The car runs an older Pectel Cosworth electronics package with Windows 95 still being the required OS to run the tuning software. While it's great to keep things original, complications like this are one of the reasons why we see many people update the electronics in older racing platforms in order to give more flexibility and even increase reliability with the modern crop of ECU's and sensors we have available now days. One of the interesting aspects of this car is the 28l intake and airbox which allowed for an extra boost of power coming out of the corners before the intake restrictors, the size of which was dictated by the circuit back when it was a factory race car with teams having a range of engine maps to suit. Common to motorsport applications a Hewland split shaft transmission which allows for individual gear ratio adjustment and a PI Reseach data logging system is in place however other than the general engine inputs for the World Time Attack Challenge, shock potentiometers are the only added extra for the moment along with a GT500 aero setup, GT500 being a less restrictive class in the same series at the time. ------------------------------------ TIME STAMPS: 0:00 - JGTC Z33 Legend 0:15 - GT300 vs GT500 0:57 - How The 350z Got To Straya 2:02 - Running A Nismo Built Car 2:26 - Servicing & Parts Life 2:58 - VQ35DE Homologation & Packaging 3:53 - Engine Internal Changes 4:17 - Harmonics and Resonance 4:30 - Original Engine Mapping 4:56 - BoP Restrictor Size - 27.6mm 5:22 - Plenum Volume Used For Tuning 5:54 - Restrictor Sizing Change Procedure 6:38 - Alpha N, Individual 55mm Throttle Bodies 7:00 - 28L Plenum Volume 'Grey' Advantages 7:48 - Tapered Runner Tuning 8:06 - Factory Racing Is The Goods 8:41 - Unrestricted 580hp Power Output at 10,500rpm 9:21 - 420+450hp Burst With Plenum and Restriction 10:12 - 300hp vs 1000hp Cars 10:30 - Electronics Packaging 11:28 - Tuning Requires Windows 95 12:13 - Historic Significance vs Actually Using It 13:07 - Plans For The Future 14:06 - Hewland Split Shaft Transmission 15:02 - Ignition Cut Setup 16:27 - Data Logging and Driver Display 16:53 - Being Cautious with Data 17:10 - Door To Door Racing Plan 18:11 - Dale You're a Legend.
