~110km/h road speed on a Mainline roller dyno is about 4000RPM with a 4.08 rear diff, give or take.

I would be interested in this too, especially with the T4 1.06 divided rear housing -
Convince me not to buy an R32 GTR
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to funkymonkey's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
In some parallel universe, I would have a multi-bay garage and have multiple toys but in this current universe I am only allowed one shit box from a space and finance perspective 😆 I did have one person message me on IG asking if I wanted their BMW + cash, however it wasn't of the right age nor was it a M car. -

And add in all the times I shouted mates dinner, drinks, Jap BBQ, bottles of whisky, slabs of beer, etc. then add in my time tuning, wiring, hiring dynos, it becomes seriously stupid. Hence a stock M3 F80 just makes more sense now. Slap on some R compound and out of the box it will do faster lap times than the shit box could ever do. -

Yep, I kept a spreadsheet.. and yes it has over 320+ items. It also excludes any maintenance parts like brakes/rotors/oils/plugs, etc. -

close to 100k in parts spent/installed/to be installed on a shit box R33 GTS-t I entertained the idea of leaving the Nissan world last night to my wife, she said something along the lines of (including the profanity: "no fking way, you're going to sell it and one day bring home another shit box. I prefer if you keep this shit box" -

Welcome back to the Skyline Autism Club. Where we are all not normal for spending copious amounts of money on these shit boxes. Follow me for more tips on how to waste money. -
NZ R33 Long Term Build
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to R3N3's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
very porno wheels! Yeah the RS-4 tyres are quite meaty compared to other tyres. -
A cheaper alternative (with the same coils) is to get the one from efisolutions https://www.efisolutions.com.au/coil-conversion-kit-rb-to-r35-gtr If you have a NEO head https://www.efisolutions.com.au/coil-conversion-kit-rb25-neo-to-r35-gtr You have the option of choosing R35 coils or 370Z as well. No PRP tax.

It's actually not a STI but some JDM import. He's thinking of getting rid of it too and buying a modern fast car, like a i30N or a M2 non Comp.

R34 skyline noise limit

That's so dumb. -
R34 skyline noise limit
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to drifter17a's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Apparently it's at the control tower, yeah I know Roll Racing doesn't have it however the irony is they use the same main straight. -
R34 skyline noise limit

SMSP has a 95dB limit for track days, however it appears they don't really enforce it, especially when they use the main straight for Roll Racing and those cars are anything but quiet. Also screamer pipes are such a distraction on track days, you're too busy enjoying the noise to actually be focusing on driving fast lol. -
Took the shit box out with a couple of mates today. Stopped at the usual Headland Hotel for breakie.

It is, especially when you can control the pedal curve, which cannot be done on a traditional setup unless you swap the the throttle wheels and that's still garbage because it's generally a fixed curve. If you've ever driven a car with a large cable throttle you'll notice it's ver touchy at low RPMs, you can get rid of that behaviour with DBW and exponentially ramp in the DBW TP vs. your Accelerator Pedal Position (APP). And lastly superior cold start, idle control.
