C'mon Miss niz, come for a run in the 34. I'ts heaps of fun, my car is only doing 14's so not that great. Still i loved it.

Haha, yeah i ran my ol' bluey down the strip a few years ago, but i won't be running the 34. She's just built for cruising, not racing... lol.

bah, i am in adelaide for that week.

ahh well. another time.

Depending on how the night goes, and we get a decent amount of people out. I would be happy do it again.

Had a couple of hickups with my car, but should still be going down the track. If not i will definately be there watching.

I probably will be taking footage on the night aswell, and would like to know how to upload it onto here, but unaware how to.

Im really keen to head up once i get my rims and rubber sent up from melb. Should be interesting to see how it goes with the gt30r and a decent set of drag radials under it. May not be able to make it for the next few weeks tho. I have a few exams coming up.

everthing seems to be looking well for wednesday night, although it was a bit windy today.

by the look of the weather it probably wont piss down, very unlucky if it does.

looking forward to see who rocks up on the night.

My car looks like it should be right for the night. But have had issues with those silicon performance radiator hoses i put on, just dont seem to seal properly.

Yeah they can withstand the heat but pain in the arse to secure so they dont leak. Also had air leaks coming out a couple of places, but now all sorted.

Just letting people know, that im planning on rocking up to test and tune close to when it opens, to get some runs down, then see some skylines head down the track later that night.

There has been a bit of interest and a couple of people are missin out on the night, due to cars not being ready, awaiting parts to be put on, or wont be here.

So if people would like to show some interest if we want to do another one, let us know and i'll arrange another one soon. ( But as said before we will see how this night goes, and get peoples opinions etc. after it)

Anyway see yas there,

Shake and Bake.

I'll be there but not racing, haven't had enough time to get the car up on the dyno.

Baz, let us know what time your heading out bro.

Wont be able to make it tonight - but let me know when the next one is as keen to go.

Would have been there but my car got broken into and i need the funds to pay for that.

Not feeling lucky with this car.

bit of a disappointing night, only one or two skylines were there on the night that i saw.

Couple of oil spills, and also back wheel of some guys car came off after doing his burnout.

Fair few commodores were there.

I made my achievement of the night to get into the 12's ( 12.8, 60ft - 1.989 - Mph 115)

Maybe next time we will get a few guys out.

Good effort. Is that on street tyres ?

How many runs did you get on the night ?

Nah was on MT Streets, but i had about 22psi in the tyres. ( skidded first )

Only managed to get two runs down as there were a fair few cars there.

Next time i will put the pressure of the tyres to 15psi, and see how i go then.

Hopeful then for a low 12, if i can get the 60ft down a little more to 1.8.

    • Trail braking done right, should have the rear unsettled, such that you're actually turning the car by a noticeable amount WITH the brakes, and hence noticeably less steering input.
    • No you don't. Just no more driving in the wet, and clean your window manually before you drive
    • I'm not sure if they tick your boxes, but Haltech would be my pick. I'm an Adaptronic guy from way back, and Haltech acquired Adaptronic to basically get Andy, AND his IP on how he does things like fuel modelling etc.
    • Just on this, as there's a huge issue in your assumption Dose.   The logic you've given, is the same logic old school NA guys give for "needing back pressure" in an exhaust. If you free up an exhaust system, and keep injecting the same fuel in etc, at the same timing, you'll typically drop power. Freeing the exhaust will often make an engine want a little bit more timing, and even sometimes a little more fuel, but then it'll make even more power.   There's many mods people do and "get no extra power" when running a comparison on the same tune. Imagine a car tuned for 91, but now we say put 98 in it, see no difference. But as we now have 98 fuel, you can run more timing, and make more power, as the 91 was knock limited.   So just be very wary in your claim of "don't retune it and do a back to back and you'll see". The correct approach would be tune the car with stock manifold, swap the manifold to aftermarket, and retune it again. But no one wants to do that, and all the results we get are "this was stock, and this is manifold changed and tuned" and people put it all down as just the tune doing it.
    • Unplug ECU. Unplug TPS. Unplug boost pressure sensor. Now, all the wires, placing your ground (black) multimeter lead at the ECU end, measure resistance of the 5V line at the boost sensor plug. Then do the same to the TPS plug. Then do the same for all the other wires that relate to the TPS, or boost sensor.   All of your measurements should be very very low. You're looking to see if wiring is out of wack here.   Secondly, from memory on the R33 (not a neo motor, so I'm assuming an r34) the ground wire for the TPS and boost sensor are NOT equal to ground of the car/battery. IE, DO NOT connect ground of the sensor to the engine/body of car. You'll get a ground loop, and/or potentially screw shit up. In electronics, ground for a circuit, is not necessarily equal to ground of another circuit.   So this leads me to ask, when measuring your 5V, how are you getting 1.5V? Where are your multimeter leads touching for both the red and black lead on the multimeter?   If you're measuring power on the sensor wire, and putting ground on the car chassis or negative battery terminal, that could be all of your issues in "getting 1.5v". Electronics engineers can do some funky stuff with circuits, and when both sensors are on, it's enough laid to alter how the ECU is functioning.
