I know it's not very exciting for you guys but I thought I'd post it anyhow.

I achieved a new fastest ET today at 13.330 @ 104.22mph.

That is in full street trim incl. normal tyre pressure, spare in, sub-box etc in, 3/4 tank of fuel, no fuel additives & normal street tyres (not even semi-slicks). Just set up as my normal daily driver.

For your perusal:

Very nice Andy! Soon to see 12's mate.

OK time to spill the beans Matt/Pawley!!! What is this new white 32!? Let me guess it's a 32 GTS-t with RB26 power? Regardless of what it is - how quick did Terry/JMS get it down the 1/4?

Oh & how did Ben go? (Yellow RPM Supra)

shit sorry you're right MattR - stupid me .... that timeslip was actually against MattR's current morone R32 (= plenty of wheel spin) .... my actual run against the Supra was :

13.345 @ 104.38mph

vs black (stock) TT Supra (not the RPM one)

14.622 @ 102.31mph

:P

Cmon MattR .... tell the boys what you're pretty new beast ran - I'm not gonna kiss and tell either!

Thats not boring at all nighty! very good result & worth all the effort & waiting around. 13.3 is pretty good when you consider that I ran 13.1 in Big Paul's black R34 GTR @ 106mph (car worth

$100,000+) & 13.4 @ 105 in EVO 7 (car worth $80,000+) also

both these cars are 4WD so have traction advantage.

Only a couple of tenths/mph behind them - I'd say you are onto a good thing.Keep up the good work.

C'mon MattR - where are you - tell the good people what up with your new car. Whatsisname, it's an R33 rb25det in an R32 GTSt.

AND, yesterday it pulled a **.** @ *** mph.

John,

Yeah I've already managed to piece together almost all of the details on MattR's new car :D

308rwkw @ 1.4bar (dropping to 1.2bar) TD06 RB25DET in a white R32 GTS-t with multiple fancy bits already fitted (including the 25DET & R33 g/box).

The only bit I haven't already read elsewhere on the forums is the 1X.XX @ XXXmph bit :)

The "best" way to make a R32 GTS-t seriously quick - stick an RB25DET in it. Relax everyone I'm just j/king (sort of) :)

SO you mean it has these goodies as per JMS webpage?

"250-300kw R32 GTS-T with modified RB25DET, GTR Rear, R33 G/Box, Trust TD-06 Turbo, GTR Body Kit, R33 Brakes, New OS Twin Plate Clutch, Apex Cooler etc"

Beans hav been spilt. The tension was killing me..

Dont be shy matt... what'd she run

White 32 308kw at thewheels at 1.2bar. 11.317 at 122.36mph.

The engine is a RB25det out of a 98 skyline same as the gearbox. Its got a tdo6 550cc injectors Mick made the plenum (the same as what was on his sub zero car) It has got a custom one piece tailshaft instead of the two piece. The whole rear cradle is out of a 32gtr. Its running microtech computer complete with hand controller and turbosmart boost duel boost controller.

I think I will have a big problen with traction, Ill have to run 540s all the time I think. Hope this helps. Ill have it at the morpowa dyno day

What an upgrade Matt! Well done :D

11.317 @ 122.36 is flying! I think that puts the car very close to, if not on top, in the HPI drag list for RWD over 2400cc!?

Matty Lowth ran his ~320rwkw RB30DET GTS25t a few days back. 12.3 @ 123+mph (2.3 60ft & slipping clutch) The mph on both Matt's cars is very close!

I think it is on top of the list. Ill give it a good run on the 31st and see what I can do there. The 60' was 1.670, 330' was 4.746, 660' was 7.288 @ 96.09mph, and the 1000' was 9.476.

The reaction time was a bit slow at .798. Its just a pity I wasent driving it. All my r/t's have been between .4 And .5 in my old car

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
