Wheels are Racing Hart CPO35R light weight forged,18 by 8.5 and 9.5 rear with 245 front and 305 rear but now have 250 front and 280 rear. I really need wider rims to use 305 slicks so might get a pair of same wheel but in a 10 or 10.5 inch wide, offset in a little more as there is more room there.

Forgot to mention I now have custom alloy tank with 2 Bosche 044 pumps and a oil cooler used as a fuel coler on the return line which sits up under therear of the car.

Duncan says BLA BLA lets see it go though. OK will be soon.

PS More GTR parts going on teh Zed, as I ordered some N1 crank and cam seals from Nissan which are silicone I think, prob better for higher temp, and they don't cost much more. Yes thanks to Nissan they keep things universal rather than re tooling as skylines and Zeds have same crank and cam seals, spiggot bush and other items. Also has R33 GTS-T Nismo gear box mount come to think of it.

But hey GTR's use Zed AFM's but I think this is about as far as it goes.

I just did this today guys. Average lap time was 1.58. So how's 1.55? I am still getting instruction and damn how awesome is instruction huh? Before today my quickest was 2.01 I had a lot of bad habits. I am hitting the Apex ok but not using enough of the track when powering out of the apex and that's what I got better at today (yes got the tyre off into the sand a few times trying!) and it brought my times down a fair bit! Hope I can better it next time.

Yeh 1:55s is moving. :) Do you still have your speed limiter?

Im going to have to get back to Sydney with some better rubber and with my speed limiter removed, im about to drop out of the Top 10 ;)

Cheers guys.

Roy: Yes it must be removed as I go way over 180 on the straight.

It's only my 3rd time on track with the GT-R. Last time I had no brakes or boost and the time before that my intercooler pipe blew off before the day even started AND I had to get the car towed!!! (what a waste of track time and ca$h!).

I just didn't have much of an idea if it was a decent time or not. I was hesitant to let the guys time myself as I knew that once I did time myself I would only want to beat my own time and thus everything gets that little bit more dangerous! Playstation is one thing but doing it in real life is... well.. fun! :D hehehehe.

I was quick to jump on the idea of modding my car even more to get more power out of it to bring down my lap times but then I realised that this isn't such a great challenge. Instead I am going to leave the car the way it is for now and just get better at driving it to bring my times down.

So here's to looking forward to the next track day, more instruction and getting to know my GT-R! Hooray!

Thats kind of the way i look at it... :D

Obviously Production Cars run much more serious suspension and tyre packages then most ppls road cars, that said if you look at the fact that an STI runs 1:45s around Eastern....well one day i wouddl at least like to see those times out of my car. Im reasonably confident at the miute my car should be capable of between 1:48-1:50s since i now have better rubber, spee limiter removed and mroe power :) .... just need to get the driver up to speed :D

...after that its going to get lot harder to wipe of another 5 seconds

yea baby

Yeh i dont think i will ever match the times of the STI production cars. A friends 200SX does 1:48s so i look at that car and the guys driving ability as a bench mark for what i can achieve.

1:45s are the target, doubt i will get there though. But im hoping you are right. 140-150rwkws with speed limiter and road rubber hitting 180 down the straight and all thru turn 1 = 1:56.

So with R rubber no speed limiter and 240rwkws i would hope i can at least match my friends time of 1:48sec...but it took me 2 years to get to 1:56 so i dont think my driving will allow me to dip down to 1:50 straight away, i think i will have to learn how to drive the car with the new power :D

    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
