so who was down there?? I didn't see this thread before I headed down there with a mate in his F6 typhoon.

Saw Simon, I didn't catch the names of the other skyline owners there. Mine was the stock 34 GTR with the TE37's, not the lovely one with the GTC's :)

For everyone's benefit my stocker ran a 13.7 which is probably pretty spot on for a stock 34.

My mate's F6 (BAII) ran a 13.8 which is stock except for being flash tuned to 270rwkw.

3rd run ever, pretty stocked, specially with only 15psi, 38 degree track temp, 13 knot headwind and 18's.

Get a final tune next week, up the boost to 18psi and see how we go. Might wait until it gets a little cooler before I start my evening also (read get my missus to take a jacket so I do not have to leave at 8.30 hehehe).

Be cool to see if I could hook up some loaner 17's too but meh.

TWAS good fun indeed and how is the guy that bought that deluxe 34 Vspec from over east, the blue one with forged engine and GTSS's, reaction time: 0.001 WOW!!! winner of $300

Good fun isn't it :laugh:

Mph indicates you were down on power. Being a hot day possibly heat soak, you have cold air induction or just pods?

Hey I only just saw this thread!

I was in the modded blue 34, was running slow times because of a boost leak from a crack in my i/c pipe. I was launching it as high as 8k rpm and it was still bogging down! I fixed it yesterday, and omg shes quick now!! Wasn't a wasted night though as winning the reaction time competition for $300 was nice :)

Rematch this Wednesday Simon :D Hope the tune goes well, should be very interesting.

rev210 just pods mate, thinking I should isolate to get some cold in there but Xspeed said waste of time, I reckon heat soak. Did not get tuned today cos of heat

Get a final tune done with the bonnet down

Hot air = lower power

Thats why you have an intercooler

cold air partitions are a must for pods. Go backwards in power otherwise. The hotter the day + the more heat soak the worse it is.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.
