Hopw the hell do you do it?

I don't care if youc all me a noob etc, but i don't know.

I'm not talking about leaving 11's on the ashphalt.

I'm talking about how you keep the rear wheels spinning whilst stationary.

Thanks.

OK, so basically...

On the strip, depending on whether your car is auto or manual...

Auto - One foor firm on the break and then other on the accelerator (try not to rev car above 4000rpm)

Manual - Dump Clutch to get wheels spinning, then begin to apply the break

On the street - Drive like a normal road user!!! save tyre shreading for the track....

none of this hoon behaviour shit as it gives Skylines a bad name!

Another way you can do it is hold the brake on with ur right foot then use your heel of your right foot to work the accelerator. Have the car in like first gear and hold some revs with your right heel then let the clutch out reasonably quick.

Use more or less brake with your right foot so that you hold the car still but not so much brake that you stall the motor.

Yeah but as above you are best keeping that to the track.

Na you dont use handbrake. Your skyline is RWD unless a GTR so you only want the front brake on to hold the car still. There is a thing you can buy called a line locker which connects up with the brake lines to stop pressure getting to the rear brakes so when u put you foot on the brake only the front brakes will work.

This is however not legal on street cars.

Ideally you want no braking on the back wheels so that you can do stoppies easyier.

the easiest way is the heel/toe trick.

just keep it at about 5000rpm. if you are running streety tyres there is no need to do a big smoke burnout. just enough to get the water off is all. if you are running slicks then you need to get heat into them so a bigger burnout is better. that is where changing into second helps. you get the tyres spinning faster which creates more heat.

the handbrake only works the rear wheels so there is no point using it for the burnout. you can use it to load the motor up on the start line though if you are in a manual.

i wouldn't try starting in second unless you have a good clutch or crap tyres.

well thats what i did for several minutes on a skid pan and looked back over the vidoe and it sounded like a noob who was just burrying the pedal...

at the drags u dont want to be bouncing off the limiter......its got noob written all over it......i know cause i used to do it....

Thanks mate.

And i don't do it on the street.

To be honest, i need to learn how to drive the car before i even start trying to act like i know how to drive.

The reference up there was just so you guys know what i meant :laughing-smiley-014:

Now i can afford it, i'll stick to the tracks and skidpans to be a HOON :)

dump 2nd gear, hit the brakes sit on 7,000rpm and shoot flames :).. thats if i do one that is :P

or if u wana look cool dump 1st play with it a bit, hit 2nd and limo for around 50m :D

If you are in the wetbox its quite easy. No need to dump the clutch then reach for the brake pedal. Just heel and toe your loud and brake pedal, Lightly on the brake is all you need, second gear, a enough revs to be around boost and slip the clutch. If your diff works well you wont go left or right so concentrate primarily on your tacho. Just float the revs below the limiter till you feel the tyres start to bite. You are now good to go.

Dont snap your foot off the throttle, ease it off whilst taking your foot from the brake. Easier on the car that way.

    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
