ah the ever dangerous "........for now"

can I just say power figure aside that torque curve is AWESOME!!!......

smooth drive and given the motor reliable as....

Im guessing that 350 on a "Run in " tune ?????

I'm thinking in 6 months this shit will get re-dic

Thanks mate. Not really certain you could say it was achieved on run in tune as Sean actually ran the engine in the dyno and then went for power run after.

Although there is no torque curve present in the dyno charts provided, the car is do easy to drive at low revs it's a pleasure to drive normally.

I've yet to put my foot down at SP1 cause

1. I'm trying to get my confidence back up again

2. There are no private roads I know of here readily at my disposal

you should do a private showing for the SAU Qld guys... happy to come along.. Epic Car.

Happy Laps at QR at the end of the month. See this thing down the main straight!

Dont forget to pack the scissors!

yep - looks great :thumbsup:

thanks mate.

Looks great mate!

thank you sir.

Congrats Anth!

Time to stretch her legs over a drive to Melbourne :yes:

lol will do.......but probably not Melbourne just yet.

i have to get used to driving this beast again.

few questions.

1. how is the car going????

2. what ever happened to your previous setup ???

3. where do you source you original stock nissan parts??

car is great mate.....................very easy to drive at low revs and sounds amazing!

I will have to post a vid of the car on start in the garage when I can.

I have some more restoration work to carry out on the car, but time right now is my biggest issue. I just dont have much (amazing what happens when you have more kids ;) )

Previous setup was sold a few months ago now to a bloke on the Goldie and hopefully is enjoying it.

Most of my parts are usually sourced from Perfect Run Japan which do a great job.

Much better than any Nissan dealers here in Oz (sadly)

Anyways, here are a few more pics of the car I took quickly

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
