how r ya guys,

i took my r32 gtr down the 1/4 mile tonite, i had 3 runs, i got no tread on the rear tyres what so ever, im running 255/40/17s

ive got 236kw at all 4s but my boost controller is f**ked, i had heaps of wheelspin and alot of 3rd gear missing in 2 of the runs

my 1st run 2nite was [email protected]/h, missed 3rd gear and wheelspin on takeoff

my 2nd run was [email protected]/h, wheelspin on takeoff

my 3rd run was [email protected]/h, missed 3rd gear and wheelspin aswell

if i fix the problems (etc.brand new tyres, get a new boost controller),

what will this car get if its a nice clean run u wrecken

the car has turbo back exhaust(hks dumpies, front pipe and cat) straight pipes all the way from turbo, it has greddy adjutable cam gears and a apexi power fc running about 14psi, everything else is stock,

please let me know guys,

cheers tony

yer f**ken 3rd gear is my wurst gear, on my 2nd run it was all good but i shifted a lil bit slower thann i normally shift but yer my tyres are like 5% on the rears so the onli choice i had wa to do a burnout before i ran, my uda 2 runs wer hopeless 13.1 and 12.9 lol, oh well evry1 said that this car can get the flat 12 with some sik tyres and like a perfect run

still man thats street rubber. pretty good in my books. i woulda been there runnin too if it wasnt for my stupid arm. i cant wait to run it.

yer u wer der wer ya, you would of seen when i f*kd up all my runs, my 1st run i missed 3rd with wheelspin, 2nd run i put it in 3rd gear abit slow but copped too much wheelspin and dat was my best run for da nite and my 3rd run i f*kd up so it wasnt that easy with the rubber bro

Personally I think you pretty much nailed it on your second run, with the reletively slow MPH your running and relatively good 1.8 60ft, I dont think you'll go much quicker than a 12.5 :w00t:

lol i copped alot of wheelspin, do u get wat im tryin 2 say here, i got a 12.5 with wheelspin, i got no tread on my tires whatsoever, i was getting 1.80 60'footers all nite, my tyre pressure on the rear was abit too low i would think, it was on 13.5psi and the fronts on 15psi so i think that made me loose my mileage i really think

guys one more thing, how do u know when u blow a clutch, today i put my car on rwd for a f*karound becoz i got the switch put in and den i done a stand still and it started over revving and now the acr doesnt move whatso ever but the car does go in gears properly, ive got an exedy heavy duty brass button clutch in it and a lightened flywheel, would yous please help me and think what it is, i let the car have like a 3hour rest and den i went back and it was da same shit and i dont really know whats going on, the clutch is just over 1000kms old and i never drive da car whatso ever, please help guys

What we are trying to say is, a 1.8 60' is not a slow start and is better than most. The best you will get for 60' is 1.7 or possibly 1.6, so maybe you have a 0.2 or 0.3 better than you got at the end of the strip

okay so what i was looking for was a flat 12 or ven a 12.1 or 12.2 i was happy, so if i put some good tread on it and give it a nice run it will get better wont it, true or not, is that good for what ive done for my mods

Unless the stars and planets align, or your car is shot from a Canon I do not think realistically you are going to go any quicker, Wheelspin or no wheelspin :rofl:

I have quickly gone thru the Timeslip registry for you and pulled out some times similar to yours.

R33 GTR - 11.8 @ 118mph (481awhp @ 20psi)

R32 GTR 11.9 @ 117mph 1.7 60ft - (390rwHP) Mine

R33 GTR 11.914 @ 114.56 MPH 1.809 60'

R32 GTR 12.3 @ 110.911 MPH 1.9sec 60ft

R32 GTR 12.348 @ 113.56mph, 60 ft 1.793sec

R32 GTR 12.547@ 106 MPH 60ft 1.8 Your time

R32 GTR 12.6 @ 109mph 1.9 60'

R32 GTR 12.68 @ 112.64mph 2.124 60ft (315rwHP) Mine

R32GTR 12.691 @ 105.6 MPH 1.969 60ft

R32 GTR 12.767 @ 105.883 MPH 1.810 60' (300rwhp)

R32 GTR 12.78 @ 110 2.079 60ft

R32GTR 13.2 @ 108 mph 2.0 sec 60ft (310ps @ all 4's)

Notice how your MPH is quite low for the ET you have ran, Notice how your 60 ft time is as good as any, now notice how your going to need another 10mph to get around the Flat 12 mark.....

Getting more MPH basically means you are going to need more HP, pumping your tyres up is not going to do stuff all.

'Copping a lot of wheelspin' in a Reletively low HP GTR like yours on a prepped drag strip IMHO should'nt and dosnt really need to Happen, I'm guessing your are either limiter launching and side stepping the clutch, or your ATTESSA system needs attention.

I achieve 1.7's and 1.8's easy enough by feeding the clutch out quickly, not dumping it, I could run Bob Jane allrounder 175/75/14's tyres on it and I dont think i'd get wheel spin...! (Then Again I am big on mechanical sympathy!)

Doing burnouts and Limiter launches can kill a clutch pretty quickly, Sounds like you may have been to hard on yours, if your cars revs are not matching your roadspeed, revs rise under load etc then your clutch is slipping as it is a direct drive :rofl:

I love that more than half of the posts contain excuses. You're a natural born drag racer if ever I saw one.

FWIW, if you nail a 1.700 60-foot time you're looking at a 12.2 with that MPH and that's it. A more than respectable time in my book and if you do it you're doing way better than most.

thanks for that guys and i got the older blitz dsbc and its not the nest boost controller, it spikes out but i bought just another unit, its the newer blitz dsbc spec r, apparentely they are very good so im just waiting to get my clutch problem fixed and den go get it done and go put a brand new set of tyres on and go back to the drag strip, but i really think i can get a 12.1 or 12.2 just what 2rismo said but i thank ps1 gts11 for the help aswell, goodluck on your cars so if i get a 12.2 pass or sumfn is that good for like street gear because every1 else said that will be fantastic but yous seem like yous no more,cheers guys

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
