Hmmm... dont know about that. I'll pop the question again next time to them. All I've ever read about failing when launching is the clutch. At the same time, I've read about someone constantly launching his stock 33gtr and it took him 2yrs or so before he change it. Not saying I know how the condition of the car is but considering I have been treating her quite well + not much been mention about things breaking from people, I'd said 1 or 2 launches shouldnt kill it.

wow, serious? Is that what GT-R boys do?

7,000 rpm launch in my car = epic burnout

hell 3,000 rpm launch in my car = mild burnout :nyaanyaa:

7000rpm launch is soft. 8200rpm and dump the motherf**ker.

Martin you saw what happened when I launched it. 7k, dump clutch, squat & squirm and away we go. Gotta love AWD launches almost feels like cheating.

Work :'(. no utube.

I'm just thinking stock car, 7,000rpm launch, can't end well? But I may be wrong...

Weakest point of a stock GTR driveline is usually the clutch so it shits itself before you get a chance to ruin anything else. One or two launches won't hurt it that much.

Just picked up my keys btw so I can start moving in now hurrah :)

Supras I presume? They're nice but the choice of gtr over supra is pretty obvious when they're going for more than 130k in Singapore. Also, I dont find the supra sound very good (if you remembered how that black 1 sound like during the first EFI dyno). Hahaha.

There you go, seems GT-Rs ARE awesome enough to handle it.

P.S. Yes Colin, it feels like cheating because it IS cheating :nyaanyaa:

Yea man. I dont know what the hells been done to the engine but I find stock gtr got the very nice burble sound. But supra, lets just say they sound different. This may make you happy but I find all highly mod cars with huge HP, more than 500 or 600hp sound like tractors. They all goes like te-ter-te-ter......BAM! I remember the sound from a 1000hp supra on youtube.

Tris: I'd be able to pick you up depending on the time. If its gonna be Saturday, I'll need to f**k off around 4 though to pick the wify up from work. SO anytime before that it'll be fine.

ps: flood control ftl

Yeah probably. Nobody cares if you cheat and win though. It's only when you cheat and lose that you know you fail at life.

You bitch. Now I know you cheated when we're on Granard. Hahaha I wasnt even at 4k at that time. Yea I'm a puss. :P

pfft wasn't cheating you've got 300killerwasps. I needed to even the playing field lol :nyaanyaa:

oi sexyflamin mongrel what you doing this week? you got it off work?

Nah I'm in work I've just been doing all my running around for the unit during work hours lol. They've been pretty cool about it. If you're down the coast give us a ring and we can do lunch :)

Housewarming this weekend? Is Miss Cox gonna be there? Beach and bikini sounds good. Dan's back for the weekend too.

Housewarming is a possibility will be moving in on Saturday and Sunday. Maybe come down on sunday arvo we can go get Fish n Chips at the Spit or find a quiet beach n have a BBQ? Let us know if anyone is keen.

Sounds like a plan. +1 from me. Dont mind helping out for the move too. Let me know the time when its been decided. Peter's Fish Market is good stuff next to Palazzo Versace. I'll be free only after church on Sunday though.

mann up people 2 step ftw !!! none of this 7k launch bullshit. limiter / 2nd gear dump

*american accent*

"this is my skyline GTRRRRRRR, we've tuned her up and shes pushing aorund 1200hp at the wheels, so whats it like driving my GTRR on the streets? well its not as drivable as say a 500hp GTR on the streets, but if you really push it up on the two step and smash through the gears you can have a lot of fun"

-in car camera-

*limiter shifts through to 3rd gear on a public road in america, and by 2nd gear you cant see shit its soo blurry*

im going to look for that dvd tonight

      Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
