I'm sure you'll get into 11's with slicks hey, I was going to film you after my last run but you'd run off. oh well.

HAHAH yeh thats me. The one who doesnt know how to take off.

I will be out again hopefully at the next wednesday night st meet but i'l be hoping its not as packed! I was expecting atleast a good 10 runs untill i got there and i was like "WTFFF". Well with the mph i was running it should do an 11 with ease though at jambo i will like to see the 10sec bracket.

Problem is hitting 3rd and wheel spinning.

well i watched the vid my mate took, he actually got my run against the m5

great launch, 2.1 60ft and halfway down the track you can hear my car rev its guts off and slow down a bit.... damn 3rd gear wasnt where i thought it was :P

so i missed my 13 i believe. i did however do a 14.0 with a 2.2sec 60ft

really needs the powerfc to unlock its potential i think

Yeah it was heaps of fun, being my first time I was a bit nervous but 51jay helped out heaps and told me what to do so I didn't stuff up or just start driving down the track without knowing what to do. Just gotta work on my reaction time (1sec heh) and it'll be better.

Thanks for the help 51jay appreciate it! Did you end up getting cracking the 13's?

I did manage a 14.1 as my PB out of 4 runs which I'm pretty happy with. Specially the fact its an auto.

Yeah I got paired with the M5. Although I expected it to do better it only did a 13.65, but it looked impressive.

But yeah hope to go again as soon as I can, I think Im hooked now too :P

Although dunno how I can drive any better cause an auto is pretty straight forward. Spool to 2k release brake and plant it. Gives pretty consitant times compared to a manual. What about using the hand brake to spool higher? Or shifting the gears manually? Although the power button does goto 6800rpm or so before changing. Leave overdrive off or on?

I will be at the next one for sure. Need practice to get consistant launches. Ignoring the last run where I gave it way too much off the line, I was getting about 2.3 60ft times which can be improved on I think. I didn't let any pressure out of the tyres though, so running 36psi probably doesn't help. Judging by my best terminal speed of 96.8 mph not sure I can improve my time by too much though. Time for some HP mods me thinks.

Bit of a unit you got there mate!

Thanks. Basically its got all the set up + more mods thats not listed on that website. Only difference now is that its a 2.5lt not a 3.0lt. Still, i should be good for 480rwhp using standard head, cams & cam gears. Currently its at 360rwhp (270rwkw). Still running low boost :(

James...i got your 2.1 60ft run against the M5 on vid but don't know how to load...you certainly do need a PFC, you will be able to bargin one from Nengun for near $1400 (HC + PFC).

Was happy with my runs. I was hoping realistically only for a 13.3 but now hopefully with some more tuning and better shifting, I hope for a high 13.1 next time

Was good to see so many skylines out there! And good to see skylines racing against other skylines. Will hopefully see such a generous turn out next time!

4 Doorz is your vid cam a digital or normal tape one? I can capture vids as long as theres AV/s-video output from the vid cam. Don't have a pc that can take firewire digital yet though. :P

    • 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?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
