yeah im not saying I believe it.. just saying we'll see what happens! I dont really care either way as im just another on-looker  :rofl:

If everyone had the same attitude as you did it would make things a lot easier, that is just let the results do the talking when the car is actually finished.

I didnt have to talk about this car when the topic came up but I did solely because I thought sau would be interested in such an ambitious project.

Considering Benny has pulled nearly 500rwkw out of an SR that wasnt even stroked its fair to say that he has the know how how to deliver the goods with a car such as this.

and whats that about eating my words ash? I find that pretty funny coming from someone who compares Racepace(who are an excellent shop no doubt) to Japans finest :headspin:

according to the guys at the workshop it was, but other things have come up too, they have a business to run after all, its not like the car wont be built its just taking longer than expected, as all these big projects tend to

you said why bother with smokey because we have racepace, thats a pretty big statement too ash, in fact its too big

Its not too big at all Sam, its big by you as you have no idea what your on about.

Are you gonna take your car to smokey then??  

I think not

does any Melbourne shop take, for example, an VQ35 and test out nearly every turbo setup on it? both singles and twins? as well as other components including cranks, pistons, rods, gaskets, and everything in between? DO they do this with nearly every engine and every car?

Racepace build amazing cars no doubt, arguably the best in Australia but I highly doubt that they puts as much R&D into every setup possible as Top Secret would, thats why the Japanese are the masters of the game, they put the money into testing different ideas, if they blow an engine or crash a car big deal, their budgets can absorb it quite easily.

and if my car needed a retune and I had the time to take it down to sydney hell yes I would take it down to Smokey

Ash, you really need to need to learn to keep some of your non constructive views and comments to yourself.

Try and keep this thread to your original topic rather than puting down in one thread people who have dedicated their lives to acheiving things that neither you or me will ever achieve.

When you start bagging workshops you bring this forum and club into disrepute. I know for a fact that benny always does good deals for people from this forum and club and and goes out of his way to help out others.

As a rep of this club and this forum your not setting the geatest example.

Think before you brain fart.

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
