thought you would col good work

Hey can you delete the thread I made in the QLD section. I put there by mistake

Beat you too it... :)

I cant wait, i was only saying last night to mates at drinks that we need to get out to willowbank asap...

Their responce was well it would have to be a saturday (as they all would have a hard time getting to a wednesday night)...

So i just suggested this date to them like and hour ago and bam here it is...

SAU TNT... Yeah...

if I have my stuff sorted by then im keen

Of course you will Ian...

Even if you dont it would not hurt to get a base line run before you go on the modification trail...

In at this stage!

YEAH... Let Anna have a run too, i let Renee have a run in my car back in July last year... She was a second slower than me, but i smoked the clutch before letting her have a go... >_<

So she did very well to be honest...

she can run the R33 ;)

I will be too busy trying to get running the R32 down to miss out on track time! Once I nail the 12.5 she may be able to have a turn but :laugh:

If I can find some rims and gumballs for the rear by then I will definitely be in. >_<

Dont worry about it... Just run your street rubber...

It then gives you a good base line to run off when your talking about how fast your car is...

Im just gonna run my daily rubber...

Well I aint. the rubber you guys are calling standard and what I am wearing are 2 different things. >_<

What does that mean???

Forgive me, but i dont understand... Are you saying your rear tyres are worn out already...?

What you been up too in the last 48hours hey? ;)

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
