the hardest thing about using a transbrake is getting used to not hitting the brakes when you hold it flat but its easy

just get into stage hold the button until you hit the right boost or rpm

i leave the line at 5000rpm with 10 psi boost

any questions pm me

put a boost gauge and 5" rev tacho close to ur steering wheel so u can c it straght and clear. I have 3 speed in mine. 1st u switch your transbrake solenoid on, hold the button then rev it to 5,000 or something, boost will hit 15-18psi. leave the button then you'll get "quickest launch ever". dont hold that button for too long, 5-6 sec max, other way u will cook ur trans. get a big trans cooler !, and dont press it again when you launch, your trans will go back to reverse and brake ur auto internals. autos are jsut like a tune and engine, you need correct stall size to suit ur turbo, and cam and then retune it to match everything... very hard man. You bought the best auto for drags, good luck

Love the sound of the T51R, always have and probably always will :P

As for being the quickest, I'm not sure about times but there was an R33 running a factory-capacity RB25, making 795rwhp getting around Brisbane, was built by Hardcore before they ceased operations and had NIS33 on the plates. Also, 40RCD (now TRY09) might be worth checking too, I don't know if it still runs an RB25 bottom end but last time I saw it, it was running some very decent times. It was definitely 2.5 litre when it was running mid 10's, and I'm fairly sure it was still 2.5 when it broke into the 9's too, but I don't know about now :)

Best of luck ;)

    • How many of you guys run the synchro os giken set and at what power? Do you then also use the billet plate?  How is it launching with it, any dragy times from 0-60? 60ft?
    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
