Drags are on tomorrow night.

What do y'all think I'll get with a 2-2.3 sec 60ft?

Car is R32 GTR (in rwd)

340rwhp

275 Kuhmo tyres around my 19s...

OS triple plate clutch

I'm hoping for somewhere around the 13 flat mark as I haven't had the car that long yet and I'm not the fastest gear changer...

Any input on how to launch rwd cars etc?

12.48 if u run it in 4wd :D thats my guess 275's great traction trip plate clutch= negative on the clutch slip if uve got 4wd use it bud and u will clean up :P

Depends if you can keep it boosting chris.

All that lag is eating up the time. thats why you should downgrade that turbo or make some more power with it so that when it does hit its worthwhile :)

Trading off that much response for 240rwkw isnt really worth it. Get it retuned to run the boost it should be! 25psi! lol

You better be doing quicker then what my 165kw commodore did in RWD this time chris! hahahaha

actually it was a semi-final >_<

i like no.11 too "had too much grip"

and no.14 "had too much power"

Final as in quarter-final, semi-final or final. I would never credit you with making a final round anywhere mate. That's what your missus is for. :(

haha.

Well its in rwd because the 4wd is broken. Something wrong with the oil control switch...

Yeah grant, it'll run better than your commie. And when you learn how to tune my power fc for free instead of me having to drive 8 hours i'll get it tuned! :D

Nah, next brissy trip i reckon ill get it tuned for around 18psi.. depends how the injectors go. they're at 90% now but its also ridiculously rich.

Couldn't get the power down AT ALL>

Worst 60ft times you would have ever seen lol. Got in a few runs, but just couldn't work out the best way to launch with this clutch.

I think my best run was 14.7 at 107mph with 2.843...

Other runs:

14.7 at 108mph with a 2.874 60ft

14.9 at 106mph with 2.83 60ft

16.5 at 103mph with 3.06 60ft

15.4 at 104mph with 2.92 60ft

15.1 at 106mph with 2.96 60ft

15.2 at 102mph with 2.75 60ft

20.6 at 45mph...missed 3rd lol. still only had a 3sec 60ft though.

Any ideas on the best way to launch with this type of clutch?

Next time I will soften the rear coilovers as much as I can... Don't want to have to buy slicks as I like it to be full street times, but I might.

275's great traction

Forgot to mention, although its obvious... 275s did absolutely nothing. I ran better times on half the boost with 245s. Kuhmo Ecsta are not a great tyre at all. Couldn't even get traction in 2nd gear.

go back! u can do better! lol

LOL. I'm determined to get a good time in rwd now. Any good ways to launch other than riding the clutch?? Someone on here has got to have similar or more power and run on street tyres.......

I think you meant 14 sec GTR.....................

No, it's not slow. You should know that after driving it to and from last night. Just a bit slippery at the start line. Reeled in that commonwhore last night pretty easy!

    • sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving. 
    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
