Just amzed at the dyno day yesterday as to how many lines (and others) cruised on by without the stones to stop and shoot the breeze with fellow liners.

Are we ugly or diseased or, are they just plain chickenshit. There were a couple of nice cars among them too. :laugh:

im not sure what you mean?

Not everyone was there to run there cars. I dont see how it has anything to do with balls at all, some just didnt want to do it. And considering the area its in, it doesnt surprise me that a skyline or two thats unrelated to SAU cruised past

Noel im surprised you can still count that high in your age? :P Nah true to the point yet we dont want the wrong crowd stopping. The fact was that who was there was the point the 99% majority of which were decent people. Thats quite satisfactory in my views there

178 mark. basic mods. fmic. pipes from turbo back. apexi pod. 10 lb boost. Not a bad ground zero to start from. I saw some rides make plenty of ponies but I suspect they could be animals to drive. Plan is to finish up around the 250 rwkw mark with most of the power in a very useable range. Mod selection is gonna be the key and i am going to drive a lot of people nuts before i settle on what I want. :P

so back on topic:

this isn't a new occurence

any organised event in the public section always gets a ton of club (and other forum) drivebys

usually noobcruising, which explains the bogans in their hilarious cars showing off their exhaust noise most of the day

(that and the 30 something skylines)

Edit: For hilarious read: Piece of sh*t VK station wagon with bonnet gauges and a supercharger, hah

Loud and clear Andy. I know that sound too well. :D

even some of the ppl i met there for the first time needed to strut their epeens by revvving off after the dyno.

but meh.. you get that i guess. me.. it got revved enough for the day so i let it idle nicely out... then it has a 300km drive @110kmh

so it got to stretch its legs

I was there for a look and was going to give my car a run, but $50 for a five minute run nah. The staff looked like they had enough they were not very friendly or helpful anyway.

And after a 300v motul oil change the day before you dont have much spending money left over lol.

People are just shy?

Honestly, this is a stupid issue to be brought up, we have nothing to hide, and there were no unwanted parties showing up, who cares that people are curious? anyone who is participates in this club is welcome, as also to those curious......

honestly who gives a crap!? ;)

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      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.....
