166kmh

[Guest KILLER-T]

166 kmh will get you into the 13's easy so there you go your car is not a piece of ****

[adam 32]

but running 8psi!!! its not enough power:D

i wonah boost it to 12psi and get a new fuel pump, then well try again!

[rob77]

Well I didnt have much luck. With the warmer weather and the stock intercooler I couldnt run 0.8bar of boost effectively. My fastest run of the day netted me the same result from my last day at the drags another 14.8 with the boost turned down to 0.6bar. Time to browse the Trust catalogue for a better intercooler and some sort of new engine management I think. The car was launching much better with the lock kit though, its a bit annoying though as I know the car is quicker because at night when its much colder at 0.8bar the car pulls strongly to 6500rpm, today with 0.8bar I had to keep shifting between 5500 and 6000rpm because the power was tailing off... damn heat! Either that or my car's a lemon

I know what you're thinking, and no, its not Myaree Dyno

Got it tuned at Barrys Dyno.

adam 32, no need to prove anything, the terminal speed shows the true potential of the car. Besides, 12psi will make you harder to catch at the next cruise

rob77, the factory tune on the r33 ecu is junk. Put fuel control at the top of your list, you won't be sorry.

[skyzerr33]

Rhino did well with nearly braking into the 12's

and that nitro vs ss ute was kewl to watch all over the road.

i think big adam needs to turn the boost up more than 15psi

i got 30 odd pics

dump pipe and night runs and i'm there next time

[rob77]

Yup, black r33 stock rims and body, nice 3.25" cat back system with the muffler on a angle and a tip big enough to stick your head in The only other mods are a blitz air filter element, apexi twin chamber bov (which I'm thinking of ditching cos I think its causing my problems), blitz dual sbc type s boost controller. I was hoping on at least a low 14, possibly a high 13, but the gremlins re-appeared. My terminal speed was 96.05mph or 154.57kmh at 0.6bar, so with a stronger clutch and harder launch, I dont see why I cant run a low 14 at least.

Rob

[adam 32]

0.6bar = 8psi

you should be able to run 10psi through the std intercooler no worries

[gtrken]

OK, what's the quickest WA 1/4 mile time for a Skyline of any type??

Has need4speed or Techone run a 1/4 mile time yet.

Adam32 read my post, I run 0.8bar of boost and it's fine at night, the car pulls hard all the way to the 7200rpm limiter, but for some reason today be it heatsoak or something else is ****ed in the car, it was loosing power if I went past 5500rpm. I'm sure if I went out now and took it for a drive, it'd pull fine to 7200rpm. *shrug* beats me, everytime I go to the drags something ****s up.

Rob

[adam 32]

yeh i understand that happens at 0.8bar which is around 12psi but why not find some middle ground ie 10psi cos at that boost the car would have run fine and you could have run a better time....

maybe just have to wait for wednesday nights to come back!

[rob77]

Yeah, well I didnt tune the boost controller. Anyway, a larger front mount cooler will fix the problem and a new ecu wont hurt either.

So I take it the blitz element is in a stock unmodified airbox? Or have you hacked the airbox to include a cold air intake?

The stock airbox is an unbelievably huge restriction in R33 GTS25ts, the GTR design is much better.

[Pva_Glue]

damm I think I missed out on the Fun day of the year!!!...

sorry guys I could not be there... I would love to see all of you again and the cars...

I was pre occupied with something else...

[Guest Rhino]

Only did 6 runs as I was stupidly consistant, here they are in order:

13.989 @ 167.24

13.112 @ 163.47

13.038 @ 168.41

13.080 @ 164.95

13.073 @ 161.64

13.093 @ 168.41

As Troy said today there was a bee's dick to a 12 for me today, I wont be going back until I get a new clutch and make sure I dont have 50L of fuel onboard like I did today...........and maybe flogg some race rubber off Ken??? pretty please??

Cheers.

[Guest Rhino]

Ohh yeah lets get them photos coming too

And I think one of Mackas mates took some video footage? I'd really like to have a closer look at my runs from 'outside' the car.
