attached a very dark picture of M5 engine bay for whoever is interested to look at. The car is almost affordable at $200,000AUD+onroad+insurance etc ... Now just let me break my piggie bank :) :bahaha:

Got some footage of Jay racing Mick at Willowbank Sat (9/8/03)...but don't have webspace to load it, will get it up soon though...what did you get last run Mick when you ran against Jay??

I was aiming for a flat 13.1.

60ft - 1.988 ET - [email protected] mph

then after a bit more tuning (or fiddling, whichever you want to call it), realed off a

60ft - 2.045 ET - [email protected]

MODS:

Pod and exhaust

FMIC

Apexi PFC, base tune by Gavin Woods then I fiddled with final tune

ooh, and homemade boost controller

Maybe a little more time to be had still - wouldn't mind a 12.8...actually wouldn't mind an 11 second run.

Yeah, like the sound of the 11 better, stuff the 12.8

4 doorz: i ran a 13.764 @ 108.46MPH, was pretty funny... i cut a huge 2nd gear burnout and had to get on the brakes pretty hard to pull up before the line. When i went to move it into stage it just stalled straight away, it was then i noticed that i had managed to stall perfectly into stage!!!

i started it back up and looked up just in time to see the 2nd orange light so i dumped it hard and bogged down, the result was a 2.5 60' time which was disapointing. I pulled a 2.2 the run before finishing with a 13.2 so i was hopeing to crack a 12.

The twin plate is very difficult to launch, it really needs a set of slicks as street tyres just spin.

did u notice that the street machines skyline was running federals as well 4 Doorz.

My mate has them on his GSR too, cheap tyres but very soft compound so they work well for 1/4 mile raceing.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
