ALso....

I know of a friend that had a gtr r32  

Mods:  

- Full exhaust

- Pod filters

- Clutch had been done (Not sure which one)

he pulled the hoses off the turbo's So he was running max boost

Did several 11.7-11.9sec passes...

But he eventually Killed the motor...

Wow, we have a winner :uhh:

Haha.... this sounds like the josh (nismo_boy) method of raising boost on a budget.:idea:

Profile is actually a percentage of the tyre width. Which is why when you go wider your profile has to be lower (percentage) to keep the right rolling diameter.

Exactly what i was trying to say :D

i have stock turbos on my r32 best is a 12.0

i was taking off at about 6500rpm....

side step i did a 12.1 first pass and got excited so i stepped of it at 7000rpm just spun all fours for first gear and ran a 12.8 haha

i have semi slicks to go on now 245s....

so ill run low psi in them and do a 8000rpm take off and see how it goes! should be easy 11s my best kmh was 181

The only way that you will run 11's with "standard" GTR turbos is if they are highflowed.

Not true, a freind of mine has a stock GTR with exhaust, stock turbo's, stock everything else, just a bit more boost and he's done 11s, "just"

Best method for launch I have found is to roll in using the handbrake, pulling it up just enough to control your speed into stage, one fully staged, hold it up hard, have the clutch just starting to bite, as soon as the first orange comes on, go flat to the floor on the throttle and you'll get 2 or 3 good bangs off the rev limiter before you dump the clutch and handbrake at the same time.

Best 60ft with this method in a 1740kg GTR (full street weight with extras and 105kg driver) on DOT tyres is 1.39 Never broken a stock axle or diff.

Do you use GRID Dancer or HKS split for make your fantastic burnouts on blue R34 ?

      There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)

      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).

      Custom titanium intake

      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
