I had such an adrenilin rush last night....tset of traffic lights a VX HSV,celica turbo & XR6 turbo pulled up beside me :wub: not sure if the HSV was worked or not it was louder then standard but the xr6 was really beefy you could her the spoolin really loudly and it sounded like it was a big v8 when he steped on it. I only have a stock r32 gtst .

We had a series of runs and each time i kept up with both these cars up until about 100km p/h then they pulled away bout a car length, the celica was nowhere to be found.

Does this sound about right for my stock GTST or should i feel proud they didnt walk all over me

your comments please.. :D

I'm waiting for the street racing lectures to start..

No need to be smart about it. Bragging about your "wins" at the lights is silly. It is detrimental to the SAU comuunity too. Makes the rest of us look like immature boy racers.

are you sure they weren't just drving home?

must have been a pretty special place as off the top of my head i can only think of about 3 or 4 four lane roads each way with trafffic lights.

We wish we could be as cool as you......... :D

:P

i doubt that they were racing you mate. i have driven all sorts of cars in my job and i am telling you now they were not trying or just absolute retards. an xrt or clubby would absolutly chew a stock 32.

the celica on the otherhand is another story!!!

Thats what I meant... I'm not one to give said lectures, but know better than to post about it on here... ah well.. :lol:

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
