandown?

Im booked in on Monday to see Trent for the tune.

Im expecting a track tune of 270rwkw Im guessing.

Brakes as per normal. DBA4000 but getting EBC blues from Richo. Previously had Resma's

It's funny but I get my faster lap times at the end of each session when I get into the groove of things, where my car starts to overheat, didn't notice much brake fade. But then maybe I'm not pushing it hard enough :P

Will def need to sort out cooling issues though to get the most laps out of each session. Oil temps was already up to 130c in about 4 laps in the afternoon.

    • Updated with the latest <68mm Xona Rotor turbos.  The two XRA options are on paper some of the compressor performance I've seen 
    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
