im kinda sceptical on ur time, as nos generally removes 2 seconds

i think i saved the replay no nos fitted at all to the car.

with nos you should be able to take off more than

2 seconds on such a large track

*edit, typo*

I did the ring in 5:45 something in the R32 GTR Calsonic... Fully worked with nos and a long 5th. No spins, and a generally good clean run. I had holidays for 4 weeks :)

Got a split?

...and maybe post a pic of the screen for these 'ultra' fast times :dry:

'97 R33 GTR Vspec

8:37.421

Stock w/ sports med tyres

Slides more than the 32 i reckon so i think i could better my R32 time easy.

BTW im only doing 2 laps with each car as it not the shortest track in the game lol. first is to get the feel of the track with the car and then i see if i can beat that one.

thats exactly what I do, you need to set a time and a ghost car to beat :D

'99 R34 GTR Vspec

8:24.817

Stock w/ sports med tyres

i rate the r34 :ermm: definetly holds the road better than the r33. plus it was red so it gained an unfair advantage with speed :sick:

might do a 350z next or the gtr proto? dunno...

Modified Mines R34 GTR

6:54.775

i could get quicker i reckon with changing the gears and suspension as it topped out at 348kmh on the straight and slid like a mule round some corners...

    • You're not wrong but 5W30 at 100C is like 10 cSt vs 25 cSt for 10W60. If we think in terms of viscosity margin 10W60 will probably still be ok at 130C but 5W30 is probably too little. It's absolutely shocking how hot the oil gets in something like a stock FL5 from only ~3 minutes of use on the Nordschleife. I would not risk taking a car like that to anything remotely intense without a ton of work done for cooling. Heat shielding on the manifold/turbo/downpipe, oil coolers, etc. 
    • I think the concept is highlighting the various scenarios where thicker oil helps, and thicker oil potentially doesn't help and only generates heat and costs power, in turn for safety which isn't actually any safer (unless you're going real hot). If anything this does highlight why throwing Castrol 10w-60 for your track days is always a solid, safe bet. 
    • Jason should have shown a real viscosity vs temp chart. All the grades have very little viscosity difference at full operating temperature.
    • Oops... I meant to include the connector  view... BR/W - power from fuse L/W - motor negative to fan control amp (and off to HVAC pin19) OR/B - PWM signal (from HVAC pin20) B --  ground  
    • Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me.
