I dont think you guy r getting my Point. Lets say u got a stock skyline which everyone else can run 13.5second. and you can only get 14.2second so u install the nos to brake it into the 13second where it should be STOCK

Basicly you are a shit driver and can run wat the stock car should run.

(numbers made up dont know wat skyline run stcok :bahaha: )

WTF is your point. I so are you saying that skylines are slow, or that these guys are shit drivers....... i dont understand.

What shits me is retards who never race their car but have the ordacity to comment and belittle other peoples efforts.

Dan - I'm with you here.. there's little or no chance of normal drivers, hell - even good drivers, getting their car down the 1/4 at "stock" times because they are often just claimed figures by the manufacturer, calculated from the power and gearing.

If you haven't tried it - you won't know....

Now _I_ take offence to that! (back me up here guys, I'm NOT a shit driver)

My last official 1/4mi. slip is for 14.5 sec (general rule of thumb is 14.2 STOCK), things like stock clutch, 10psi spiking boost, aftermarket (read: heavier) rims, different suspension DO make a difference.

So to compensate for this i've further modded the car to hopefully crack a 13.... well then, does me modding the car to get just under a stock timeslip mean I'm crap?

Sod off.:shake:

LOOK I WASNT CALL YOU GUY SHIT DRIVERS I MADE THOSE TIMES UP! wat i am tring to say is lets say CAR : A has a stock 1/4mile time of 13.5 but everyone with a stock CAR : A runs from 14 to 14.3 and let say you happen to have the same car and can only get it to run at best 14.9 cuz of watever reason so u install the NOS to get it closer to the time every other stock driver get there car running at.

Stock Car A Time: 13.5

Owners Time: 14 to 14.2 (wat every owner gets)

Drive R Time: 14.9

Get wat im tring to say now??

I wasnt saying skyline run 13 or 14 those numbers where made up. You guy all took it the wrong way. I dont think any of you guy run ricer here, u dont see many ricer skyline more 180, lancer ect

Soulja,

The problem with stock quoted 1/4 figures is that more often than not they are not based on a real 1/4 mile race track.

Owners of various cars can take some comfort if they are getting the mph even if they aren't achieving the times, due to setup considerations.

If modifications are performed to a vehicle to achieve greater speed then we can't categorise them as 'rice'. Rice by it's nature implies the 'go fast' without the fast reality.

Like gluing a letterbox scoop to the top of your stock datsun 120Y's bonnet.

I live in the alexander Hts area and cant find anything fast, but a 911 (i think it is but it is never around)

Im not looking for a race as my car is stock, i just wanna know if there are any fast cars out there

Thats what im talking about:tool:

my thoughts are that if YOU like it then its not Rice- Rice is in the eye of the beholder . Seems to me Rice is entirly dependant on whos or the type of car it is attached to rather than what it is: eg A huge wing on a silvia got Rice comments at one Skyline cruise and these came from someone that had a similiar Wing attached to a Skyline.  

So i for one support peoples right to individualise thier cars as they seem if - some things may not suit everyone but hey if the owner likes it then its not Rice to the owner.

As for inporting parts -------carbon fibre bonnet for a Supra $$$ let me know

just for those that missed my first cast of the bait --- oh they are running now

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
