Michael, yours sounded tough as out there today! Noticed smoke come from underneath the car under deacceleration/down shifts, I presume power steering fluid dropping on the exhaust?

You're right Luke, it was the power steering fluid.

Nice program^^^. How did it create the map of mallala? Through google maps etc or just traced your path? You planning to head out agin soon, definetly want to see this thing in action!

Looking at it, I would say it uses GPS tracking technology.

210kph thru the kink? Too bad, just 15kph shy of what my bike can do :banana:

Joeleo - do you mean a trackskill car because i wouldn't put them in the same class as a super v8

do you always have to compare apples to oranges

like children at a competition,we all know how fast bikes go,this sites called skylines not bikes r us,otherwise a lot of people would have heaps of stuff to say,accidents and all that,keep it constructive,this sites getting worse,we all know who the try hards and posers are,dont stoop to that level guys

Damo ... you've changed man :/

j/k point taken :P I'm just still 'switched on' from the GP weekend.

No bike does 225kmh through the kink......

"no bike" is a pretty big statement.............Rossi or Stoner may have something to say about that on their lightweights ;)

some of these guys below do similar bends on the Isle of Mann at 260kph on one wheel.........unfortunately this guy didn't quite make the bend, ouch!! :/

Isle of Mann bend at 256kph

At a guess it made the map with a G sensor, my go kart data logger would do the same thing

A current spec litre bike will exit the top of turn 3 at around 60km/h and then have 200 metres to accelerate to peak speed before gentle braking or a complete roll off into the kink. There is no such thing as holding a 180-200ps superbike through the kink flat on conventional road tyres, and there are very few that could roll through there at a genuine 230km/h. The more powerful the bike, the more the back straight gets divided into two straights with a bend in the middle :)

Mallala is always the same story. It seems no matter who you speak to, or how slow their lap times are the bike/car car goes into the kink at 180 - 200km/h. Fact is an R35GTR, one of the quickest production cars you can buy, and capable of an 11 second quarter in stock form, fires out of turn 3 with full traction and enters the kink at an ACTUAL 180km/h, absolutely flat to the boards. Data logging like this, rather than a quick glimpse at the speedo, tells the whole story, even if it doesnt sound so cool :O

I think you have a point there given the wheel slip/loss of actual speed but I for one would love u to lend ruby ur tracking kit.... looks hardcore good (certainly looks better than the home made telemetry system im building)

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
