ah ok np

only back for 2 weeks or so though... then off on my USA holiday :D so might have to will till November

I do have data logging through the haltech

i guess next time I can hook up a laptop and do some logging to see what is actually happening

the car did behave strange yesterday.... it keep stalling on me (its always had idle issue from the day I bought it)

def has a low 11 in though... the 11.7 run i did hit limit in both 2nd and 3rd so not doing that will shave .1 or .2 off the time

and hopefully 1.6 ft next will get me the low 11 which I was aiming at... (10secs was always a dream lol)... even got told by the tuner that it will be a low 11sec car

still keen on seeing this thing on another dyno to see some comparative numbers

Good work man gotta remember it was your first time at drags. Once u put it on Jez Dino pm your results plz I wanna look into water meth aswell got -9s like u. Mph should be higher tho. I ran a 12.1 with 320 kw but stock suspension and stock 220 no name brand tires. And that was 118 mph.

But good work. Your times can only get better now.

meh... i'm starting to get over chasing numbers now

have spent waaayyy too much money on it

it is what it is... I'm not going to forkout another couple of K to fix any potential gremlins hiding under the bonnet

will run it on Jez dyno when I have time... If its reading low and its not a quick fix its staying as it is

  • 6 months later...

Just an update on mine...

when I took it to the strip and ran 11.7 it had a pretty big boost leak

this was confirmed when I took it Unigroup's dyno day and I make 315kw (on a hot day). Yavuz said on a cool day it would make around 330kw. He also confirmed that there was definitely a boost leak somewhere as we could hear a loud screech.

I put on hard pipe kit on hoping it would resolve the leak (did it myself) but there is still a leak. I took it to PowerTune on saturday to see if it made a difference.

We did 3 power runs... all three made 332-335kw (this was the same dyno that gave me the 370kw reading). so i think the unigroup vs powertune numbers are comparable.

There is a big screech and a boost leak. the dyno shows boost dropping from 24 to 22psi.

I've left the car with PowerTune and they will fix the leak hopefully this week.

Then its back to WSID!!

sound like intake gaskets, time for some metal ones.

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all. 
    • Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.
