[shadowhearth1986]

he is not drunk, just having fun

[clarkdef]

Good drive, especially holding onto it when it got hairy. I hope to get my R32 out onto the track one day, but I have this condition called poor.

[xblackjokerx99]

[OZHCR32]

...i cant use that excuse this time :(

[xblackjokerx99]

[rakattack987]

nice save at 1:45

[GazBoffin]

Haha, "ummmmmm where did the grip go?" Were you running semis? Ps i read ur info on the vid, im about 2 months away from purchasing a fairly tidy gtst, its got an FMIC, 2.5" turbo-back to 3", air filter (standard airflow meter) and some suspension goodies, strut brace, tein coilovers, new neothane bushings, control arms etc.. Any recomendations on realitively cheap (around 1500-2500 worth) mods. What have you done to push the RB20 to 330-340atw?PM me if you like, cheers cal.

[TupacX2Pak]

rb20?

[nikunter]

skyline + cheap mods = does not exist

[leecfa28]

you comment on the 1600 having some 500 hp and waying 800 kg, in fact that car weighs about 900 kg and had about 220 hp then. I know that car. just goes to show turbo's and big power dont mean shit!! sucker...

[OZHCR32]

You may be right re the weight, but i saw the size of the turbo and its tuned by Nizpro. I was talking to one of their mechanics on the day and only repeating what i was told. Looking at the turbo i have a hard time believing it only has 220hp, though it is still a Z18. But why run a big Garrett roller for the sort of power you can get from an S15 turbo? As for sucker? Very mature, why am i a sucker, because a race car is quicker then my road car? I dont care, at least i am out there having fun

[clarkdef]

@leecfa28 Yeah mate your the loser. Just enjoy cars instead of going on about turbos and stuff like that.

[BurlyR32]

Noticed you had a power FC. Are you running an RB25? I plan on hitting around 330ish on my RB20 this summer but was worried about engine management.

[OZHCR32]

Its an internally std RB20. I am running the Power Fc released by AP Engineering that suits the R32 RB20. Not very common ECU these days but can still source them for around AUS$1700

[BurlyR32]

Little bit rough price wise, might just go with an AEM EMS unit unless I can find someone to tune my stock ECU and just use an SAFC. What turbo are you using?

[OZHCR32]

Yeh, it hurts to be payign almost twice the price for a Power Fc for the R32, but its drive high by the demand for them. :( I am running a Trust TD06-20G setup

[bwrs68]

how much hp does your gts have? what were you hitting down the straights?

[OZHCR32]

It has about 330-340hp at the wheels. On the front straight i think it gets to about 220km/h, and on the back straight i think i have touched around 230km/h. Cant recall exactly, would have to look up the data logger. But that would be pretty close

[swat2400]

FUK nice drivin man

[jimbo1485]

Wow, what a great video! You were really pushing the R32 hard, good on you!

[styx85]

Haha, is that a Lada in front of you in the beginning?

[OZHCR32]

LOL...no. There was a Lada Niva there on the day doing recovery :) But thats a Datsun 1600 Sports Sedan, weighing something like 800kg with 500hp. So not surprised he blows past me in a straight line

[OZHCR32]

Combination of things. LOL, mostly driver. The car was leaking fluid which meant that the rear was a bit skittish after a long stretch. The last conrer on the vid was so skaty because of the marbles/etc stuck to the tyres from going off line. So leak fixed and new suspension going in to stop the pitching under brakes. Hopefully be a lot more settled next time out in July

[Swiftstar2]

Well what ended up being the problem? was it that the tires just got too hot?

[r32cubes]

That datto had quite a bit of mumbo troy.

Damn impressed how well the 32 held it through the corners.
