Well a good weekend... lots of positives, the extra power is helping, and the set up is coming along.

Smashed the front bar to bits on Saturday during Team Drift... never mind...

Sunday saw me up agains Kelly McKinnon, It was pretty tight first battle, but unfortunatly my handbrake got stuck on in the second battle and I spun... real bugger as I certainly had a chance... guess that is being chucked in the bin this week and replaced with a proper drift hand brake...

Team drift was fun, although a big smash saw the session canned after only one run.

Can't wait for Eastern creek at the end of next month... new turbo and a whole lot more incoming... stay tuned!

Dan.

Nice one Kinks!!! Post up some pics when you get it.

Richard, end of next month... as it says in the last line of the post... but more specifically in case that was what you meant... 29th and 30th of July.

See you all then!

Oh, and thanks for getting my AFR around the right way... I hate going by memory.

The Bel Motorsports sticker is on the wrong way around to be JDMyo

they are supposed to go from the front to the back of the vehicle...

But that is unless you are like Kelly McKinnon who thinks the other way

around is more aggressive looking... Anyway, take it or leave it.

If you look at this truck in my carpark you can see the way it works

with Chinese/Katakana characters... The letters are the correct way

around but go from the front to the back of the truck.

Anyway, congratulations on the results, keep up the good work!

Well development is coming along rather well... now have 224rwkw at a low 0.9bar of boost and at around 155kms in 4th gear. we also made 712nm at 70kms in 4th, and averaged 644nm across the entire rev range!

Which probably explains why I have no 4th gear syncro left. and 3rd gear is spitting out sometimes... I knew it would break eventually... but I was hoping for a little later in the season!

I have 2 dyno graphs, but I'll scan them tomorrow, or next week.

See you all at Eastern Creek the weekend after next!

Cheers,

Dan.

lol... you guys are vultures!!!

If I buy a new box the old one is being kept as a spare, looks like we will be buying a second handy for this round, and rebuilding the old one a bit stronger... especially as we are looking for more power still too!

If I look to sell it Nathan I'll give you a bell. (pm)

Did I show you the new Pipe work and Catch can that RoadRunner Fabrications made up for me? Very Pretty!!!

Catch Can

And also someone asked a while back about dyno graphs... I finally remembered to get them... and they are below.

First is Power,224RWKW @ 12psi (0.9bar). We did another run with 20psi (1.3bar) and only made 227rwkw... so it is time for a bigger huffer... BRING IT ON.

Second is torque... again same settings as above, in fact same run! Max 712NM, Min 497NM, AVERAGE across the run was 644NM

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.  
    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
