i wouldve thought with my mph that i couldve done a bit better...may need some more practise.. :rofl:

i was launching at about 3k...

R/T - .486

60' - 2.189

330' - 6.027

660' - 9.169

mph - 79.13

1000' - 11.816

ET - 14.067

MPH - 101.05

Km/H - 162.63

At the time, mods were..

Whiteline suspension

pineapples

full exhaust - hi flow cat, dump pipe and cat-back

GTR intercooler

lightened flywheel & ceramic clutch

stock boost

Hey Adrian..

thanks for the advice.

When i slip the clutch, the ceramic combined with the lightened flywheel doesnt make the car too happy...thats why i was dropping it (as best that i could) at about 3k...

Im hoping the extra power the car is putting out will be controlled by the clutch if i slip it out while revving harder..

Hey Cameron - i actually thought my 60' was a bit lame. I would like to get it to a 2.0 flat..

Hey Adrian - Yep thats what im hoping for next time i hit the drags...My tyres are (unfortunately for drags) 18's....but i have 265's on the rear, so i may have a sporting chance...

Thanks SiksII - its great fun !!

i believe alot of it is how you drive your car and the track conditions at the time. my car ran 13.85 @ 101 miles/hr in Darwin of all places. it has similar mods, except i have standard clutch and no suspension mods at that time. Also still have stock intercooler. Like i said above, every 1 is different as to how they drive there car down the 1/4. It was 29 Degree's that night and the track is pretty slippery.

209kW and good tyres should see a high 12 if you can drive.  My car makes less power than that (193kW) and ran a 12.799 @ 105mph.

Are u serious!?

first attempt at 1/4 about 6 months ago i did 13.8@104

spose that was launching at 2200rpm, but still your a second faster with 1 more mph :confused:

Yhe i agree with 2rismo. I ran a 13.4 @ 108mph wiht a clutch slipping in 2nd and 3rd gear, couldnt tell if it was clutch or wheelspin in 1st gear:( That was with a 2.4 6-ft time (i cant drive plus slipping clutch) and only around 180-200rwkws tops because if i ran more then 1bar then i had a miss.

So about 200rwkws (tops), slipping clutch and sh1tty 60ft i still ran a 13.4. Isnt the theory if i cut 3/10s of my 60ft then that equates to between 0.4-0.5 seconds thru the traps?!?!?! SO that means i woudl be looking at about a 12.9/13.0, then a clutch that didnt slip and im sure i would have been able to run a 12.8 (approx).

LOL, Splitfires and 1.4bar and i reckon i can give a 12.5 a nudge:)

There is a small but noticeable weight difference here. An R32 with 200 rwkw should run a fast ET than an R33 with 200 ya?

Looking around these forums I would hope to get 13.6 with my power except that then I remembered that I have a 4 door and it's heavier than a 2 door R34. Makes for better balance on the track but there is a little extra weight in it which may be making a difference on the strip.

    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32
