The oil is the "Bling"... can't have a K&N filter without the oil!!!

LOL... gearbox... yeah... I have to call about that now actually...

Jeff, Yeah, they are out of the way there. Lynden from RoadRunner Fabrications is doing a bunch of stuff for my car, and that was one of the things. Fits perfectly, and can be made to hold 3.250L of oil, not that I ever want to fill it!!! which is more than is needed in my category.

Cheers,

Dan.

Hey Dan,

I was the pit exit offical at Symmons Plains on the weekend.

I didn't make it over for a closer look at your car but was very impressed with the tyre smoking torque it had!!

I just found this thread, the silver bare interior pics look sweet!

Good luck with the rest of the series. :(

Matt

Thanks Matt,

Yeah I think I might have been the only driver using 3rd and 4th gears on the tight track... that is the MIGHTY torque of the RB engines... lol.

Had a great weekend, just a shame I ended up loosing to James Vahoomis (SP?) after all those re runs... never mind... they'll be in my house on the 24th of September!

Cheers,

Dan.

Duncan,

Hit the wall...

Dan.

No, won't buff out, but isn't that bad, certainly not as bad as last time!

In fact I competed in 3 more passes and the expression sessions all afternoon. even the tial lights still work!

Thanks Jimbo! :) :) ;)

I must say that I have been a little slack with it all the last little while, but that is not to say that we haven't been busy with the car and Drifting!!!

Lots of progress recently at Tassie, and apart from trying to get the bloody car back into NSW we had a great time away.

I did hit the wall during a battle though, not a huge hit, but enough to damage the car. Not enough to retire me though... you'll have to watch SpeedWeek on the 17th if you want to know how the battles finished up!

As for the car we will make a new manifold for it next week, steam pipe and then bolt the new turbo on... look out for the new dyno sheets soon.

We also had some oil pressure issues in Tassie, I'm fairly sure that it was just the sender for the guage that is buggered, but we are checking everything anyway.

Oh, and great news, I have my website up now... not heaps on it yet, and still plenty of work to do to get it up and going, but it is a start, and I'll keep going with it as I get time. so check out www.mackieracing.com for all the latest!

I'll catch you all soon kids,

Dan.

mm goodness.

Just checked your webpage - Joomla aaay. Lemme know if you need some basic help. Haven't played with joomla to a great extent but if you're a noob then I might be able to help. If you're a developer level geek then I probably can't help :D

Keep em updates comin! :rant:

Thanks Jimbo! :laugh::):(

I watched it and saw your little 'off'. ah, not to worry. Fink done pretty well for himself with the ex-d1 200sx. Are you ready and pumped for this weekend?

Not ready yet... but pumped... HELL YEAH!

Oh, and Fink's 200sx was an aussie built car, they didn't have the new car then, they do now, but apparently it won't be debuting this weekend...

    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
    • BTW, the reason I came in here to "update" this list was that the Garrett G Series II range have been released and I've updated the list with their flow details if you're curious to check how they fit with previous Garretts and other brands The G-Series II G35 990 looks like a banger...
