Yes, we decided that the burnout pad really needed to be about 1/3 longer in each direction to swing cars around without fear.

Happy Birthday to my wife as well, who let me go instead of shopping with her and her family on her birthday!!!

Head up to Blackwood Auto and Dyno.

$35 for a power run. :(

My Rb30DET running the stock rb20det turbo where it made 176rwkw at 9psi, which is most definitely slower than how it feels now without a tune running the vg30det turbo.

Mine will spool up to 13psi by 2100rpm (appears to surge or some thing under that) general driving say rolling out of a corner at low rpm and booting it will see 13psi or so at 2500rpm. It appears to pull hard until 5800rpm, all though it does go a lean after 5500rpm. Needs to be tuned.

that van allways puts on a good show.

but after all that i got second in the 6cyl class, beaten by the UC torry cause 3rd round f**ked up.

there were potholes in the pad by the 3rd round. it was a joke. i didn't know what was stopping my spin till after. i thought it was the rear bags were failing but i was hitting the potholes stopping my slide so i was getting stuck up against the armco. and pissed off so stuffed the rest up.

bloody good day thoe. some very quick cars and some... well...

i heard from an offical that the kingswood rocked up with a generator belted up in the passenger seat with an extention cord running to a leafblower set up as a s/c..... :lol:

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
