.Still haven't weighed her but removed around 200kg but added a bit with roll cage and big intercooler oil cooler, accusump etc so guess around 1450kg. Yes I showed everything that big SAU sticker on back. There were no GTS-T's out which is rare and a R33 GTR Daniel the white one with wheels painted black that comes to our track days and a nice red R34 GTR with GTRS turbo's and all the fruit.

After many months of research, I have concluded that the GTR was NOT the nissan flagship sportscar like everybody thought... it was in fact the stagea. and for this reason, i propose a Zeds versus Stageas competition.

:headbang:

Yes slicks, 3 .4 of them. One was still flat spotted bad from Oran Park. Was vibrating bad especially down the straight as it was like driving on 50 cent peice. I might get semi slicks and lose a sec or two max over the ones I had yesterday then more of a comparison to the .....times of GTR's? With 4 good tyres prob another sec in it.

Prank well you said it I didn't. More that the zed is under rated. I would love a Stagea, had one on order for like a year and gave up and bought a LS400 family car which is nice and yes hotted it up a bit. When you bringing her around to show us Prank?

Hey Roy the Aim lap timer is unreal. Wish I had a long time ago. So handy to know the exact times so can compare driving and set up of car. We now stock them and can do a good price on them and way cheaper and better than the types that have been available to date. PM or email me re this Roy.

Next outing is Oran Park South 23rd North Shore Sporting Car Club Super Sprint. Aiming for 47 sec. Wonder what might have been if I did up a GTR? Being the only zed out suits me. I like lots of people saying a zed was a waste of time. At least, they did.

OK how about 5 or more can do for $395 normally $475 for the up spec model with back lit screen and optional external power which is the one to get. Or if wanting the normal one battery operated only then $350 normally $399. This is if we get 5 or more of any combo.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
