Ran it tonight..went well only ran it on low boost (21psi) to "shake it down"

I finally reached my 20th run tonight so still very much a novice.

So here's what happened...

1st pass 1.60 60' short shifted all gears and ran 10.7 @ 130 MPH

2nd pass 1.49 60' gave it a bit more in each gear and ran 10.4 @ 134 MPH

3rd pass got hassled at the start line about only having 1 arm restraint and forgot to switch it back into 4WD (this was my last run as they would not allow another pass without both arm restraints fitted). Launched it off the limiter and lit it up spinning the rears (2WD) past 60' (1.90). But really put the foot down in 3rd and went through the traps for a new MPH PB of 137 MPH. Across the line both belts (power steering and alternator) came off and tore a huge hole in my top radiator hose. Thus ending the fun for the night.

When its fully tuned with full boost and a driver with a bit more experience this things gonna be awesome.

The car now weighs 3030lbs or 1375kg...but, im still over 100kg.

Congratulations, sounds like its going to be a winner!

RH9 club?

Thats the idea...9's on radials.

no one's done it B4 on low mounts...let alone with synchro box and a Power FC.

We still are yet to connect the Nitrous set-up as well.

Im very happy with the progress so far.

Very nice!!!!

Who said the power fc is a crappy computer ? :thumbsup: are you running AFM's ? or map sensor version?

Hope you crack the 9's without the cheating gas.. Will be very impressive when you do.

some data on the 10.4 run...the g-tech was not calibrated correctly so the ET's a little off (0.2secs) but the MPH was spot on

med_gallery_23582_772_49076.jpg

as you can see above, the shift point was set to 9000rpm...i didn't see or activate the shift light for the middle of the run and shifted 1-2 at 8400rpm and 2-3 at 8600rpm

EDIT: just replay'd the run and the shift light only came on going across the line (top of 3rd)

the graph below is speed vs time

med_gallery_23582_772_89277.jpg

the car does not accelerate for 0.4secs on the 1-2 change and 0.5 on the 2-3 change, much improvement is to be had there. Very lazy changes and need to rev the car a little harder through the gears.

EDIT: be kind with your comments 2rismo

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.

      Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.

      Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!

      Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
