Yeah I'm about the same. Have done 3 laps. Spun on 2 of them. 1.47.222 on the third but it was a shit lap. Off the track lots. Missed most apexes of the corners. Could easily do a 1.46. Don't know about a 1.42 tho. On r3 tires I probably could.

Abywho I,m going tgo go play a bit more. I'm posting from my phone and am quickly running out of battery.

Ok, was just about to turn off the sony after I finished the lap I was on. Was the m3 on the stock sports tyres (not the r3 tyres) and got a 1.43.6. Only 2 small mistakes. Could probably get a low 1.43 out of them. Was super happy with that effort though.

And my 1.38.2 lap was only my 3rd lap on the race tyres. First lap was a 1.39.8 then a 1.38.8 then the 1.38.2

Fk 1:38.2 is epic! Want to see video...

So far, my best is a 1:40.6 on medium race tyres...

Edit: Omg 1:43.6 on sports tyres....

Must see video =/

You is el captain king.....

you can keep that one. so far my best is a 1.46.1 on el capitan on r3 tyres. i could easily get into the 1.44's (since i had an off on my fastest lap, but on another lap i was down 1.7 seconds down at the second split and got back up to 0.6 seconds down at the finish, and other laps i have been 0.5 seconds quicker at the first split but lose it going over the mountain), but i don't know how much better than that i could do. so if i could string a decent lap together i could get to a mid 1.44. certainly don't think i could get another 4 seconds out if it without changing the oil. even then i doubt i'd get 4 seconds worth. also only got a 1.54 on street tyres round there.

next track i'm going to play will be leguna seca or tokyo r246 or something like that. or even the seattle city course. i like that one. or midfield raceway.

so what's that then? you won tsukuba, i won fuji in the nike, you get the dc5 (was about to go have another go with the integra but it appears i have lost use of the tv to the missus). you can have el capitan cause i quit on that course. so it's 3:1. or 4:1 since i will gladly give you the ring without even trying.

so what track and car next?

Fastest I clocked with the legacy as mentioned above on the tsukuba wet track was 1'16.753

its such a delicate challenge, even half throttle too early just opens the line right up. argh! good one tho

Haha 4-1 cause I'm competitive :). With el captain, just have to be confident and turn in even though you think you're going to total it...

Damn, want to try tsukuba but I just lent my ps2 to my mate. He'll probably come in here and compete lol.

yeah that's why i picked it. and braking is even more delicate. i only did 3 laps of the wet track last night to get that time. first lap i still had driving aids on (realised half way round so thought i might as well finish the lap). that was a low 1.17. then my first lap without driving aids was a 1.16.8 and i finished it half on the grass, so the next lap i was half a car length behind my ghost at the first corner due to the slower speed across the line. i didn't catch my ghost until the last corner.

next i think i might have a go in something rwd around the tsukuba wet track. something like a stock 350z.

    • No, with a twin plate clutch flywheels and clutch pressure plate/friction disks go together. Only clutch where that isn't the case is the Uniclutch but they currently don't make a pull version for the Getrag R34, just some other cars. Personally the flywheel is as light as I'd want it to be. It already drops revs faster than I want to shift normally and I blip the throttle again to rev match on upshifts.
    • Are there any other lighter flywheels that can be used with nismo coppermix twinplate system? Id like to gave the revs pick up faster than oem
    • RB20/25 covers don’t have threaded fasteners stock like RB26 covers. They are blind rivets so I will need to drill out and tap threads. I bought some M4x6mm button heads and will report back once done if I chose correctly length wise.    have also got some loctite 
    • Interesting. I've not dived into the cleanliness of the factory CAS. I'm curious if the variations are less of an issue if the OEM sensor were brand new. Optical sensors if they're starting to get dirt and crap into them as they're getting older would definitely cause issues as they age.   It's an interesting point to keep in the back of mind for me though
    • Hmm. Tough one. Without knowing where the conductivity value is supposed to sit, it's hard to know whether a standard DMM set to an available ohms setting would be able to measure anything. Ohms being the inverse of what we're talkng about and probably good enough for the girls I go out with. But if you want to go all hoity toity with a 4 wire rig - go ahead. It can only be more accurate - just in case more accuracy or repeatability turns out to be required. If you're going to the effort, just go chuck the ohm-mage probes into the car's reservoir and see if you can measure anything at all?
