  1. Remember kids - MPH does not like. Finding it funny a few posts lately of cars making "X" power, but being a good 5mph down. Proof is in the pudding.
  2. That's quite a big difference in response for 40rwhp!
  3. It's closer to $1800-$2000, i PM'd him to check the GB pricing is going to be better, and it is
  4. Perhaps next time have a read of this before starting an event http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/164533-organising-an-event/
  5. This. If just driving around realistically you only need one pump running so have a trigger setup based on speed/throttle/RPM with the Wolf, I'd imagine it would have an input to do something like that.
  6. Yeah SQDM is as much about the people you play with, helps to have an organised group and can be quite intense/fun I've found.
  7. Taking the swaybars off will actually let the car float around a little more. I know a few GT-R owners who will drop/loosen the front swaybar if it's really wet at a track day to get more weight moving
  8. Only ones that are put together loose to begin with. None of my motors have ever made noise on start up. I've heard plenty of other builds over the years and most of them also do not have noise either... But there is always one every now and again that rattles it's nuts off... I certainly wouldn't be happy if that was mine
  9. There are no "donations", they are taxable item as they are classed as income. It's Christian's decision on the subscription/contributor stuff. Out of my hands
  10. I'm better you have poor tyres combined with suspension too hard makes for a difficult life. I could drive my GTS-R in pissing rain, with 245/255s on the rear and 370rwkw - not having an issue at all with spinning out. The suspension was as hard as a rock with virtually no movement in it at all (12/10kg springs). Difference was I was spending $300 a tyre.
  11. Yeah if we only got around, so so close. Just needed and Assault with us and it would've been massacre. I ended up playing Metro again later on, and got around the back in a similar fashion and minced 7 people down in a big spray push. Was hilarious
  12. It's double exp this w/e isn't it? If so ill probably be on a bit
  13. Fun night indeed I'll still be on for an hour or there abouts with clan people, anyone is welcome to join just hit me up on battlelog
  14. Close Quarters, one of the expansion thingos
  15. Have CQ rather
  16. Be on in a few mins, just talking with a mate, clan server looks quiet so we can just whore that for now possibly Do people CQ?
  17. They are both bolt onto OEM. They both have similar response, make similar power and require the similar levels of boost to do it. The turbos will reasonably close as opposed to different ends of the footy fields. There is only so many ways to can skin that cat in a OEM frame. Did those same people tell you that; Heat can be controlled by the tune/boost levels & overall cooling setup of the car. Housings/wheels are the contributing factors. They are NOT the single point cause. What temps are we talking about here btw when the detonation occurs? I’m assuming you are logging it to safely say it’s not the tune? End of the day mate you can here asking for help. Several people all saying basically the same thing, which mind you, is coming from the information you are giving us. Seems odd to me that a few different people would all have the same view. If it was not clear cut, then there would be many theories. It’s a 15 second job to pull 2 degrees of timing with a PFC, and 30 seconds to pull 2psi. If the detonation stops, I’d be surprised if you should also see a drop in temps. End of the day it you that'll be going and spending $2500-$3000 if you go the option you are looking at, and it sounds like you’ve already made your decision given the fact you don’t want to take anything on board that anyone is saying.
  18. Talking street driven cars that go to track? Or Track only cars? Reason being track only cars will generally have far less movement due to cages, solid mounts and so on. Street cars going to the track will generally still have movement as there are no cages, solid mountings. It could even be a case of one of your engine mounts perhaps being a little more shagged than it should be + heat + more movement = warping Well it doesn't sound random at all. It sounds like it's reproduceable under circuit conditions, which if it is detonating, means you need can try some very simple things... Simple & free 1. Actually go and pull some timing. If 2-3 degrees fixes it then you have your answer 2. Drop the boost 1-2psi Simply but not free 3. Go out with 10L, mix in 10L of higher grade fuel like Martini/Elf//Sunco If any of the above sees the detonation appear then I don't think there is anymore proof needed to say the tune needs to be revisited.
  19. We usually end up going till 10-11pm as people come/go. I'm not working tomorrow so I'll give it a good few hours tonight and if people go, i'll just keep going with clan dudes, who are all 10000x better than me lol.
  20. Yep exactly what everyone has been saying. Tuning for street with the odd track vs a car that is setup for extended circuit laps (5+) are two different ball games far as I'm concerned as the heat factor is massively different. I'd also be surprised if you could maintain 10+ mins of solid trackwork with that brake setup. Surely after 2-3 flying laps the brakes need a cooldown which isn't 10mins? Could also be as stated above about airflow. If using a stock front bar you might need some more ducting. Is there a heatshield being used? Perhaps a better radiator & oil cooler to aid in sufficient cooling during hot laps & cooldowns, even a vented bonnet perhaps (although that shouldn't be needed as i could manage 5mins of flying with my GT-R before a cooldown was needed - but then there was larger cooler/radiator to complement the extra power/heat). etc etc. Lots of things to look at but by and large the factor for heat is largely in the tune. Could mean you need to drop 1-2psi and/or drop a few degrees of timing, add a bit more fuel and similar.
  21. Plenty of threads about E85 users, some of which are GT-Rs. GT-R/GTS-t = same same, so there are no "model" specific threads. Threads can be found by putting "E85" into the search
  22. Also MPH will drop a little with a lower 60ft.
  23. Added warnings. I've been lenient enough.
  24. Well 4 pages of shit talk. The day has arrived. 7:30pm AEST Add me: r31nismoid I've not thought about booking a server, just haven't had time... But there are plenty of empty ones usually so we can just join off each other easily enough.
