Well the good news is i've fixed my gearstick issue (genuine toyota parts :P) it prob needs a 500-1000km run to bed in properly but meh a nite at the drags should be just as good.

The bad news is.... i'm all out of excuses.... it's just me and machine now! So providing my visa card decides to start working again i'll be there just after 5pm

;)

Seems I don't even need to post my times :P

Did a 13.0 @ 112.9mph (1.79sec) still with gear problems. The clutch appears to be engaging even with my pedal on the floor (car is creeping forward at the lights, had to use my handbrake to try and hold it back). I'll try and get that looked at b4 next wed and head back out there again.

Still though, I did a new pb for 60ft, ET, TS so i'll be back again shortly :D

Hey Ben i was there watching you, i was with some people in the stand taking a break when you started and they were like hehehe he's missed a gear! but silently i knew you had troubles.

I was happy with my outing though, a 14.1 at 97mph stock except exhaust!

ben, it sounds like you have a hydraulic problem (possibly slave cylinder). I had a smiliar thing on the GTR. just enough of a slight leak so that it wouldn't push the fork far enough to completely disengage the clutch, which meant creeping, and difficult gear slection. a new slave is only about $70 from nissan and you can change it youself in about 10 mins. if you are skinny you can probably even do it without jacking up the car (needless to say, i had to jack it up!).

Yes it certainly has an issue, hydraulic or whatever i'm not sure but i'll be getting it looked at sometime hopefully before next wednesday so I can get back out there again.

I'm not resting until I see 11's :P

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
