I had a blast yesterday apart from the weather, car issues and it being freezing.

It was a great day a big thanks to the Peter and Adam for getting it happening for us.

I started the day off really poorly with getting the car back together at 3 in the morning then it would start on the day, got it sorted and arrived a little late. The first few runs I had issues selecting gears and made as small pedal adjustment to give more clutch bite. Ran a few more times and laid down a few high 12's. Everything was running well so dialled in the N20. Ran a 12.337 then a 12.028 off a 6k launch with a 1.654 60 footer. I was pumped I retuned the nitrous jets for a 100 shot and was ready to run that 11. Thats when the bracket racing started and unfortunately the rain too so it was all over.

It was great to meet a few more SAU people and put faces to forum names etc, gotta get some of those ARC winglets Baron look cool.

Adam you should of told me about your car, I could have dropped my car off at home ( 15 minutes away) then picked up yours and taken you both home, I didnt even realise or know you had an issue with the driveshaft thats a real shame you were running very well.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)

      Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T 1999

      By Bman1296 · Posted

      For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
