  1. Went well... ended up doing a 66.7 long track, which they say is at least 10 sec slower than short track. will do a more informative post soon
  2. Update on my tubro and motor... Did 2 full days of track work at Track Battle in Perth Ran 20psi and revved anywhere from 7500-8000rpm and it's still loving life! For anyone counting I also managed a 66.7sec long track which I think is fairly respectable
  3. Sounds like the old 20 has finally gone bang! Was a good innings though, maybe another sub $1000 wrecker motor is the go I can tell you that nothing is as much fun as belting up on a RB20
  4. There is an extra 44% flow between 2.5" to 3"
  5. Yeah 8/6 seems to be the general consensus of what is decent Whiteline front and GTR rear it is... Now I have the issue that tyres are not available, so I might just have to run the tuner class with the 235 RE55s Will be a good comparison to see if I have gone forwards or backwards in set up
  6. triple post... fark yeah
  7. The term "space age materials" does make me laugh a little
  8. Cheers for the heads up... Unfortunately time is not my friend as the track battle is next weekend. I'm going to start with a 24mm adjustable front and keep the GTR rear for now
  9. http://www.whiteline.com.au/do_segue4.php?make=Nissan&model=Skyline&model_final=SKYLINE+R32+GTS%2C+GTS-T+2WD&vehicle=1%2F90-1%2F93 Can't even see a part number for a 27mm bar, but I do take your point it might just be worth going a Whiteline front with GTR rear hhhmmmmm Also worth noting that the GTR 25mm is hollow while the White 24mm are solid, so not same same I don't believe?!?
  10. Ok I think I have come up with a plan... Let me know what you think Set up the subframe as per below, yellow = whiteline bush and red = kazama ally lock bushes Buy some Whiteline 24mm adjustable sway bars (front and rear) and run them on the softer setting Run 255/40's on the back and wind the coilovers to the softest damper setting
  11. Natural camber using stock arms at the ride height I use is about 3deg camber, which 2 kits you can only really wind that back to just under 2deg where I want to run more like 0.5-0.75 Interesting both your thoughts on the whiteline swaybars... Can get a set of 24mm adjustable for $400 delivered hmmmmm
  12. Yeah that is probably going to be the plan... Wind the dampers back, go back to standard LCA's (how much you want to pay ), 255/40 on the rear. I've got some whiteline pineapples at home so I'm thinking I'll remove the top front ally lockers and put in the whiteline pineapples to tilt the cradle! Going to be a busy weekend! My old GTR gripped really well in RWD and that had even more power and torque so I know I have gone wrong somewhere! I'm going to swap out the LCA's, I'm lucky I have a full set of rear arms out the back on a spare subframe... I'm going to keep the uppers as I find the Whiteline bushes don't have enough adjustment even if you use them on both sides The front swaybar may be an option, I'll try adjusting the rear a bit and see how I go first
  13. Diff is stock GTR 4.11 jobby, cradle bushes are Kazama ally lock bushes, D-project rear upper camber, traction and rear LCA's (all rose jointed), Greddy shocks with 8/6kg, stock front swaybar and GTR rear, ride heights are reasonable (I'll check tonight but they are about 1.5cm between top of tyre and guard). Unfortunately no in car video with the rear grip issue
  14. Got mine off ebay, can't seem to find the buyer but it had already had the faced machined (which is a very good idea to ask). I think vulture motorsports on here sell decent ones, there are some dodgy ones around though. I have the VH45 throttle body so I didn't need an adaptor but you will need one to use the stock RB25 one, the cost of the VH45 was $100 and the stock adaptor was $100ish so it made the choice easy I'm running a Nistune RB20 ecu and sensors with a Greddy MSS switching VCT Drifting is for cookers, no offence Yeah if I run +35 offset rims I should be able to squeeze some 255s under the guards. I've got 0.75deg rear with 2mm total toe in at the rear. I'm running 6kgs springs in Greddy Type-S coilovers, I do have to soften the dampers (I think they were set to about 10 of 32) The only other thing that may be causing my issue is my aftermarket rear LCA's... I'm starting to wonder if they have done some funky shit with my geometry (moved roll centre etc). I have some spare GTR ones at home that I might smash in this weekend
  15. 3rd gear on 20psi... I don't even bother with my high boost setting haha If I go even half throttle through corners it will step out on me a little, any more than that will usually have me spinning all of 3rd down the main straight 2nd is a disaster but I only use it once after a hair pin so I'm usually pointing straight before I hit the go peddle
  16. Ok, time for an update... Went a did another track night a while ago with some new RE55S rubber and it didn't go too well. Had massive issues with a lack of rear traction and ended up going backwards into the sand trap at turn 1 at the end of the night. I have the track battle coming up in a few weeks so I have a few options to try and help me fix the issues 1. Keep current set up and drive around the issue 2. Replace the rear subframe with a S15, which have better geometry and should provide more traction (which will push the track out 5mm) but run +5 offset wheels and run 235/45 tyres on the back 3. Replace the ally upper bush at the top of the front subframe mounts with whiteline spacers to shift the geometry and run +5 offset wheels with 255/40 tyres Really the only options are 2 and 3... Just trying to work out if the extra 20mm if tyre is worth the compromise in the rear suspension geometry?!? Any ideas, help or suggestions would be great?!?
  17. You can't run a HKS super squeeker as they are possibly the most gayest thing since Elton John! Trust Type R are the goods, can't really go wrong
  18. Love your work, looks like you have the angle and everything sorted... Should control boost well! Is this a TD06SL2 or T67?
  19. Graphs look like they are from a auto?
  20. Interesting result, looks like it makes for a good fast car! Keen to see someone bolt one of these to a external gate set up and see how it compares with a GT3076R. Looks like it will be fairly similar
  21. Cool video Glad to see I'm not the only one with massive grip issues haha
  22. Why the delay? I think I ordered mine and had delivered within a working week
  23. butters/zeroyon who is on here and antilag runs that exact set up on his drag S13 (which runs 9's) and around 550rwhp for a few years which is more than needed for a RWD Considering the cost it's not a bad option
