  1. I'm curious, why the drop in rpm and hence power/torque on the graphs? It's like you back off after starting the run and then hit it again yet your torque/power never gets back up there. It's a solid drop in 25kw from what I can make out when it does it.
  2. When you say hitting the dyno, I'm assuming you're tuning it to clean up the richness and make it a lot nicer? If tuning, very low 300, but it should be nice and responsive and fun as hell to drive. Will make a wicked fun daily.
  3. Someone needs to make a set of chasers, but with the Chev bowtie instead of the holes all around the edge. Would make a fortune!
  4. Save your money, buy an FG XR6T for 20K, drop 15K on it, run 11s every day, do epic skids, and still have 32k spare...
  5. Why? I'm not advertising it forsale, but I am happy to sell it if someone wants to pay. We're now having a nice friendly chat about skylines.
  6. You know why they name cyclones after women? Because they come in all hot and wet and leave taking your house and car...
  7. How many houses in Sydney will one need to sell for it?
  8. Is Piggaz even selling his, or is it a case of "everything is forsale if the money is right"?
  9. I'm with Dan, tune what you have now in the GTR and make it fun. Make it a responsive daily, keep it neat and clean. Push the envelope of stupidity (fun/power/shits and giggles) on the S15. I have no idea what fuel system you have in the 15, but I'd likely put the one in the GTR into the 15, and just run a decent intank pump in the GTR for street/cruise/muck around. If you take it to the track, just keep the tank full. If you keep dumping money at the GTR you'll never finish the S15 and it will just devalue and end up rotting away.
  10. Eric from SAU NSW, white GTR, now moved to NZ. I think it was about 350kw.
  11. The first thing to always do, is work out what you want to achieve with the car. Is it going to be for drag racing? Circuit racing? Daily driving? Midnight runs through Natio? Having all out bullshit crazy power can make any car less fun to drive if for example you want to drive spiritedly through Natio, because it'll be a lag monster, and then you'll be fighting wheel spin on already low grip roads. It would also make it useless for circuit work if you want to do that, and it means in a 0-80kmh run without a big launch or rev up, the p plater in his mums commodore is likely to beat you. For a street all round package, a hugely responsive package, that has wicked suspension, big brakes and grumpy tyres is king. It's also going to be decent at the drags, and on the circuit and killer through the Natio. My "ideal" GTR that's a great all rounder would be something like Eric's R33. I have no idea what Piggaz car is currently like to be able to comment if it'd also be suitable. PS, I've made the mistake of chasing power, and power is useless if you can't use it all or it's not available when you want it. Though, fourth gear rolling skids on the freeway are both fun and f**king scary...
  12. Thanks! Just had a quick look, will read more later but that stuff is sooo cheap! Definitely of interest for a project of mine
  13. The fuse panel, is that an OEM part rewired, or did you buy a bare fuse/relay panel?
  14. Wasn't white line rebuilding them at least back in the day?
  15. I'm a fan of blistein, and if they were well sorted and it drove nicely, why chance it?
  16. Friction material doesn't "Blow itself to pieces". You were slipping the f**k out of it, either attempting to launch it, or trying to do burnouts. Boost controllers don't measure power either...
  17. So you don't want to come play with even some basic magic parts like this?
  18. He's too scared to run it down the quarter. He broke a twin plate trying to show off, how's he going to be able to launch it at the drags?
  19. Brett, every single light should be on a independently switched circuit too, and maybe some coloured LEDs, and power points every 30cm... Ha ha ha let him wire his own lights in Piggaz... Or should we be concerned it'd be just another flood light tek screwed to the roof?
