hahaha nice one mines made of plastic with nissan stamped on the underneath side

:D If I was you I'd change to a genuine one aswell the fibreglass ones don't fit as nice :P

Couldn't have said it better myself. Now...where is morgs...a run with the two of us could be great to watch.

Forget morgs, a few of us are racing on the 14th of April why don't you come and show me how superior your GTR is

haha...my OEM plastic one fits my genuine GTR just fine. But, if I were to fit it to a GTST, it wouldn't fit quite as well because it would stick out too far on either side for the skinny rear guards. :P

I may come down on the 14th, not out to prove anything...unless you choose to run on real street tyres, with real street fuel, a cat and a quiet exhaust? Maybe you can run a manual too...or have you forgotten how to change gears??

Seriously though, will be great to see you run again, so may come down either way.

if anyone is after an accurate power figure they are best to go to WSID and go by MPH or put their engine on an engine dyno... a chassis dyno is really only a tuning tool which has way to many variables that can affect the readout.... just losely strapping a car has yealded an extra 30rwkw, changing wheels has made near the same so i wouldnt be to stressed by differing read outs

A great day none the less and was great to catch up with quite a few people. Cant wait for the next event :P

So how do i tell how much my line is putting out? i did a 14.1 at 97mph. before i tell you how much i got on the dyno see if you can get near it.

Not sure...never bothered reading the thing...but it is a street meet and I have a street car...are you driving yours there?:P

You and your old man sure seem to be friggin' experts on drag racing for a pair that have "...never bothered reading the thing". :D

Or has he read it and you take what he says as gospel? :D

It was a great day thanks Adam and everyone else :D It was the first time i've had my car on the dyno which i was planning to do and run it at WSID to see what she runs. Now that i've done that and have my base figures i'm gonna start playing with it. Mona watch out cause i'm coming to the 12's with you then the fun begins. Mik i love your car! Awesome display of rb power!!!

Lizjane sorry i beat you but i think it's great to have girls like you, Mona And Elbee111 in the club and into their cars as much as us mear males.

Met some more of you great people and hope some more days like saturday comes up to meet more of you :P

Which book are we talking about not reading?

Thanks for the pics E Lu-Shun !!

Adam, do I contact you to pick up the turbosmart oil cap? :P

The book of 101 excuses for GTR drivers

Here's the top 5

1. My clutch is slipping

2. My gearbox will break

3. My transfer case is slipping

4. My car weighs to much

5. I still have stock airbox

etc etc

:D :D :D

Mik, you need to buy the book - real, REAL bad!

Adrian

Nah...I've never bought a book in my life...no time to start now.

Oh...and I'm no drag racing expert. Sure, I've had a few runs, but it's only for the fun of it and to see what the car can do.

If I was into drag racing, I would not have a turbo manual 4wd full weight street car. I would build a lightened rwd N/A auto with drag slicks. Drag racing is all about consistency, and that's the best way to get it.

maybe Bu5ter should write a book entitled "101 setps to making your GTS look like a GTR" :P

"You'll need to run 11's, low 11's to qualify today"

Sounds pretty experienced to me. What was the bump-spot that day? 12.67 if I recall correctly. :cool:

People that talk it up that much AREN'T only in it for the fun of it. They're there to show-boat and enter their own private dick-swinging contest. Just so you know, the most consistent vehicles in drag racing are manuals.

:P

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
