Glad I could be of assistance.

I have used that a fair bit to help guys work out gear, wheel and tyre combinations for race use.

As you can see it predicts exactly where in the rev range it will drop to so you can alter your gearing to keep the engine singing at the sweet spot instead of dropping down too low in the revs.

With enough data you can set up a car with different combinations for circuit work without actually having to try out all the wheel tyre diff ratio combinations first hand.

Also helps out for drag racers as it shows that you don't necessarily have to hold it redline for each gear change depending on the ratios in your box. Sometimes it works out to be quicker to short shift one or two gears.

Awesome, just posting here for bookmarkage :P and damn usefulness, especially that program

Today, I was talking to a friend about choosing the right turbo&cams to suit an 8k rpm redline but he suggested that you may not even need such a high redline, if you can just pull down a gear and still be on full boost and in peak power

He had a excel graph of his gear ratios but this is way better, will pass it on as well..

Will have to play around with combinations of the GTS4 diff/gbox and GTR diff/gbox.

Basically going to be building a 4wd Rb30DET into a GTS4 next year, but unsure of whether going to use the GTS4 or GTR diff/gbox (or combination)

Does anyone have the ratios of the GTS4 diff and gearbox? I did a quick google but didn't get anything, will take another look after dinner :banana:

Edit: looks like the GTS-4 and GTR gearboxes are the same ratios (im talking R32 here btw :)) but the diff ratio on the GTR is 4.111 and GTS-4 is 4.375 -- correct?

Guess i gotta disagree. So many Supras here in the states run a Powerglide or TH400 doing sub 9 second passes. Not to mention 90% of the Domestics run the Powerglide or TH400 doing 7's. Not sure how these dont qualify as "real race cars"?

hmmmm...

Lets try this again...

Like he said, no real >>insert sarcastic tonehere with tongue in cheek whilst having a go at lazy drag racers with auto boxes who cant be bothered or are too slow to change gears for themselves and anyway most "real" race cars go around corners and change up and down gears<< race car runs an auto...

Paul, whats the 9 sec twoogle run in the way of gear selecting device???

    • New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.
    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • 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.
