So basically just acted as a vent to help oil drain quicker through the oil returns

Any more updates on the gtr ?

Getting a Quaife ATB front diff installed and the rear is getting rebuilt to around 30% higher torque settings. That plus the brakes and I'll take it back out for some fun :)

who needs dedicated track car hey ! nice man taking this to its full potential

what times did you run in the old green beast ? i need something to aim for once i learn how to drive straight :unsure:

66.7 I think was best long track, did some suspension stuff after that which would have made it quicker but never got it out again.

I think most the RWD quick Skylines are around the 66 mark but Denver is doing 63 (but that is a race car)

If you can crack into the 65's or better your doing well

I've followed your build threads, gtst and now gtr, and ultimatey which 32 do you find quicker?

I thought you were nearing a 65 in the t67 rb25 rwd monster

GTR is miles quicker at the track and a fair whack quicker in a straight line, the old green thing was bargain performance where the GTR isn't

Well GTR ownership is getting expensively depressing. Quaife ATB which has finally arrived this week and is being installed on the 6th of Jan.

Rear diff has been rebuilt and tightened so it's gone from 19lb/ft of breakaway to 49lb/ft. Should be even better for 4wd sideways action once both diffs are back in.


All shiny and tight!

Dog also helped me out to check out condition of the motor

Went to my first ever event in the WA Sprint Championship, was a bit tighter and different to what I'm used to but I did really well coming in 2nd out of 83 cars. Got pipped by around half a second by another 32R which is really set up well with a RB30, EFR8374 and some very nice suspension goodies. About 4 sec clear of the rest of the field made me fairly happy!

Finally back and running, the alignment got a bit stuffed up and they put toe out on the rear instead of in which made it interesting with delaminating tyres on the rear :)

This track you are on . Is it near Perth airport ?

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
