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

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
