Sooooo quick over our private test course ;) it's an awesome car Will, Michael is extremely happy. Was funny coming home after the mountains watching the speedo sitting on 0kmp/h :laughing-smiley-014: gets to 180, then back around to zero rather quick

awesome! :) those tyres made huge difference to the car now..

glad he put it to good use and blow the cobwebs out of engine :)

0 to the other side of 0 is lotsa fun :) the speedo is funny too.. it jumps around every now and then I think :)

0 to 180 to 0 is nothing.. 0 to the other side of 0 is more fun :)

we could only 0 to 0 at 7000rpm in 5th gear then ran outta road :) Need to find a better/longer road to 0 to 0 off the limiter ;) Those tires are monsters, so much entry speed and even more exit speed! Just hugs in and bites like a mofo and leaps forward.

Flames FTW

I was seriously thinking the car had gone slower as it doesn't spin or flick out the rear as often with those tyres :)

might have to get a set for my other cars too now :)

      By Black_CSR · Posted

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
