yeah auto sux but hey the car was cheap - couldn't get a manual for this price!

i have the launches going pretty good at the moment by stalling the auto but i'm not sure if this is bad to do repetidly so i keep that in the bag for when i'm racing and i don't really practise.

agreed.

histall and shift kit it.

then you can chirp too :)

Auto is the way to go if your gonna go for serious times.

I've seen a VL with a 3000 stall... off the mark at the 3000... and it lit up the whole street.

I was amazed i tell you. Never seen anything like that before!

I heard some stock gearboxes don't take to histalls to well ?

dunno what gearboxes/models they would be though.

But watch those S15's. They are mighty quick. I got done hard one night by one... and that was in MY car!!!

I'd like to correct you all, one of my previous cars was a 1991 Laser TX3 which ran a 13.0 flat, and the full time 4WD was excellent, even managed to hose a few slightly mod'd GTR's....

Just watch out if the TX3 has the 4WD badging otherwise you should beat them all....

But watch those S15's. They are mighty quick. I got done hard one night by one... and that was in MY car!!!

hehehe..yes, yes... if i get bored of the R33 i well might go about importing a jap spec-R S15 next year.. .

Even with the small amount of mods on mine, if i transferred them across (not that i could for all of them, but you know the same sorts of things)..I'd be look at 200rwkw in the s15 with plenty more to grow - and thats in a 1250kg car! I've heard 250rkw isn't out of the question with a bigger turbo and fairly stock internals... @ 1250kg! NUTZ

I wasn't gonna tel anybody...but before I pulled my engine down I got handsomly owned by a bloody turbo sigma !! My thing would have probably pulled a 13.9 down the qtr at best....I got owned by about 3 carlengths to 130 or so.....

You cant tell til you race...I cant handle losing so am building a better engine....when I find him I'm gonna paste him...

U can't import them anymore dude .... they got a few non-turbo ones in before the authorities caught on (pre 1999 models, as they weren't released here) but I believe importation in any form is no longer possible - in fact you cant even bring in anything that could be reassembled here .... they got really tough on it!

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
