What is it like driving a car that takes until 5k before the power really kicks hard? Is it annoying on the street or is there still plenty of meat below 5k? Looks like a solid 200kw at 4k, does it feel good at the lower revs?

It might give that figure on the dyno but I can tell you now i reach fullboost on the road ALOT earlier then whatever it says on that sheet!

It feels fine.... You have to remember a stock GTR makes what.... 180 or 200 kw at the wheels stock.... It might only feel like it has "not much" because 1000 RPM later your making almost double that! To drive around in traffic is no worries at all.

If they made them yeah. :banana:

looks like they make em too me mate, :)

285/30/18 only prob you would have is finding wheels with the right offset to fit 285 under 32 guards.....

What offset is required (say for 18 x 10's or 10.5's)? +18 or +22?

Other wise 265/35's might be the way to go?

you can stick 285 on a 9" or 9.5"

def not +18 i got 18x10 +18 on my car, the biggest i think ill fit under it is a 265, as the lip of the rim hangs out past the guard.

id say +22 or bigger, even +22 it would be close, on a 32R it would def need some guard work, you can fit 285s on a 10inch wheel no worries dont no about a 9inch but.

Get your TPS sorted Steve?

Dude, what a day. Started off not getting any sleep last night. Then on the way there in the rain in rwd it was SO difficult to stop it spinning the rears. Too much low end torque, seriously I was counter steering just trying to get away from a set of lights at less than normal speed. There was a hill start on king georges road-it just slowly moved the rear to the left every time I tried to get up the hill. Sounds fun, was frustrating. Ended up starting in 2nd which was still spinning but it made it up the hill. Stupid rain.

Got the tps, $95 and the thing is tiny. Ripoff.

THEN the autronic has a Fu(kout and needs two sensors replaced. Which means sending it away for repairs (not the first time it's been broken), it's got a problem with the map sensor and the water temp sensor. It thinks, for some reason, it thinks the water temp isn't going higher than 50 degrees eventhough it's at 70 something. And the map sensor now reads 1.5bar as 2bar and the boost cut is set at 1.9bar so it's unable to rev out cause the boost cut stops it. And it thinks it's still not warm enough so it wont let you rev high anyway (autronic feature).

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!

PFC for the WIN :)

or if you really wanna get a high tech ecu get a microtech :banana: lol jokes.

deano we could run the 285s but just have to raise our cars just a tad..... like 70 mm atleast.

im soooo keen for e85, come on gossy caltex hurry up and finish the tank works :D

Yavuz just rang me, he's trying something and is about to take it for a drive. I hope he's leaned it off otherwise it doesn't have enough fuel to go around the block. Had half a tank about 60ks ago

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
