Hi Mick, it was too late for your advise but you were spot on, did the 7k launch, on practically new Perelli 255/40x18, crazy span all 4 through 1st, fishtailed a bit and into 2nd span some more let it off a bit and away it went.

I then did it at 6k and that was a better, still too much , 5.5k worked the best, just enough spin, then off it went.

The AWKW is not much more than with the original T78, 7.6 AWKW extra with the PT6262, Poncam B, new exhaust and tuned for response, but it is just such a different car now :)

Thanks again for your constructive help. So many just say take it to 7k or 8k and step off or drop the clutch and that was not helpful

haha yeh Mick, just a street car for an old bloke but still fun..

Do you know anything about the HKS Turbo Timer, it seems to have a timing capability , not sure how accurate they would be but somewhere to start I guess.At least I could see if I was getting the times down??

Might try and do a day at Eastern Creek on the ARDC days, but getting there is the problem, got kids to look after and 4 hours to get there, have to spend a day or 2 in Sydney

I will keep up the practice and see where it leads :)

I'm gonna guess mid-high 11s with a good run given your setup and the tuner

It seems that once you get to a certain power, it then takes a lot more to knock off a second and heaps to get under 10 secs.

Your car is about 100 AWKW more than mine, what does that do the 1/4 in?

I have a R34 GTR with a 3.0ltr making 458kw at all 4 with a triple plate Exedy and stock Getrag 6 speeder that just ran a 10.8@132.23mph after weighing in at 1661kgs with out me

:thumbsup:

:thumbsup:

That is what I mean, with that power 458 AWKW doing 10.8 and your R32 at 293AWKW doing 11.13, 1.5 secs difference and 165AWKW to get that 1.5 seconds

What would you have to do to get under 10secs ??

It's actually 0.33 of a second difference but that run was only 24psi 436kw not the 28psi that did 458kw, there is a 250kg difference between the two cars, it's the MPH that tells the tale of power difference

The 32 is really just a freak of a car that I have been racing for over a decade so I know how to get the best out of it and with a bit more setup and seat time I believe there is another 0.5 sec to be had from the 34

Brb just going to have a look at the TT now

Ok so get yourself onto your "private" road lined up ready to go

Then on the display from where the count down screen push the M button 5 times, it will most likely come up 0- 1, then push the S button to scroll through till you get 0- 4, once that is displayed in a few seconds it will start beeping and flashing once that happens you are all set and it will automaticly start timing as soon as the start to move

Note, you MUST have the rpm and Kmh hooked up and set correctly

There is a lot more to these cars than I thought and very interesting.

I am lucky to know people with private property and a quality road to use but I have to tell the family when I am doing it :)

As soon as I get a chance I will follow your instructions and see how I go.

Thanks for your tip

I am having trouble with this laptop hope this gets through. hard to login and post.

I am lucky to know someone with property and a good road to have a chance to get some short runs in :)

Thanks for the tip

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
