see my sig for times.  (beofre cooler and flywheel)

I looking for 12s (12.9) as I just fitted a lightweight flywheel which are reputedly good for 0.4 - 0.5.

Also bolted in front mount cooler which should add a touch.

PowerFC coming soon.

Definent 12s

I doubt whether the flywheel would help you that much. So if i fitted the flywheel i would be running mid 12's, i doubt it, but still if i picked up 0.1 i'd be happy.

I picked up over 3/10's and 4mph with the intercooler.

Yeah I agree thats why next time when I'm not wheel spinning so bad I will get the 120mph. 120MPH should put any car deep into the 11's even 10's.

You can watch the video of it the car lights it into 3rd gear

BR,

Alot of mods there, i wouldnt be happy with anything short of 120mph.

I still cant beleive you got a 12 with standard turbo, are you SURE its still the standard turbo? I spose with that 60ft time and a perfect drive its not impossible

Here's my response from boostcruising:

I'm in exactly the same situation as you so here's my advice based on waaay too many hours of research:

- 2530 will make plenty of power all the way to redline. You've picked the perfect turbo so don't worry about that.

- I'm also hesitant to upgrade my injectors without really needing to. You've got the cost of injectors ($300-400), management ($1500-2000), AFM ($300) plus labour. Just make the most out of what you've got and be happy with it.

- Get the car on a dyno and just run the most boost you can before totally maxing out the injectors. I'm hoping to run 1.2-1.3bar max.

- Put some 225/50/16 semi-slicks on your stock rims (something like Falken RT215s which are fairly cheap) and drop the air pressure to 20psi.

- Swap your coilovers for a standard set of springs and shocks for the weekend.

- Install 'pineapples' (subframe bushes) to minimise axle tramp.

- Lightened flywheel will definately be an advantage. I'm looking round for a twin plate clutch which come with lightened flywheel, not as light as aftermarket but better than stock.

That's exactly what i'm planning for my car and hopefully with some practice and luck i can run a 12.7-12.8 (or maybe slightly better with my weight advantage over the r32).

WSID was designed to be one of the quickest, legal drag racing tracks in the world. There's alot of sneaky development that went into building the track, that all fits within acceptable rules. Little things like the maximum amount of downhill gradient allowed, track surface and base, as well as the U shaped design to mimimise headwind etc.

Thanks,

Scott

Hi mate,

with regards to spinning on the rims Im not sure I am no way a tyre expert I just tried the 20psi then 15 but found huge difference with sub 10psi in them.

Yes doing 12's on standard turbo does amaze me a bit. ?? Have you guys got a dyno print out ? The guys pulling the high 12s ons tandard turbos?

BR,

JH

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
