We had a great day, Kevs GTR ended up running a 10.53 @ 139.75, the R33 4 door isnt a bad car either, it ended up going 11.5 @ 133.68 on M/T street radials, both cars suffered major traction issues. We had fun wich is the main thing!!

Hey Ben. Just wondering how much power the GTR is pumping out at the wheels?

Cheers

Pete

Hey Pete

Mine makes around 250rwkw on 1bar, is your kw figure at all four wheels or at the rears?

Mines previously gone 12.1 at 115mph, however on the weekend the car struggled to do a low 12 and the mph was way off what it should be (even with the street tyres back on it) so I am putting it back on the dyno later in the week to try and see if there is a problem somewhere.

What mods do you have planned for it next?

Mine has 234kw at all four wheels. Or 276rwkw on a different dyno.

Current mods: 2x Garrett 2860, N1 oil & water pumps, forged pistons & rods, Nismo 600cc, PFC, etc.

Next mods: Apexi boost module for PFC (boost 28-30psi), Z32's, tomei poncams, semi slicks.

Im building the car for circuit, but it would be great to get into the 10's on the strip one day!

Ben what tyres did u get? I need to buy rims & tyres. Im trying to decide between GTR33 17x9 rims or cheaper GTR32 16x8 rims..

Standard brakes. Wont upgrade brakes for another 1-2 yrs..

Any advice on rim/tyre size?

Cheers

Pete

Thanks Justin, I wouldn't have improved my time without your tips/advice on the day! Was good fun. Shame about Harry's car, time to upgrade those cooling mods! Tuff gate too :thumbsup: Hope to see him on the track again soon. Pete's R32 was very nice, looks hot.. and quick as well! Looking forward to seeing your GTR finished :)
Hey Buddy, did you work out what that vibration was from front right?

I sent you a PM so it doesn't get too off topic here

I noticed at the monthly meeting there were some pics shown from the drag day, to whoever took them is it possible to get some of the ones of my car emailed to me? Or are they hosted somewhere?

PM if necessary, thanks.

Thanks for that Bec, I appreciate it if it's not too much trouble to send the pics of my cars through.

My address is contact @ mazdarotary.net

Thanks heaps

140mph?! jeesus

The timeboards read a little bit 'happy' sometimes, that run was an example of that, as I was in the other lane and the cars were pretty even across the line (I did something like 110mph).

I had to double check it as well when I read the timeslip haha

Ben - Evan (Startrippa) took all the pics at the drag day.

Ive got a CD with high res versions on it - will try to remember to bring to work 2moz and email you.

will they be posted anywhere on the forums?

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
