I just got an auto R33 GTS-T II, pretty much stock accept it growls a bit as there some mods to the exhaust or muffler... not too sure.

Anyway Ive read that manual GTS-Ts do 6.2 sec to 100 km/h. Given that autos do have a slightly bigger lag, is it safe to say that an auto will do around 6.6 to a 100 km/h?

PS I know its a 10 yo car and they dont go as hard as something thats about 4-5 yo but nevertheless.

im pretty sure the auto will do a better 0-100 time. auto's will lag but you can start at a higher rev (rev and brake till you start to spin) and still have full traction, that will give you a better take off than any manual out there. for me its at around 3000 and it isnt till past the 100 mark that a manual will beat me.

why do you think most top drag cars are quick shift? :D

I too always felt that most autos take off quicker.

So whats the best way to launch an auto? Power button on and rev past 5000 rpm on each gear?

haha dont we all. you will get shit it being n auto n all... but really, there isnt that much difference power wise and stuff so meh.

only problem i have atm is my turbz is dying lol. :) needs me a new one. sif live without boostage.

Yeah my mate just got turbo Mr2 and giving me bit of shit cos hes is manual mine is auto... i drive when its peak hour traffic (Melbourne is peak hour traffic non stop). So its great just put your foot down and it flies! ALso no need to worry about clutches or leg cramps and the fact that Im 6'4 does it make it much easier not to have to move your feet ever 2 seconds... lay down, kick back :)

hey dude is there melb cruises coming for SAU? Id love to attend one!

if you want to be attending events etc, might want to look into signing up as a vic member.

$70 initial sign up and $50 every 12 months after that to renew...the forms are in the vic section somewhere....they do a lot of members only cruises etc so being a member has its benefits...discounts at certain places also :)

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
