should bet in the 13's but you would be pushing it to get far in the 12's but

you never know tho with a sweet launch you could be there :banana:

14.0 @ 98mph. LOL

just got my mates gtech out... 12.37...at 176km/hour i think it was. 4.4 zero to 100.

this car is fresh from japan and came with boost set at about 1 bar (havnt got a friend to look at it while boosting yet).. with the warning set at 1.15 bar.

first time i have tried to launch this thing... and holly sh!t am i in love

Nice time! What type of launch did u do?

Mine only has a std clutch so cant do any launches.

thanks bud... i think mine only has a standard clutch too (still heavyish but im thinking stock??).. i just revd to about 6 and dumped the clutch.. i used to have an evo and i found riding the clutch a lil worked better but when i tried that with this car the clutch would just slip like crazy but after just dumping the clutch it grabs and away she goes.

talking gtrs-

anyone with a decent clutch, ride it to launch??? dumping causes a fair bit of traction loss..

where should i be reving to for gear changes?

My clutch feels heavier than say a clutch out of a normal car, but I would say its at best an organic heavy duty. Any launches higher than 3k and it will slip and smell for a good day or so. Which can be good as it will prevent me from snapping anything from hard lauches lol. I'll look to replace my clutch to a stronger one when its worn out as its still great for daily driving.

i would say with the relatively minor mods on your car and good time that you have your launches and gear shifts down pat.

consult your G tech

DLOOK wat mods do u have? i cant believe ur clutch slips that easy.. time for a new one me thinks, launching is the best part of a gtr IMO... or maybe i just havnt done enough of it yet to be over it.

consulting gtech...

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
