Antilag RaceWars 2014 dates have been released today, it will be held on the 12th and 13th of April once again at Wyalkatchem Airport.

Last year was ridiculously fun and I can't wait to wind some boost up, drop some kilos and better last years efforts.

Anyone else planning on going?

More power is definitely required, seems I've got some quick cars chasing my title.

650 - 700 Sarah Jessica Parkers should do the trick I think ;)

Hi, folks.

I enjoyed myself this year and have a point to prove next year! I have booked my accommodation in Dowerin just now. I hope it is not quite as hot and they iron out the kinks in the schedule. The organisers did a great effort for the first year.

Still learning to drive, it would appear!!!

:blink:

whats the point you wish to prove?

More to myself, than anything else. For lots of reasons, I stuffed up and ran in low boost all through the Saturday. Then on the Sunday I only managed two runs on the 1000 metres, because I was flying out that night and had to get back. The first one, the timing didn't work and I had a good indicated top speed. The second one, I stuffed the start and one gear change and the timing worked. So, I came away with the overall feeling that I had not driven the car to its potential. I want to do that this time.

So that is the point I want to prove to myself.

I only had the one run at 1,000m myself, I certainly had an average start and a short shift, could have gone faster but doubt I could have pulled up in time, haha!

1000m = need good brakes.

Got to around 230-240 and felt "pretty" safe with hard braking.

Yeah, I think I'll need my 6-pots for if I ever get to 260-270 :P

Entry is in! Looking forward to it - and hopefully not as much waiting around. But then, that is always going to be the case with an event like this. They do say that in motorsport, one of the phrases often used is "Hurry up and wait"!

Hope to see you guys there. :action-smiley-069:

      Short shifter r34

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Don't do it if your gearbox box has already having syncro issues. The short hifter will put a greater load on them. If you must I remember Nismo did a shorter shifter, with the top part being physically shorter and the part that went into the gearbox was the same as stock. In saying that I've had a C's short shifter (I think) in mine for many years, which was given to me as the previous owner was not sympathetic to the gearbox. Thus forwarned I was careful and had to modify my normal changing style. You have to be super accurate with your clutch and shifts

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      Well, after a week of daily driving and having to crawl out between the wheel and the side intrusion bars. I got myself a quick release setup. I went with an NRG short hub and Quick Release with some cute heart cutouts on the pull tabs. Nice and matchy matchy with the rest of the interior accents I have going on.  The only downside is the total stack height even with the short adapter is longer than the old HKB boss kit. Luckily I had some adjustment left on the column so move the wheel away.

      stock shifter with new bushes, springs and cup will improve it. Gktech do all the bits. The opinion as the years have gone on is the redline is not great in old gearboxes.

      Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?

      R34 oil and timing belt change

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
