i hear what your saying Son dont worry.

but these guys know what they are talking about, and they know what the limits are of the drivetrain etc when it comes to it no matter what kind of car it is.......

for example CAPA have a black ss ute that i think has the 800hp blower on it and that is running a fully stock transmission!! and they havent had an issues at all even with 30+ dyno runs.

it comes down to what i want to do. if i decide i am gonna keep her as show and dyno queen (which im happy to do) ill be fine....

ehm, the 'fully stock bro' transmission in any recent(ish) ss is a tremec t56, basically its a tank of a gearbox, capable of handling stupendous torque loads, everything is oversized and beefed up in a t56, takes a left arm made of iron to shift though. they make rb25 transmissions look like theyre made of glass. why do you think big power drag skylines run after market gearsets or even built autos and hollingers? because the stock gear set will shit the bed when it tries (in vain) to introduce nigh on 700hp to the pavement through a set of grippy tyres...

and youve gotta remember, the load on a cars driveline on a dyno is pretty minimal, and strain is built gradually, start in second gear, slip into 4th at 60km/h, then into WOT. very easy on a driveline compared to slipping the clutch at 4000rpm on slicks.

the 5spd R34 box wont handle the power, the torque will strip off the gears quick smart or brake a shaft. dynos maybe ok, but one drag launch kiss it good bye if you have traction ? if it doesnt break the half shaft will or drive shaft...drag racing kills parts, its a $$$$ option to drag a skyline with audio gear in it

aluminum flywheels kill your low end grunt feel, I had one for 11 years. good for track days, good punch out of corners , lousy for street duty or stoplights on hills..lol add a 3 plate clutch makes it worse,, on or off only?

chro molly is a better choice .

Im not a holden freak but Im semi sure they run a Getrag 6 spd box, same as a supra TT and vette.. much much better box then the 5spd, way stronger

close, see above, tremec t56, used in dodge vipers, z06's, ss commodores, and im reasonably sure turbo falcons use them also. big heavy f**kin boxes, but nigh on unbreakable.

in the latest HPI theres an article on an R33 gtr, and i quote "with a figure of 530hp at the fours, second gear and an input shaft from an OS-Giken cross-set were smashed to pieces"

Does it say how long he was running it though? depending on who ya know and what you can do yourself sometimes its better to just replace the standard item than go all out. i know people that run turbo swifts with the special 4wd jap version box at a cost of 7k a box while some just run the standard box and replace it every 2 years when it blows from the extra power.

also you might wanna think about the amount of cash thats getting thrown up on ideas to spend, you could say do a round would tour while ya still young enough to enjoy it :P or alternatively invest it and look to retire early. or dump it on a drag car that will break parts no matter what you mod it with. at the end of the day something gonna snap sooner or later.

yeah, its pretty average, and im rather disappointed. the front pipe (from the same mob) is pretty good by the looks of it, the dump pipe however, as you can see, is pretty f**kin horrid.

Man thats pretty ugly Dave.

Good to see grey imports off the msn site, replaced by locally available http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/803971...speed-car-crash

Got a mtric tap and die set here if you want to try clean the threads out a bit Dave.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
