Good work Paul, what class are you running in over there? seems odd to run 9 second cars against the big drag cars, they definately dont do that here, theres a class here for all the injected drag cars and they are running around the 7 second region and compete with altered's and small rails with small blocks. The handicap would of been huge, you would of been at 3/4 track before she even left the line lol :D

so does this mean the ppg "should" be pretty bulletproof now, or still possible issues with it? Are these shifters available for anyone or whats the go in getting one? I assume it can also be used on a circuit as well or only for drags?

Send me a PM regarding info if you can mate.

thanks

The first shifter was a custom job made from 4340 billet...we will be producing them as a self fitting upgrade.

you have pm

I want to see pictures of this new sexy shifter!!

here ya go...not much to see though. The white cable is the signal feed from the load sensors to the interface box (silver box with led's on side of console) the red button and black cable is to activate the anti-lag prior to launch. The shifter itself is custom made from 4340 billett and has 4 load sensors bonded to read in 4 different directions of movement. The sensors are then covered in epoxy and heat shink sleeve applied (black area under the gearknob) for durability.

Scared? The Dirtman ? lol!!

He will hit it when he is ready

ill not ever be running NOS in this car...as the Ignition DVD states "there's no need"

our goal is well within reach without it.

the cylinder pressures when running NOS on a high boost high rpm set-up hurt parts very easily.

it was installed a few years ago when i believed it was a necessity...nearly all the big drag GTR's don't use it and the power delivery is a bit too hit and miss for bracket racing unless its properly set-up.

    • Solid update, got all the downforces now.  You going to be running aus time attack again? love the jacking solution, spend the dollars on what makes it go fast is best way.
    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
