Hey,

Just wonder how many other r32 GTR owners reguarily do 6500rpm+ launches, second gearies ect in their GTR?

mines got a twin plate and oil cooler ect, when i drive it like that it feels fine, as if it can handle being driven like that (plus its fun), where as in my other cars driving them in this manner felt like it was going to break stuff

the only thing i havent been game to try is 4wd doughies

so does every baby them around or what?

hahah i think the launches are hardest on the clutch... doesn't do much to the engine. tracking it puts the engine through its paces more, and there is no way you are going to make an engine work as hard on the street as you would on the track :)

i'm not sure what 'second gearies' are?

4wd doughies.. haha i tried that on a wet skidpan, just sits there and pivots, kinda fun.

i'm not sure what 'second gearies' are?

when you get the wheels to chirp for a second or 2 when you change from first to second going flat out

i find that it can still bog down sometimes around 6000rpm, but anywhere above seems to be the sweet spot for launches in my car, no bog down, lays a bit of rubber for about 5m or so too. i wouldnt try it too often if you dont have a very strong clutch. ive done about 30 so far without any problems

also i "hear" that gtr's can rip pretty nice burnout in rwd (with no use of the brakes)

Got a triple plate in mine and it's still great launch after launch.

Did a 4 wheel doughnut burnount once and it is pretty specy. All everyone sees at night is lots of white smoke coming off all the wheels and headlights going round and round!!

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
