the hardest thing about using a transbrake is getting used to not hitting the brakes when you hold it flat but its easy

just get into stage hold the button until you hit the right boost or rpm

i leave the line at 5000rpm with 10 psi boost

any questions pm me

put a boost gauge and 5" rev tacho close to ur steering wheel so u can c it straght and clear. I have 3 speed in mine. 1st u switch your transbrake solenoid on, hold the button then rev it to 5,000 or something, boost will hit 15-18psi. leave the button then you'll get "quickest launch ever". dont hold that button for too long, 5-6 sec max, other way u will cook ur trans. get a big trans cooler !, and dont press it again when you launch, your trans will go back to reverse and brake ur auto internals. autos are jsut like a tune and engine, you need correct stall size to suit ur turbo, and cam and then retune it to match everything... very hard man. You bought the best auto for drags, good luck

Love the sound of the T51R, always have and probably always will :P

As for being the quickest, I'm not sure about times but there was an R33 running a factory-capacity RB25, making 795rwhp getting around Brisbane, was built by Hardcore before they ceased operations and had NIS33 on the plates. Also, 40RCD (now TRY09) might be worth checking too, I don't know if it still runs an RB25 bottom end but last time I saw it, it was running some very decent times. It was definitely 2.5 litre when it was running mid 10's, and I'm fairly sure it was still 2.5 when it broke into the 9's too, but I don't know about now :)

Best of luck ;)

    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
