How bad is it to do a rev dump burnout in 1st gear? what is the proper way to do it? after rev dumping first gear, are you meant to put it into second while easing off the accelerator or can you flat shift it into second? I sat it on the spot for about 10 seconds in 1st gear and im pushing just under 200kw. Also, is it ok to just straight up rev dump it on second gear? Basically, what is the safest way to sit it on the spot

Not bad at all, we all do them all the time. Its the only way to launch a Skyline or a Silvia. And yeah flat shift is easy as, wait till valve bounce and pop it. Even third if your car is tough enough [c'mon u know it is!!!].

And finally, the safest way to sit it on the spot is to keep doing said burnouts till your clutch shreds. Then it will sit on that spot for as long as you want.......or until tow truck comes anyway.

I have 461kw + 1000Nm and no burnouts for me, reckon I will have to rev it till the valves bounce and step off, the only thing smoking will be my clutch, lol

Your tyres are too big for your 10 in rims. Stretch some 215s on and instant burnouts (if the tyres stay on that is...)

burnout is when you feel depressed and can't go on..............you were just pushed way too far and now your physically and mentally exhausted............bit like this thread really.

Do this, guaranteed good smoke:

  • Press clutch
  • Slot into 3rd gear (hold it in gear so it won't pop out)
  • Mash the accelerator, make sure it is bouncing off the limiter
  • Depress clutch as fast as you can, the faster the better

100% crowd pleaser, I did this at the SAU NSW Texi

Don't listen to this guy, this video clearly demonstrates how to do a burnout.

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
