Dont have any photos. I think i have some photos of my first Renault back in the 70s. Not even a photo of my old Brabus.

Reading through peoples comments, it appears my car may only be as quick as my old Brabus, but it feels quicker.

Hi guys, here are the results.

Please note: TBA results are still being looked at. The competition was very close in the TBA items so its going to come down to 100'ths of a second i think.

I'd prefer to give it full time to calculate and get it right, rather than post a false result.

Im flat knacker @ work so it should only be a couple more days ;)

cheers

First and foremost was the results, the timings and stuff are secondary.

dunno why my MPH was so high

neither do i... but cant argue as ALL your times were like that.

However one WRX ran mid 120mph, but he told me that couldnt be right as the car had never gotten over 110mph or something close to it.

I'll be having a word to Heathcote about thier timing as im a bit intrigued as to how accurate it is, or rather it is not.

I've had isues before, thre is no way i ran a 12.1 with 111mph, would have to be closer to 120mph+

Ill see what they come back with :rofl:

That sounds about right dude. I ran my GTR on the weekend at Heathcote and ran a 12.8 @ 106mph.

My mates R32 GTR on one of his runs did a 13.3 @120mph (now thats a stuff up - that was the right side)

But Ash has a Rwd R31, would have to have a wicked fast 60ft time for that....

A 12.6-12.8 qtr will be done with a 106-109mph quite easily in a awd car with a 60 ft of around 1.7sec. This my experiance anyway with Evo's, Wrx's, Liberty's and GTR's.

It seems with GTR's once you get in to 11 sec teritory a good 60ft is hard to get, due to the fine line of wheel spin and bogging down.

That's my 2 cents worth anyway :D

My 60ft was a 1.86 (standard tyres - wheel spin). Your info is about spot on :D

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      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
