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 :P

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Ben: Yeah man, i think you were too busy liftin the bonnet of your beast in the pit lanes to realise i was runnin around...

I was wearing the dark blue polo shirt with www.hyperwa.com on the back..

Also guys, there's an image gallery up at http://hyperwa.com/gallery/dragwars02_s9/ so you guys can see your ride's....

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
