meh .... maybe my idea of 'modified' is different to your idea of 'modified'. I will be doing a few small things to it, then that's all. I just mean I am not going to go nuts on it like I did to the S15 :P

just realised it was boof and his dr30 i spotted at lofty few weeks back

AHH HA!! Thought that was you!! The other DR was Crimmo if he ever post's in here *shrugs* On a run in drive for him!!

Sorry if we were a bit cold towards you, was weird day and both of us were having car issues as well...My left hand wheel spacer decided that it didn't like being bolted to the hub anymore, so tried to dislodge itself, luckily it did it a few streets from my house so i limped it home, crimmo was having over heating issues....Damn cars huh :)

Sall good then!

First time we've had both those cars on the road together actually, like i said bit of a run in drive for my mate and i was just out for a sunday jog lol!!

Im north atm, about 10 mins from ingle farm K mart, other mate is north eastern side of town, rarly drive the cars and when we do its usually in the hills! Thats only about the 2nd time i've actually driven the car anywhere near lofty in the past 2 years i guess, mainly cause its been off the road that long!!

Good to hear that noise hasn't come back, mine develops noises all the time and then the vanish, when they get really bad then you worry :zap:

;D

Spotted a suspect lookin silver S15 (Nightcrawler) ;) :wavey: on Satday arvo on Nth East Rd at Greenacres heading into town.

Also, last friday I received a serious case of whip lash (had to go to the chiro after :) ) when I saw a nice blonde drivin a dark blue R33GTSt into the St Agnes shoppin centre, it had custom white on blue no. plates (SKY ###...I think???). Can't think of anything sexier when the ladies drive nice modded imports :drooling:.

Was I going in a straight line at the time? I was having traction issues due to the rain! Darn I hate it when that happens hehe

My gf and I had an early night and on the way home spotted the d1 garage s14.5 drift car being put onto a tow truck opposite the coca cola factory. I didnt know that thing was street registered. If so, must have gotten defected.

Keep it looking nice.

Make it a bit of an Auto sling shot off the line. :D

      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.....
