I was down in shellharbour last night visiting a mate, and on my way home this guy ina 200sx decided he want to have a race. I powered off the line to get a 2 or 3 car lead, after 70 or so metres, he just went past me like i wasnt moving, this thing was standard, no zorst nothing

anyone got any ideas, or who it was im sure he must have had nos or something like that.

Feedback would be great

Maybe he just wanted to make u feel like u had chance before he gave it to you on a plate ? Many people take off slow due to not wanting to just smoke the tyres. Who knows what he really had under there or how the boost or turbo was set to kick in. Prolly just dual stage BC. Probably not NOS

200sx beating a skyline is nothing amazing.

With just more boost they go very well. The exhaust could be aftermarket just not stupidly loud. My exhaust is close to stock quietness for instance and still flows well.

There doesn't need to be much done to get the 200sx to get a low 13.

I'll agree with you there Rev .... I work in an office where three of the guys own S15's .... one stock .... one with only a zorst ... another with zorst, FMIC and Bleeve Valve running a tad over stock.

I'm a little bewildered by the story though I'd assume the 200sx would still be quicker off the line due to it's weight advantage. My car usually kicks in about 4500 and I'll have a bit of catching to do against the last of those three cars.

Out of interest XXE ... did you catch this guys plates ?

You got owned

You think NOS

You say wanker?

No offence.

But my guess is he had a big ASS turbo.

It does not take much to hide a Front mount.

Just because the tip looks stock does not mean much.

I have seen a few 200sx that are cops off the mark but once moving they move.

One that comes to mind around Brisbane is one with the number plates 5TOCK. Looks stock but eats most cars I have seen him run.

I can get him off the mark but thats it.

Jimbo,

no sorry mate didnt get to see the plates, but im still curious, it was a green 200sx, around a 95 model i think, i mean hats off to the guy, he beat me fair and square. I was in front then bam i was history he just flew past me.

very quiet car, except when he went past me it went wooshhh and went quiet again.

MRE this thing didnt have a front mount trust me

XXE-R32: I trust you are aware that some people do go to lengths to hide modifications, to retain the sleeper image, prevent attention from the boys in blue etc.

Its very possible that a the car had a FMIC (Painted black) and also a full exhaust with a quiet (yes its possible) rear std looking muffler.

If it really was a sleeper then it certainly worked on you :uh-huh:

And especially considering that it was night, it would have been hard to see. It's like the R32 and 33 GTR coolers, I could hardly see them even during the day unless I had a good look :uh-huh:

i dont think anyone takes to kindly to loosing.

But as i alwasy say you have to learn how to lose b4 you learn how to win.

If i ever see this car again, i will be sure to be more careful, infact i dont think i will ever drag again.

      R34 power steering

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I have done smoke test and can’t see any leak on high or low side.   checked pump and fluid can flow through. Removed the high pressure from steering and did smoke test and same on low side, no leak.   puzzled. Thinking why if it was all ok it suddenly went as car was off road for a year. Don’t want to disassemble pump yet as i can see fluid / air( compressor) can flow through with no issues

      Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open

      Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
