I assume you mean the turbo models, IIRC the factory reckons 14.5, even at this age as long as the clutch isn't slipping or something they should still be able to easily do a high 14.

He might be thinking of NA times though by the sound of it

Stock (real stock not, boost, cooler and exhaust stock :)) will run in the mid 15s these days. Also at a test and tune reaction time doesnt count towards your final time you could sit at the line for 10 seconds and still run the same time as the clock doesnt start till you trip the beam, reaction time is for your info only if you are intent on practicing competition starts

14.7 was the quoted factory time I think Marc....and our shit fuel (makes it run on low octane map) and general age is easily making them the best part of a second worse! There is always the odd exception though

Ok. John's isnt stock after all... hahaha.

Oh yea. Makes sense. Sorry for that misleading info. So doesnt matter if I'm slow in reaction comparing to the others. :)

You've been coming out with some doozies over the last couple of days Brandon.

Question revhead? Is there a reason our thread got locked and the Sunny Coast Chat Post has not been closed? They're both very similar so their thread should probably be merged in here as well don't you think?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
