Summary sunny.png Min 11 Max 27 Becoming windy. Sunny. Chance of any rain: 20%rain_20.gif Rainfall amount: 0 mm http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/forecasts/sydney.shtml http://www.bom.gov.au/products/national_radar_sat.loop.shtml Im confident, LOL, famous last words.....

What tyre package you gonna run Mark

Too much wheel spin last time I heard.. U need a GTR :P

No cheating for me mate,LOL.

Ill be running the 255/40 17 Hankooks RS3,s (UTQG 140) again, Im sure with some patience and slipping of the clutch I can brake into the 11,s on them.

Im still running .75 deg of neg camber on them ATM, next time Ill get them flat and see what that does.

Eventually Ill get me some Drag Radials and go for gold (i.e booted off for doing a 10 in a regoed RWD Boat)

haha well hopefully it looks like rain but doesn't end up coming so the numbers stay down and you can get plenty of practice!

Big rb30, too much torque!! :)

you 2 need to come out and play

Soon enough Nick, final tune next week hopefully...

You get your beast down the strip, I want reports of 11 sec passes tomorrow night!

Sean based on previous experience i doubt you would even be able to find your way to the drag strip :D

You would probably end up out a cronulla or something like that!

    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together
