2) gets pads next to the rotors for instant application.

Pressurises the system and gets the pad to the face of the rotor. It makes a huge difference.

You know when you go to press the pedal, it's going to be rock hard. Which it is. If you don't do it, the pedal will travel a long way before the car really starts to pull up. This way, you have total confidence and it pulls up straight away.

It's just a touch, not enough to slow the car at all.

Sandown Turn 1,5 and Winton Turn 1(11) get the same treatment.

Most touring car drivers do the same thing, well that is where I stole it from.

I don't even think about it anymore, just natural.

I wish I knew, my car felt great down the straight, it was already wound off the clock in 4th and 5th just kept pulling hard, :rofl:

Yeh those 180kph clocks are pretty shit lol.

You were pulling away from me nicely Artz, I think I was hitting 250 up the straight, not sure how accurate my speedo is up there though...

I'd be very suprised by that.

My speedo doesn't work and only goes to 180 anyway.

Data tells me. 254kph max and 179 is slowest through turn 1. Crazy fast!

yeah 180 speedos are rubbish and mine reads 10% fast anyway, this was the first time ive used racechrono and got 231.

Rus, 179 though turn one is awesome ive got like 160 or something. must be that wing working?

254, impressive!

What about through the Hey Shed?

I'd be very suprised by that.

Perhaps they need a radar at the end of the straight. Turn one had a shit surface, I can't believe the speeds some of you were doing through there.

Sandown should be interesting with moar boost in the 76, should be well over 350kw by then (and I can actually get it to the ground unlike you guys.) :P

Wow. Didn't realise that hayshed was that fast! Awesome corner!. Apex was 187 and got to 196 before braking for lukey heights.

How bout you?

Could I send you the file to overlay? Would be an interesting for comparison.

I'd love to say it's all aero but to be honest I would say it's a bit aero but mostly being a lighter car. Mine is down near 1280kg. Probably a good 200-250kg lighter so that helps.

I think having the big wing and splitter will be improving the mid-corner a lot. Shame I wan't able to test the diffuser and cannards properly. Still disappointed I didn't get a good run before the engine let go...

My thing did 276km/hr last time - and it wasn't at full throttle.

These R35's sure are slippery things. My best max speed down there in the R34 was 245km/hr.

(These are GPS tracked speeds, not "speedo" speeds too).

Send it through.

I struggle for speed through hayshed a little, I'd like to be doing 200 through the apex. It's 180 at the apexi and 190 in the braking zone. I snatch 5th before turning in and am flat to the floor the whole was through. I have tried 4th a couple of times, but I need more revs as the thing is on the limiter in the braking zone in 4th. 5th is fine, as the car is very stable through that section of the track.

Turbo will small rear housing = no pull up top.

speedo said +230km/h but I was braking pretty early for turn 1. previous owner claims he saw 240~ on the hand controller once, but he also did a 1:54 lap so im not going to doubt it

Damn! That's fast! What power was that done with?

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
