Hey Blitz,

I will be staying at the hotel (new T) on the 14th, we fly out the next day so Friday is the only day I can have a look around. What are you guys up to on Fri??

Ken

Ken,

I assume you mean the New Tsukamoto hotel? Friday is the press day for Autosalon which we hope to get into. If you are at the New Tsukamoto then we can meet after autosalon for the nights festivities. There will be a number of us staying at that hotel.

Hi,

I am Japtaxi's gf - living in Nagoya, Japan. We are coming up to Tokyo on Friday night. Here is where we are staying for Friday, Sat and Sun nights:

I am not sure how far/close it is to TAS. We are also going to stay here on Mon/Tues night:

Then on Wed we are heading up to Sapporo, Hokkaido for 4 days and 3 nights. Then it is back to Nagoya and back to work for me the following week.

Japtaxi will have a JR Pass and I won't, so I plan on getting any train tickets when we want to catch the train - will this be a problem? I hope we can sit together.... :Oops:

Basically you need to be a member of a press association, and/or be covering the event for a publication. Don't take my word as law though, this is just the requirements as I understand them.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂

      Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges.

      UniClutch

      I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.

      Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
