Dan i don't know if you've been told or have heard but Boaty is trying to get numbers up for a prctice on Friday night at Mallala. It's not gonna be a DA or SD only practice but for anyone who wants to. I belive Mallala is trying to have it on at 5-9pm on this Friday. If you can make it, I'd suggest calling Boaty and showing interest. Could be some VERY valuable prctice time for you!

Great news mate, congrats. It's all coming together now.

My mate and I will be driving there and towing his car. His name's Rob and he drives a white 180SX with a Cosmo 13B in it. F**king crazy.

Ah,,,Roto Power gotta love it.

Possum,,,just in the nick of time. So we both will have a great weekend. Poor Duncan he'll have to sit at home renovating Ha Ha Ha.

Well Guys,

Car is painted, Everything is on bar the side skirts, do that this morning... Decals will be applied in a NOT WINDY AREA once we arrive.

Getting tune this morning and we are off... I can't believe that it is done, I am stoked... and the paint looks AWESOME!!!!

I'll give a run down on the last week when I get back... Until then Kids, Stay Sideways.

PS. Did I mention that the whole build has been documented for the documentary being made on me... so who would watch the program?

Dan.

PPS. Neil, have fun this weekend mate, and good luck!

Hey Guys... Well the build is I guess done... but I am thinking I might continue this thread while I develop the car also...

We had HUGE weekend... even if I did only do 15 laps all weekend... As Neil said, I qualified 8th, which was fantastic, and even though I was giving Denzo a hard time, I Spun and finished 18th... either way I am happy that I made it down, qualified, competed and brought back a working car!

Thanks for all the well wishes and support... I had a massive last month getting the car ready.

Don't forget to watch the footage on Speedweek on the 11th of June.

Cheers Guys,

Dan.

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
