Yesterday,

Was laughing at a done up prelude at the lights next to me when he decided to give it. He passed me and I was laughing telling my mates that when I hit 4000rpm it'll be all over... Oh man, was I wrong! We raced upto 160km/h and I couldn't catch up to him! Is this because I'm a really bad driver, or because that car really can pull that off? I think it had a catback, mine's completely stock.

Irony is, I sold my last Prelude (GEN 4, VTec) to get a Skyline, and never dreamt that it could keep up with anything like I have now. I know stock Gts25t's are slow, but still, I would have thought I'd catch him higher up in the revs...

I think you need to read some of the threads going around here about the consequences of street racing. Not very wise doing it then admitting it on a public forum.

I fear you will be flamed serverly for this.

Good Luck!

well ill give you 2 view points...

for a street racer your an embarasment to the skyline community for even racing a VTiR in the first place , it goes to show your car is a extension of your small dick since you cant race someone worthy.

second point is that you shouldnt be racing on the road anyway. so why dont you check out this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=167164&hl=

LOL thats obvious you cant drive dude. just thought share my story. my stock skyline (only got catback) smoked my mate's prelude many many times. (full exhaust and 4-2-1 header) he pulled out at 1st gear but i catch up at 2nd gears and it was game over , that was like 1.5 years ago.. and now it has 214 rwkw@12 psi just imagine.....

anyway agreed with what others said.dont do street racing.. :D

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
