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=

Hey man .. prob not best to road race hey.. up to speed limit doesnt phase me but you breach the speed limit and its not a kewl thing..

not everyone is a saint .. but im just saying tthats how people die.

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

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
