The wrap up;

14.6 @ 158.9km/h

14.7 @ 159.8km/h

14.4 @ 156.7km/h

Each time, I simply couldn't generate the full blooded 3200rpm full boost launch that I can do on the street; time after time.

Frankly I was pretty damn disappointed with the times; it was just so lazy off the line.

After idling the car (in gear), through the session before in an attempt to get some heat into the gearbox, hoping that it would actually come on boost and do a decent; it finally did what I wanted and produced this.

To say I was pleased; is a bit of an understatement.

It left the line with about 7psi of boost at 3000rpm; so there may be more in it once I can get consistent boost control on the line.

Well done to Theo as well; a swag of 13.9's, regular as clockwork.

Good to catch up; top stuff.

Commiserations to Whitestag; hopefully your issue isn't serious.

Well done guys. Very consistent times Theo :)

Nice timeslip Dale. Is that about what I said....?

Big improvement over your stock runs, as you'd expect given what you've done recently.

Cheers Rudi; had a quick yarn with your young bloke out there, sorry you couldn't make it.

Catch you soon mate.

I think I raced one of you guys on my last pass before retiring with a blow radiator hose(maroon r32GTR). Grats on the times and very beautiful cars. :)

You went up against Theo (WAGON BOY) and you would've been able to wipe the floor with mine if you hadn't had to bow out.

At least it wasn't a major issue for you then.

Very nice ride mate; the Maroon looked very nice under lights. :thumbsup:

    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
    • Yeah for sure that is peddle adjustment 
    • What are your thoughts on this after having it for a while, worth getting?
    • Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
