John, is it going to be back to back 10 min sessions all day. Its just that if i drive up from Melbourne i want to be sure to get plenty of track time...are you planning any 1/8 mile or go to Whoa?

Whats an estimate number of 10min sessions a driver will get? I wont talk it up as i wont be able to keep up with the Zed or any of the GTRs :D ...

This is going to be gold to watch

(waits for John to read this)

What's happening on sunday? And what's this got to do with me?

You're the one that said that there's "no such thing as Z power" and that you have "never copped a whooping befor[e]"

So you've never driven at Wakefield before... How much circuit racing experience do you have? :D

Pffft have you seen the Zed lately? 2 fuel pumps hanging under near the diff, carbon fibre bits n pieces all over the place, talk about a heavy tank.... :headspin: John is probably at home right now getting high on V's :wassup:

Now Merli dont scare them off too hard. Sounds like beer talk though. It is only a zed after all. Blitz Why don't you show get your GTR out and waste the zed????

Sorry to hear Duncan won't be out there, can't wait though will be big. By the way 107.7 last at Wakefield.

We are currently doing lots of mods to it, things that will drop times. Motor not in the car yet but will be next week. By the way I need another mechanic, good one if anyone knows of any, email or call direct.

Roy you will get in plenty of ten minute sessions as it will be almost non stop all day, with a drift session in the middle for half an hour.

There is a case of Beer or V for any GTR or GTS-T that can beat the zed on the day, as well as a trophy. And a full admission on SAU and the ZEd forum that I got wooped by a Skyline. Even a handicap for tyres. Road tyres 2 secs semi slicks 1 sec. I will be running very second hand slicks.

I will be having a V early in the day ( my third in my life ) SHWING, so I don't want to here any excuses about this. I estimate half a second improve in every bottle. But double the dose NOT double the benefit unless it is drift contest. Yes Blitz it works on old guys too.

Now Merli dont scare them off too hard.

Wreckedhead has my full support :D As if I'd back any silly Zed over a GTR, no matter how many cheating additions you have on your boat :D

Let's hope John can get that motor in the zed, get it all wired up etc in time for this day. I haven't seen it for a 2 weeks but last time I did - it was on bits - major bits.

I've never done wakefield, are there any straights ??? I might come down and let the fat zed overtake (or lap) me just before the straight, then go past it on the straight for the photographers :D :D

does anyways have any pics of this ZED, casue just curious how it goes and what power it makes, not that im worried or anything but i used to have a zed and i spent about 10 grand on the motor and it was still a nugget, any videos or anything like that.

hey wreckhead, check the last HPI for its specs from about 12 months ago.

IMHO 107.7 is fairly quick. I reckon you will be around 1.14s, or if you haven't been on a circuit before I'm guessing you'll end up deeeep in kitty litter at turn 2....but you can always prove me wrong :rant:

B-man, its only got a little straight....you need to take it on at Eastern Creek

It goes better than your 10 grand nugget i'll bet :thumbsup:

it probably does go beter that my nugget, but that nugget is long gone, and king of the road had taken over, ive never actually raced my car on a curcuit befor, and i dont think its set up for racing casue of to much turbo lag, but its ok its all good and fun.

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
