What tyres were you running and size, pressure???

I think you would run lower 12's if you decrease your 60 foot by a bit. Also I hope they did not let you run the water sprayers on while you did the run...that is just stupid!!!

And I am guessing that was with a bit of wheelspin considering the torque that engine must produce

Standard Nankang street tyres on my mags 235/40/18 with 20psi pressure - The water sprayers were on - they dont leak onto the ground - very small misting nozzles from the states - got them from a guy on this forum actually.

The run where i got a 12.9 was NO wheel spin. got a good launch - Clutch slip launch

18's??

try it again with a set of 16's and 225's with 20psi air in them.

I'm sure you could get it better..

hmmm..

in my S14 I was launching at 4000-4300rpm and that was best for me with heavy'ish 17x9's and 255's.

anything below 4000rpm and it would bog, even with slipping the clutch..

anything above 4300rpm would require backing off to get traction.

I raced, my first run was my new PB (not by much tho, down from a 14.145 @ 102mph). The next 2 runs were sloppy so I parked it for abit to watch all the PAC Rotory cars and heaps of other cars. Next think I know it's 10pm and i'm driving out the exit gate

14.009 @ 102.07 / 2.089sec

I also managed a 0.035 R/Time too which is my PB.

I was in full street trim (minus my subwoofer). Tyres (225/50/16) were still at 38psi too but I need some Nitto's now :/

I'd say without a doubt the best nites racing in a good 3mths or more... can't wait until it's winter again !! I'm still far from happy with my times but i'm still improving each week so i'll be back again.

  • 4 weeks later...

finally got to to to the street meet for the first time!! it was a good experience but disappointing! I had only 2 runs before the rain. first run i got bogged a little and my clutch not holding as well, and only managed 13.69s @ 108.7mph & 0-60ft 2.4s!!! well my second run i tried to launch at higher rpm (5500rpm) and riding the clutch but then my clutch (pressure plate) just gave up and got stuck half way! :cheers: getting my clutch replace this Saturday!!

will be back when i run in my new clutch!!

    • S2/3 GT-R is the same as S2 GTS-t The SRS airbags module in under the centre console. The S1/S1.5 GTS-t and S1 GT-R had the module built into the steering wheel. FWIW, I have a S3 GT-R wheel in my S2 GTS-t shit box. Same airbag plug, airbag light goes on then off, meaning all systems are go. S3 GT-R has red stitching, that's about it.
    • Dumb question, but why would it matter if the wheel came off a car with hicas or not?
    • Hey to anyone that reads this, long time lurker first time posting, sorry if it’s been answered before but I’ve been looking for nearly a year now for answers. ive got a 25det neo in an r32 that works awesome when it works (made 500whp on 21psi) but works 45% of the time, 1st issue there’s a harness that runs under the passengers side front fender that my tire keeps rubbing through and one wire seems to power the fuel pump even though I’ve done the relay “mod” some people like to call it, and when it does rub through it kills the car, yes next time I’m with the car I want to take the fender off and try tuck the harness well out of the way but I’d also like to try and by pass this mysterious wire as well lol, also wouldn’t mind getting power from the alternator as I’ve read it supplies the pump with 13v ? But no idea where to run the power wire too. 2nd issue, when replacing my fuel pump and fuel hanger I managed to break the factory fuel level sender leaving me with no fuel gauge, I’d like to buy the fpg fuel level sender for r32/s13 but the plug it comes with confuses me, I’ve got a detschwerks x1 fuel hanger which has light + pump - level + pump + and a ground, I’m no auto sparky but I’m wondering if I can cut the plug off the fuel level sender and wire the negative to the pump negative and wire the positive to the level positive to get a fuel gauge back ?🥴 3rd and final issue, the reason I want a fuel gauge is because whenever it’s below half a tank, it fuel starves like crazy and runs like a bag of shit even without doing a pull or sloshing the fuel round in the tank, I’d also like to fix this but have no idea what’s causing it, I’ve got a dw420 and a dead head fuel setup meaning the fuel is regulated before it gets to the engine, my only theory is that the return line is to close to the pickup on the pump and when it’s at half a tank the return line is causing the pump to cavitate enough to cause fuel pressure issues, that or the pump isn’t low enough in the tank which I would find strange considering I can’t find a single thing online about it, also if ya wondering how I figured out it happens at half a tank without a fuel gauge, I waited until it started happening and went and filled up and the car took exactly 30 litres every time I tested it, if ya managed to read through this mess I appreciate that and any recommendations , cheers
    • ChatGPT is trash and lies about things I would not expect it to lie about considering many things it's wrong about are very easily verified with google. The S3 R33 GTR shares its steering wheel with R33 GTSTs of the same production year. Part number is 48430-26U17. I'm guessing you have to get it from a car that came with HICAS though, the ER33 is 48430-26U18, but the HR33 diagrams note that part number is still leather vs 48430-26U13 which is not leather-wrapped. They all use the same airbags, so if you need another one you can get it off basically any same year R33 or Stagea.
    • I'm going to run hard lines front to back in the future. That should help dissipate a bit more heat. If not, a fuel cooler might be next
