Heathcote 12/6/11

With 260awkw and a shitty clutch I finally managed a 12.2 @ ~110mph & 1.9 60footer - Man it was hard to launch out of the gates without bogging/frying clutch, but I finally managed a sub 13 Ash and got in DEEP!

Your car looked awesomely quick BTW - I don't think Heathcote was the place to get the full potential out of your car, at least we got shitloads of runs in!

12.2 in the end? FARK! Nice mate

Where did you find that whole second? :D

I ended up with 11.57 @ 121mph

1.78-1.90 60ft

I think the timing is farked @ Heathcote as my MPH was way down.

Will go to Calder in 2 weeks and find out the true story and hopefully get some better traction.

Hehe the MPH's were all over the shop. For me it showed 140mph on my 12.2 run BIG LOL, but judging by my previous runs I was averaging ~110mph.

I finally got the hang of how to launch the GTR - It really took me by surprise as I wasn't expecting anything quicker than 12.5. I backed up the 12.2 with two 12.4's straight after with 2.0 60ft. I think I shook her up when we had a heart to heart, I kept me end of the deal and she was driven gently on the ride home :laugh:

Would be good to test her out again @ Calder to compare, but I'm not sure if the clutch is up to the task - Still stinks now! Driver definitely need more work though :(

Thanks Anth, nice meeting you too mate! Yeah I reckon she's got a couple of more tenths in her to crack an 11 - Gotta get the 60ft down a tenth and I should be right :) Clutch is good for now, until next time haha

Yeah Scotty spur of the moment thing - Quick times in the end, shitty 13.6's to begin the day. This is my better clutch hahah, not sure if It's ideal for the way a GT-R is made to be driven!

well your fastest time was really good. maybe save and get a nismo twin plate clutch :thumbsup:.

already got the new exhaust at home for the evo but couldnt get the bolts off the cat :( also bought the same electronic boost controller as you that arrived just the other day.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. So I have my GTR on the lift and have been working on it a few days and today I unpacked the frontpipe that was wrapped with heat wrap stuff, because part of it was breaking down and soaked in oil. Noticed that the pipe itself does not actually look like a Mines, despite it supposedly being a Mines. But I could not find any fronpipe online that looks exacly like his, and I don't think it is a custom one. My amateur measurement also showed the two pipes are about equal length, so maybe this is just an old version of the Mines pipe? Would appreciate insight on this by the enlightened folks. greetings from Germany

      Yeah. If I plug the connector in and connect the vacuum lines, I assume worse case scenario is that it simply doesn't work? Yep PFC.

      I would think that rather than attempting to perform an engine swap, with all the difficulties associated with doing so in a country where the raw materials required are harder to get hold of, I would just build the CA20 for boost, find an EFI manifold for it and either add a turbo or a supercharger. Or both. You replace one set of difficulties with a different set, but I know which would be more fun.

      Well, a proper aftermarket ECU** SHOULD be set up to run the purge solenoid, same as the factory ECU would, so that the tank breather system continues to operate the way it is supposed to. I have no knowledge of whether the PFC (which is what I assume you mean when you say Apexi) has an output (and internal logic) to run the purge solenoid. If it does not, then given the product design intent for the PFC, which is to be a plug in replacement for the stock ECU, I would consider that a massive failing on Apexi's behalf and would be another reason to think that they were a half-arsed solution to the problem if programmable management on RBs. I would suggest that since Nistune came to market (which is a LOOOOONG time ago now) there has been no valid argument for choosing a PFC, especially if the PFC can't do things like this.   **ie, Haltach, Link, Motec, etc
