Congrats on the time man, gives me something to look forward to when I take mine down the strip (assuming I can drive it properly :)) as I have a similar setup.

Once I can get it launching properly, hoping for mid to high 11 second pass... but yeah congratulations dude ;)

Congrats on getting into the 11's mate ;)

You just can't beat a mild street GT-R set-up. An 11sec street car that can put its power down with minimal fuss, you've got to love that. 4WD ='s sub 2.0 60's even if you can't drive to save yourself, like me :)

Just going off topic for a sec... Buster (Brett?) do you use your NT555's for general street driving? And if so, how do you rate them?

In japan i ran :

R33 GT-R(not vspec)

HKS Full Exhaust

17PSI

Maxxis Tyres 245's ( MA-v1) : they are really crap.

HKS Cam Gears

11.98 @ 118Mph

60Ft = cannot remember i think 1.8 ?

Standard ECU

button clutch

TRUST AIRPODS

with some good pair of tyres and uniglide and 22PSI i could easly do mid to low 11's.

Yep I've got one pair on my 17" Volk TE37's rear (everyday wheels), and another pair on the 16" R32 GTR rims (drag rims), I have found them to be great grip wise as what ever I can do at the stripp I can near do on the street if needed, though they wear out pretty damn fast

Thanks for the info Buster ;) As soon as funds are available NT555's will be going onto the rear. If they last me 2-3k, with a couple of drag meets mixed in, I'll be happy enough. The used pair you had for sale, they were 16's weren't they?

Sorry for the small hijack everyone... carry on :(

This is why I was surprised with the terminal speed of Mark's pass with GT2530s...

Damn!!! Just got back from calder, 12.00 @114mph......

I want that 11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, stock turbos running 1.1 bar, stock ecu.....

114mph with stock turbos and stock ECU :stupid::/:rofl:

And that's with 260rwkws (274rwkws in shootout mode) and Nismo twin plate clutch, fark that clutch can take a beating and keep biting hard...

hahaha thats cool, you should be able to get 3k out of them and a few drag meets for sure depends on how big a burnouts you do, yeah I'm selling the 16's

Thanks again mate. I'm not one for HUGE burnouts, but if that's what the Nittos need to stick, then so be it :D I'd like to try and squeeze 275/40/17's on the back.

Merli,

Mark is not running the 2530s no way near to their full potential yet.

2-3 mph difference between Jack's and Mark's run adds up to the 20-30 kw difference at the wheels.

High 120s is achievable with the 2530s and maybe that magical 130mph. That may be good enough for 10s on Nittos. :P

    • Convert to dual filament bulb   FWIW, it will look odd - I dare say a bit dumb as it looks like your flasher relay has shit the bed.
    • If the RB20 box in the car is a push clutch, then yes, you will need to deal with the pull clutch on the turbo box. You either buy a pull clutch and don't use the old one, or you do the things needed to convert the turbo box's clutch arrangement over to push. Which is a bit of a f**karound. "Making" a custom tailshaft is the easy part. But you will need to source the front clip yoke - the bit that goes into the output of the gearbox. These are not as easy to find. They are out there, but they don't grow on trees the way that they used to.
    • Indicator bulbs are way too bright to use as a "corner marker" (we call them parking lights too). Sure. Go ahead and do it. But realise that you wil need to come up with all your own wiring to do it, as no-one will have a standard howto worked out for Skylines. It's just a matter of abandoning everything that Nissan have done and starting from scratch. You'd probably be better off retrofitting tailght/brakelight globe bases into the front indicator housings and using the taillight circuit for your corner marker and the brake light as the indicator. You'd need to work out how to kill the marker circuit while the indicator is flashing, otherwise it won't flash on-off, just bright-less bright.
    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
