To be honest I don't know - I've only been to PI in the R34 once.. the lap time wasn't anything great since I was on street tyres, and it was well before i made a few significant power/handling upgrades :) more just for fun than anything else. I took my old 200sx to PI a few times before, but I'm super keen to get out there with the R34 again and try out my new setup B)

I heard what times you were running jack. I'm very impressed... Having the car capable of it is one side, the other side is the balls, and looks like you found yours! :P

Now if i can only find mine *continues searching* :(

Yeah thanks Andrew, I think once u are comfortable and have confidence in the car, u can take most corners with great speed without fear of sliding off, especially with brand new RE55's....

I reckon I could still improve on that, we'll see next month, round 2 is at PI....

Oh com eon. Dont tease, what times Jack?  The new turbos feel as good on the track as they do the street?  :)

Well, let's just say I did an unofficial 1:50, as the last session of the day was not 'officially' timed for some reason.... Crazy Frank and Steve (Black 550 Maranello) hand timed me in the last session with a best of 1:50.06. On the piarc site I registered a 1:52 in the second last session.... Last time I was at PI my best was a 1:58.....

Going to try and dip into the 49's next month..

Roy, turbos feel awesome, so much torque down low and response is second to none compared to old setup.....

Nice one Jack...awesome time at PI :)

Come on Matt don't be ashamed to post your times mate, you can't expect to set the world on fire the first time you're out there.... :)

To everyone racing at Calder this weekend, best of luck and show those pesky rexs what real power can do :)

hey Jack,

what turbo's are you running now?? no more t517z's??

Dane

Hey Dane,

T517's are gone. replaced with GT2560R's, similar to 2530's but more response and spool up quicker, they lack the top end of the T517's but I can live with that, so much nicer to drive.....

Yeah Matt, what times??????????????

    • So I’m having issues with my power steering. the obvious heavy and light and comes on and off randomly now it’s constantly heavy. I’ve read through forums regarding this issue and what I’ve gather is that it’s referring to hicas deletion. That’s the problem mine didn’t come with hicas.    I’ve rebuilt the steering rack, pump, changed the bent hardline on the rack and taken out the solenoid to clean and loosen up the actuator, applied 12v to get it moving. Roughly checked the loom to see if there’s any damage to the loom and nothing. Now I’m checking the wiring. I’ve tested the wiring to the solenoid and it’s fluctuating between 0.07v to 0.03v. Does anyone know what it’s supposed to be reading? 5v? Anyone one know how this all works? Is there a fuse in between? What else is it connected to? How does it connect to the speed sensor? A resistor fried in the ecu? Please help. It’s been years Thanks in advance 
    • that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.
    • Found a car that has kiki desing wheels on it with diffrent plates that match a 2008 model when clearly it's not white  
    • Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench
