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!

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
