R35 Gtr At The Drag Strip In Perth "first Run Was A 11.6"


Recommended Posts

the car ran identical trap speeds of 179.69klms. So it backed off quite early from the finish line....

All that being said congratulations to lil bro and cant wait to see the times when its prepped and caged for targa...

P.S Cant wait till my bloody one arrives.

Told my brother (he drives a supra...reckons its faster than a speeding bullet)...he said 'thats bullshit, they must have modified it or something, slicks....' I laughed my ass off...said 'no, its stock'...still doesnt believe me....:)

the car was dead stock, the back seat and sterio was removed, there was a cammera set inside the car to record, and i got a few shots and a vid of it too but im stuck at work at the moment.

by the way it hit the 180 just over 3/4ith ish not 1/4th my bad.

it was amaizing to watch altho it was such over busy night it "we only got 2 runs" it was great to see it in action. I think it will be seen on ASG next month :D so keep an eye out.

All I know is Steve said he had a camera to take a movie of it and I haven't seen him today so I will chase him up later.

Champion.

You should buy my Stagea too.

Just keep in mind running times at a strip compared to using a system like a Correvit style system that most car companies and magazines use will always net a different (read: faster) time. See, at a strip, timing doesn't start until the timing beam is broken. With a hard launching car like a GTR or Porsche turbo etc you'd probably already be doing 10 - 15 klm/h by the time you break the beam, hence the "quicker" dragway times. Correvit and GPS based systems start timing as soon as the vehicle moves.

Regardless though, that's a fantastic time for a stocky :dry:

see now thats a good explanation!

ASG - All Star Garage?

All that being said congratulations to lil bro and cant wait to see the times when its prepped and caged for targa...

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
