u could look at a mid 13 to low 13 u mite be pushing any 12 but it all the driver and a good take off u could hav 2 drivers same car 1 get a 15 1 get a 13 so noone could giv u a good answer but the car should be capable of a mid 13

it is a how to guide but it is the driver. u could get a better time but have more power in a lighter car your next prob is traction. i got a 32 gtst when i ran mine had about 190 rwkw and ran a 13.5 but bad traction launched at to high revs. does the how 2 guide tell u what to launch at because what if 2 drivers do differant launch 1 at 4g and 1 at 7g they both goin to get 13.4. it just doesnt make sense but best way is run it u mite surprise yourself and get a 12 i hope u do. just run it a thew times each launch at diff revs to test it out

lol 40 profile on 17inch rims is only gonna get your mates going "pwoaahh sandy you got no traction down the quater" lol, get some nice street/racing slicks, and then what ever you run will only improve on the launching department, as your traction department will be covered...

when you do end up taking it out, post your time on here. i keep meaning to take mine out, but little things just keep going wrong.

got a boost leak at the moment.

before that it was the rear camber

and before that it was the clutch

and so on and so on.

never anything major, but enough to keep me away from the track.

my younger bro ran a 13.3 with simular mods to you in a r33 with a 2.0s 60 foot time.

If you can drive it hard and launch it well (his tyres were shit so theres no reason why you can better his 60 foot time), theres a good chance for a very low 13 pass. Put slicks on and launch it hard and a high 12 should be on the cards.

I'd say mid 13's should be on the cards at least - From what i remember a few years back when i got a seat in that thing it was mighty quick and had me smiling for a while :happy: BTW, I'm your mate Steve's cousin if you remember.

I'm hoping to tap into the 13's with my car:

stock RB20

+ 3" split dump&front / high-flow cat / 3.5" cat-back

+ FMIC

+ bosch 040 pump

+ APexi power intake

+ remap (boost restrictor/speedcut removed + ignition timing advanced with new fuel map)

160kw atw before remap, was quoted a 10-15kw gain after remap & between 10-12 pound ATM - car running extremely well.

Cheers,

Steve.

years ago when my 32 had an rb25 with 190rwkw std rb25det unknown ks 3in turbo back, pwr intercooler,microtech ecu 11-14psi no difference. run between 13.2 to 13.4 all day on 225 street tyres 108mph i think.would just break into a 12 with m/t street slicks id say

got walbro myself. nice and quiet, and also reaches to the bottom of the tank, so can use the full tank of fuel, as oposed to 3/4 of it.

as soon as i find this damn boost leak, will take my car down to the quarter. expecting mid to high 13's....

at the moment replacing the front bushes, so won't be fixing the leak for at least a month or so. budget just does not allow it.

You wont need 230 at all.

I ran 12.9's @ 109mph all day long (lots of practice and i was very consistent back in the day)

And that was with 220rwkw, RB25 in a car over 1400kg (HR31 GTSR)

This was using 225 Simex tyres, nothing special, nothing thick.

R32 is lighter by a reasonable margin, it should be able to do it with 200rwkw.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
