a buddy of mine from newcastle went to wsid last night to run his r32 gtr, only having done 4 passes on the track in this car he managed a 10.8et at 123 mph.

first pass of the night was a 10.9 at 124 he said it wheel spun bad of the line and sixty footed in the high 1.6 region.

nest pass just did a launch and cruised through

next pass launched well and decided to stay into it and run the 10.8 with a high 1.5 sixty foot.

i am not sure of the spec of the car, as speaking skyline is like trying to speak spanish for me.

it has low mount turbos of some description, all factory cooler plumbing, its a built engine standard gearbox good clutch and he used TWOOGLEs tyres for last night.

he has been booted till he gets all the safety gear. so it will be a while till the time improves.

i think there is more left in it as he reports only 21 psi was used. not sure on fuel type but i know theres no gas yet.

Yup he was afew cars infront of me last nite, that's 1 tough looking and sounding GTR.

From memory it made 415rwkw on the dyno wednesday morning and it's a 2.7L with unknown turbo's and a twin plate clutch.

I believe he has done more than 4 runs, actually he did 4 runs last nite and atleast 4 runs on another meeting I seen him at.

it made 415 kw on hills dyno, i sent him a message back saying take 30% off and the figure will be about right and the MPH backs that up some what.

all the cars i have heard about coming of hills dyno with these big figures have not been able to replicate it elsewhere or on the track with MPH.

Glens, happy with the result and feels there is more there with more driving and playing with tyre pressures.

i think theres a 10.6 in the car when fully sorted.

Awesome work on the 10.8, very efficient et for the mph well done

I think one of the GTR's from up there parked next to me aswell last time I was racing which made me move my car hahaha as I had a mate and my wife and kids coming in 2 other cars and was trying to keep each side clear for them to park next to me sorry if it seemed rude :wave:

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
