I'v only got boost set on 12 pounds, cooler, Apexi RSM and turbo back 3inch (gutted cat) and it pulls in third very quick and there is constant power all the way to 253kmh in fifth. i used to have flat spots even a splurt but got it all worked out on dyno and the less restrictive ur exausht the more flow. 1st and 2nd are a waste, tyres lighte up all the way and seriouse speed comes in third onwards. trust me, dyno is worth it.

Wish you were closer so we could have some roll ons to compare and see if the 1.5 pounds more does much, i have a very restricted 3 1/4inch system keeps the police off my back! Is 253kph red line or just wont pull anymore?

late second gear (over 4500rpm) all the way until say 1/2way through 4th is where i kill every car but i very rarely get to go into 4th (Its just to fast to be safe).

most cars pull away in first gear (even with a good launch) coz they are either V8's or 4wd Turbos or pocket rockets but once your 1/2 way through second you catch them very quickly, usually u catch them before the redline in 2nd, then 3rd you just pull away :D

i have never tried this with my new EBC, it will be interesting to see what its like :D

I have too much in third and start to wheelspin on coarse road surface at 100kmh. Wheelspin in the wet also at 180 in 4th too if I floor it. Modified stock turbo from Rigoli but mostly stock with 0.5mm OS pistons. Dump pipe and IC are stock for now but 3" zorst and hi flow cat. Power comes on like a sledgehammer at 4000 so maybe thats why it does what it does and only at 11psi. Bit laggy though under 4000 and have trouble staying with stockers through the roundabouts out here. The straight bits inbetween make up for it and the handling but slow out of tight corners.

I use an EBC @ 0.62bar (full boost @ 2900) and i found if i hit it hard in third, it gets a bit overwhelmed with fuel (or something?), so if i just ease it in (over 1sec) it responds alot better and seems to 'avoid' the flat spot.

weird stuff.....

which controller do U have and what do they retail? I could use some of that!!!!

That seems consistant with 'lines that you have to feed the power as they go soft at pull pedal when running the std computer. Anyone else experience this?

    • had 4 weeks off over xmas and well did some stuff to the shed and BRZ, well short of is I don't work full time in supercars anymore as of yesterday.........
    • Did you get any down time over Christmas, or have you had any since to play with this? Or have you given up and are trying to get yourself a second hand V8SC instead?
    • A random thought I had just before I hit "Submit on this post". If brake fluid, in a container in my garage that has never been opened goes bad after 18 months, why can I leave it in my car for 24 months in an "unsealed container"... Secondly, some other digging, and brake fluid manufacturers seem to be saying 5 year shelf life... Me thinks there line on 18 months for an unsealed bottle is pretty much horse shit marketing spin. Kind of like how if you drive a car and don't run a turbo timer your turbo and motor will die horribly...   Where I started on this though... Someone (me) started down a bit of a rabbit hole, I don't quite have the proper equipment to do Equilibrium Reflux boiling per the proper test standards. I did a little digging on YouTube, and this was the first video I found on someone attempting to "just boil it". This video isn't overly scientific, as we don't have a known reference for his test either. Inaccuracy in his equipment could have him reaching the 460 to 470f boiling point range in reality. In the video, using a laser temp gun, he claims his Dot3 that's been open in his florida garage for over a year gets to about 420 to 430 fahrenheit (215 to 221c) Doing some googling, I located an MSDS for that specific oil, and from new, it claims a dry boiling point of 460 to 470f. Unfortunately they don't list a wet boiling point for us to see how far it degraded toward its "wet" point. While watching it I was thinking "I wonder what the flash point is..." turns out its only 480f for that specific brake fluid....   As for testing the oil's resistance, I might not be able to accurately do that unfortunately. Resistance level will be quite a LOT higher than my system can read I suspect based on some research. However, I might be able to do it by measuring the current when I apply a specific voltage. I won't have an actual water % value, but I'll have some values I can compare between the multitude of fluids. I'll run some vague calculations later and see if I should be able to read any reliable amount of current. These calcs will be based on some values I've found for other oils, and see how close I'll need my terminals together. From memory I can get down to 1pA accuracy on the DMM. I don't think my IOT Power Tester has any better resolution.    
    • 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
