Aristo equal gangstaaaa...

I would love nothing more then to see that celsior manji down the back straight at QR!

You have no idea how much I hate myself for spending $2700 on the auto, when I could have made mine manual for a touch more.

:spank:

Andy wants this!

I can see us now, fanging down Ipswich road in her :sick:

Yep, cheap to drive the 80 somthing kays to work every day and it can fit stuff in it! I hate having two cars both of wich cant fit anything in!

Pity its got a sludgamatic

I think the toyota autos have a PFC that controls the functions of the auto so you can make them pretty nice! Well Iknow you can on the chaser anyway, So I am assuming these are the same

Problem with most of the “better” factory Toyota autos is, they have electronically controlled valves, you can almost do nothing to them in the way of shit kits ect to get them changing quick

I went through this drama with my car. My only option was to ditch the auto part of the ecu, thus creating a manualized auto, so I could then play with the guts.

How ever, didn’t choose this as streetabilty is rubbish, and my car is big and slow.

sooo how are the evo's 'soo' much quicker than a gtr? (and no im not being smart)

Better response and torque (Yep it is a 4 and yep it has more torque) and a 4wd system that works and far better brakes

Funny story, Snowman was at wakie driving Jamezillas evo, he warped his brakes and was getting bad shudder, so snowie decided not to use brakes except for the turn after the straight and just throw it in...It went round with no fuss and lapped a 1:12 stock the quickest car of the dat ran 1:08 wich was a GTR on full slicks with 350awkw

Hmmm thats no good

Do not assume anything buntz Do not assume!!!@!#

when you assume, you make an ass out of u & me :spank:

sif. you're always trying to win at something.

Fact is there not. If you pit an r34 gtr vs same age evo there quite similar.

Yeah but of the similarness wich one wins?

In one of the battles I saw the R34GTR started at the front of the gris and the EVO at the back, after 3 laps the evo was all over the R34 but Gansan was rude an wouldnt let him past...in that time the EVO managed a lap that was 1.5 seconds faster than the GTR, and the GTRs front tyres were gooooone and he would not have lasted another lap

In the end they are pretty similar but the evo is cheaper and easier for the average Joe to set a decent time in (wich is what I am)

That's gonna hurt a few evo lovers :huh:

cheers zaff ;)

:laugh: I don't think andy's hurt... andy likes to base his opinions on example, not what the factory specs show him. He is one of the very few people I admire in the car 'scene'. And not because he is my bf. Because he is more than happy to admit that his car is not the be all and end all of the motoring industry. He's happy to admit he is not the best driver, and he's happy to bow down and let others take the limelight when they deserve it.

On the other hand, he's also happy to show you, young padawan, how a gtst can flog a m0nst0r gee tee are! :P

and jeebus andrew! How much f**king nurofen plus do you need!!! I have just cleaned the house, and have managed to find the equivalent of 6 1/2 boxes, lying around, in different places!

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
