Thanks...

nah on very bald and old set of nittos....but when i heat them up with a decent burnout they are super grippy...

the 1.911 launch i completely changed my technique....increased it from 3500 to 5500-6000rpm....tried the two stage clutch and it felt soooo much quicker....

i used to hit it pretty hard and thats why i could only launch at 3500 cause any more would just bag up off the line....

tried the new technique and didnt even get it perfect and smashed my 60ft time....

My car makes a bit over 200kw....maybe a lil more cause i increased boost a little bit.

dont know if the car gear is a waste of time....if its already at its optimum it will be $300+ wasted...

but practice is whats helping me the best....been just 2 weeks in a row and keeps getting quicker...

an update on my first 1/4 experience. think I was the only R34 there.

"consistent" disastrous 60ft time!

1, 4000rpm launch wheel spun all the way through first gear and most of second.

2.5 60ft, ET 14.3 @ 108mph

2, 2500rpm launch (had a chat with Ben and was suggested to try with lower revs) bogged down big time

2.6 60ft ET 14.1 @ 109mph

3, best of the night 6000rpm launch, clutch back in as soon as I felt spin and then out (dont know what exactly happend happend all too quickly)

2.6 60ft ET 13.7 @ 111mph

had to go to the city afterwards so only had 3 runs, but highly doubt i would have improved on the time had i stayed. conclusion was that it was an exciting first drag experience and I have no idea how to launch this car! :D

now can anyone explain the 2rismo 2 staged launch techique (I would pay you to learn it :D )

Forged: was your car the Silver r34 gtt?

2.5-2.6 60ft is SHOCKING,

How much power does the dyno say your car makes? 111mph is quite high

What brand/size rubber you running on the rear?

Did you try lowering the tyre pressure for the rear tyres and attempt to do a decent burnout to heat em up?

Usually for someone with those 60fts, what you should of tried is just a normal take off (as you would do on the street) and i reckon you would of gotten better times, then trying to launch it at this rev or that rev because the tyres weren't up to the task. It happened with one of the guys in an r33 gtst he was trying this and that and his BEST run of the night was when he just drive it off the line as per normal as if he was on the street :D

yeah the silver one was mine. i saw a few white 33s there but didnt get the chance to talk. which car were you in?

it makes a bit over 250kw on the dyno so i was expecting much better times. obviously something wrong with my technique.

tyres are bridgestone s03n 255/17 at the rear. i lowered them to 24psi but did not do any burnouts been told they(burnouts) are ineffective with street tyres.

ive tried a normal take off which was my second run, launched with 2500rpm (as what Ben told me to try) it bogged down intially then as soon as it hits 4000-4500rpm (full boost) wheel spin began again until second gear :D

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
