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!!

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
