OP, if it were me (with a standard bottom end), I'd be putting -9's on it, pegging it at 23 psi or so and make a responsive 340-350 on E85 - seeing that you're going down the E85 route anyway. The car will have much more area under the curve than a -5 car. I really think -5's on a 2.6 are still a bees dick too big. They really need a stroker.

I'd offer my own car up for a drive but my box is

deaded and its not really a fair comparison to what you're going to get with a stock engine.

Ive been in a car with n1's and supporting mods and it wasnt for me. I think we are going to aim for a higher number than that at the moment and the whole reason for the e85 is to make it that little bit safer at increase power levels. I know some people may consider it as a bit of a ticking time bomb, but there are plenty of guys in the high 300's around the world on completely stock engines. And nevertheless I am prepared to forge it if it blows and then chase even more power.

I think I will be upgrading my -7's for -9's for that exact reason (-5's being a little too laggy). 350awkw is my target and I'll be happy for a long time I think.

Good luck with your build OP.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
