well theres a alot of variables that can contribute to a good ET... but one thing is u cant compare apples with oranges....my car is totally diiferent to urs so y are u even tryin to compare .....try tyre choice for one, suspension setup two, 60ft times three, drag strip ran on four, and the list goes on.... its not tricks...its common sense....or maybe u think i shagged the officials for a fudged time slipp...now theres a trick for you! Just out of curiosity, do u question everybody that runs a better time than u? :) :) cuz rotors do 11s with 90mph passes

Myself and BenM were racing the same night as AMU, Clint there were no slicks or auto, we don't need to cheat in NSW on our 1/2 prepped 3 runs a fornight drag strip :)

Its all skill baby :shake:

Also I have the time slip from when AMU ran the 12.2 as I was racing him hahahaha so trust me its all good

i wasnt accusing anyone of cheating, please tell the tyres you were running then amu they must work extremely well.

Our cars are not different, both skylines, running the same gearbox and diff ratios, mines a bit smaller thats all, Busters time is only 3 thenths quicker with a extra 10 mph.

nearly everyday i pop back into this thread HOPING that the times have either been updated / uploaded or the new site created - and everyday I am once again let down :D

How long is it going to take?

Or should we go back to the old drag list?

My [and others] drag runs were done 3 weeks ago now and still nothing!!! argh!!!

/goes back to feeling sorry for himself...

Sorry about the delay guys. I've got a guy here at work building a database to do all of this much quicker with heaps more details but its taking longer than I thought.

Please read the initial thread message for details.

NickR33,

I ran a 14.3 @ 98mph with 2.4 60ft when my car only had a cat back zorst and pod filter and on 205s. Your mph seems a little low, even for stock.

Yeah I couldn't get any more than 89mph at the top end, and apparently I was blowing a bit of black smoke. So it could be the stock cat/exhaust restriction or it could be due to the fact I have'nt had the car serviced or tuned since I bought it a month ago... maybe I'm running a little rich?

A 14.3 is very quick for a stock car with exhaust mods :) ...my mate was struggling to do that time with 11psi and 235's!

On my first ever run I managed a 14.46 with 7psi, 225's, POD, full 3" exhaust and an absolutely bucketload of axle tramp (grr grr and grrrr). If I can get rid of the axle tramp i should be into the high 13's which will put a smile on my face (for my driving ability).

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
