Hi! Nice ride you got there.

It looks so different painted completely one colour as opposed to the black sections on the factory one. I presume it is a copy? Looks to be v good quality.

Hi.

Photograph looks to say Nismo not Nizmo to me. But yes 2.5" is standard.

Subaru offset is completely wrong for a skyline....

Using a SLI or Crossfire motherboard. Crossfire still has issues with certain motherboards, specifically DFI boards.

Thanks!

These are actually 17*7.5 you will find.

Don't bother going SLI with dual 7000 series cards, you will always be CPU bound. No current CPU can provide enough grunt to drive them. Ronin is correct about the RAM. Also there are no games currently that take advantage of dual core CPU. Synchronising the threads for a game is an absolute bitch and no-one has even attempted to yet. In light of this it would be more worthwhile to buy the fastest single core instead of going dual core.

Hi guys, trying to track down some bendix ultimates for the rear of my GT-T. Who in Canberra stocks them? Thanks

I have seen a few cars go thru rotors that quickly but generally only automatics. As for the price I would most definitely be trying to price the pads/rotors yourself as that price is complete bs.

Depends on the suspension setup largely, but a skyline will still feel big coming from a civic. Sounds like the ones you test drove had poor setups or old/worn shocks/springs.

Do you guys carry Bendix Ultimates? Need some rears, they are the same model between the 33 and 34 apparently.

Nice ride! If that's the stock turbo please dial down the boost. Far too much for the stock turbo and you will make exactly the same power more smoothly at 11-12psi.

Yes, Ian owns the 355 as I was dating one of his daughter's friends. Funny story actually, when he went to take me for a drive, the battery was flat as it doesn't get driven that much and he had to jump start it with their echo. How funny did that look, a Ferrari running jumper cables to an echo!

The stock red 355 is owned by the owner of the Holy Grails. Nice guy, he took me for a drive once. The torque was insane, pulled from the lights in 6th gear(to illustrate the point) like it was 2nd!

Big thumbs up to Johnny at Trojan. Usually go to Integra but it's just too far away from me and hard to organise a lift from. Got my car serviced today and got everything I wanted looked at and fixed where appropriate for a very very reasonable price and very quickly too. Also got some good advice and some niggling things sorted.

Satanic, hub dyno, reads higher than a roller dyno. Still a very good result.

That's not boost/fuel cut. Boost fuel/cut will make the car jerk and will throw you a bit forward if you are accelerating hard enough when it does it. Yes 1 on the stock boost gauge is approximately 14psi. The popping is unburnt fuel in the exhaust and nothing to worry about. Your graph looks very similar to mine when it was tuned poorly running 13-14 psi of boost. You may want to get that checked out.

12 psi is the generally maximum accepted "safe" level for the street. Even lower for the track. My tuning results proved that there was no point running more than 12 on the stock turbo.

The flat spot isn't really noticable to me, but it could be to others. We actually tried changing the timing around that load point to make it better but could not make any change to it. As for the boost tapering off, I suspect I have a leak in my turbo-exhaust gasket which is making that worse. I'm not sure how I'd describe the gear changes as they all feel slow to me as all my previous cars have been manual and don't really have anything to compare it to. I think though I'd lean more towards the glide into gear, the tranny had issues with the previous owner and had many parts replaced so who knows.

Yeah I was just looking at your post. Tempted to photoshop away the red curve to illustrate that the blue curve is much smoother but couldn't be bothered. At the end of the day a unichip really is just a glorified SAFC that can do ignition timing. So you would expect similar results, and as dyno results read different, who knows, yours may have more power.

The reason it has a unichip is because it's a tiptronic. You can't go aftermarket ECU because none can control the shift logic. And yes an aftermarket ECU will usually give a smoother curve than a plugin.

That's a before and after. The first red line was the shit tune that was done previously and was at 14psi. Far too much for the stock turbo and was causing surging resulting in the horrible curve. This was why I got it retuned in the first place. The blue line which is much smoother is with lower boost as I mentioned in the original post. There is still a dip at ~5000rpm which we couldn't seem to get rid of.

Don't put it in. You have no idea how much it is going to advance the timing and how lean it will make the car run. Oh and you do realise you just paid that money for a simple resistor worth less than 1c.....
