I'm sure you'll get into 11's with slicks hey, I was going to film you after my last run but you'd run off. oh well.

HAHAH yeh thats me. The one who doesnt know how to take off.

I will be out again hopefully at the next wednesday night st meet but i'l be hoping its not as packed! I was expecting atleast a good 10 runs untill i got there and i was like "WTFFF". Well with the mph i was running it should do an 11 with ease though at jambo i will like to see the 10sec bracket.

Problem is hitting 3rd and wheel spinning.

well i watched the vid my mate took, he actually got my run against the m5

great launch, 2.1 60ft and halfway down the track you can hear my car rev its guts off and slow down a bit.... damn 3rd gear wasnt where i thought it was :P

so i missed my 13 i believe. i did however do a 14.0 with a 2.2sec 60ft

really needs the powerfc to unlock its potential i think

Yeah it was heaps of fun, being my first time I was a bit nervous but 51jay helped out heaps and told me what to do so I didn't stuff up or just start driving down the track without knowing what to do. Just gotta work on my reaction time (1sec heh) and it'll be better.

Thanks for the help 51jay appreciate it! Did you end up getting cracking the 13's?

I did manage a 14.1 as my PB out of 4 runs which I'm pretty happy with. Specially the fact its an auto.

Yeah I got paired with the M5. Although I expected it to do better it only did a 13.65, but it looked impressive.

But yeah hope to go again as soon as I can, I think Im hooked now too :P

Although dunno how I can drive any better cause an auto is pretty straight forward. Spool to 2k release brake and plant it. Gives pretty consitant times compared to a manual. What about using the hand brake to spool higher? Or shifting the gears manually? Although the power button does goto 6800rpm or so before changing. Leave overdrive off or on?

I will be at the next one for sure. Need practice to get consistant launches. Ignoring the last run where I gave it way too much off the line, I was getting about 2.3 60ft times which can be improved on I think. I didn't let any pressure out of the tyres though, so running 36psi probably doesn't help. Judging by my best terminal speed of 96.8 mph not sure I can improve my time by too much though. Time for some HP mods me thinks.

Bit of a unit you got there mate!

Thanks. Basically its got all the set up + more mods thats not listed on that website. Only difference now is that its a 2.5lt not a 3.0lt. Still, i should be good for 480rwhp using standard head, cams & cam gears. Currently its at 360rwhp (270rwkw). Still running low boost :(

James...i got your 2.1 60ft run against the M5 on vid but don't know how to load...you certainly do need a PFC, you will be able to bargin one from Nengun for near $1400 (HC + PFC).

Was happy with my runs. I was hoping realistically only for a 13.3 but now hopefully with some more tuning and better shifting, I hope for a high 13.1 next time

Was good to see so many skylines out there! And good to see skylines racing against other skylines. Will hopefully see such a generous turn out next time!

4 Doorz is your vid cam a digital or normal tape one? I can capture vids as long as theres AV/s-video output from the vid cam. Don't have a pc that can take firewire digital yet though. :P

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
