How responsive is it compared to stock?

You have basically the same setup im going for except you're using 2560R's whereas im going for the HKS GT-SS's. I'm probably just gonna opt for 2xRB25 AFM's too.

You're running the stock fuel pump minus the low/high resistor right?

Overall a very nice result, grats!

You can keep your stock afms with the gtss's Kris unless you want to run huge boost ( above 1.2 bar ) .

In relation to results at WSID - LOL

First time at the drags, I had 3 runs. Two of them i absolutely buggered up. The first run bogged down with a 2.2 60 foot time. Runs were done at 15 pound boost, because my boost controller was playing up :angry:

I'll be back next week a fair bit earlier

Dont worry Tommy, sounds like you had some first time nerves. Will be good to see what the car can do.

what kind of times did you run? for the 2.2 60 was it bogging down or wheelspin?

Getting the launch right in a GTR with big turbos is a pain...such a fine line between sitting there smoking and bogging down.

I guess the 7000rpm launches might not work with these turbo's hey?

do you need to ride the clutch for a little bit in this instance?

12.7 for a first outing is a good start for sure.

I would have launched that first one at 5000 rpm MAX. And i really dont make decent boost until something like 6k or more. Next time I'll try to rev it out a bit more. I think i got there at about 7/730, so it really didnt give me much time to have many runs. Had absolutely no idea what i was doing, where i was going, etc.

I will be there next week. Hopefully boost controller issues will be sorted and ill be running 18-19 psi.

Either the turbos are just really big and laggy for my setup or something funny is going on ?

What gear is it that you don't see 15PSI till 6000RPM? My turbos are bigger than yours and I get full boost (1.3 kg) by about 4800RPM in anything above 2nd. I don't think I even get full boost in 1st though.

      Cleaning my wheels 😍

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
