That or actually do some mods to my car?

If you drop the pressure below 20psi, the tyres don't seem to grip so well.

Put your car down the strip, see what it can do and then watch your times drop as you start to do the mods.

what dya mean by u missed 3rd NA_R33?

just wondering cause ive seen it in mags and etc abt ppl missing gears in drags and i was just wondering what it meant...

how do u guys get these times and etc?

cheeres guys

its basiclly stuffing up a gear change

like missing the gate, or goin from 2nd to 5th, etc

it severly stuffs ur time, lol

i have found with my car that a set of 225/65/15 brigestone GIIIs set to about 25psi tend to stick very well - but only if i do a big burnout before the run.

with 17s all round i did a best of 14.8, and big traction probs, with the GIIIs (drive straight through the water and just bake them for like 10 seconds) i dropped down to a 14.505 - saved .2 of a second off just the 60ft alone!! couldnt believe what revs/launch technique i was able to get away with!

car is a ,manual EB XR6 Falcon with extractors, exhaust, small cam and 3.9:1 LSD

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
