No where near the lag anyone whines about at all.

Start a thread in the NSW area - you will have a better chance :)

Not a lot of -5 GTR's in here because most on an unbuilt 2.6 end up around 360/380kw

The more I see these e85 results the more I need to get my ass into gear.

Are u using pump e85?

Pump e85, just as good as any v8 super brew... been there tested all that jazz.

To put an end to all the hub dyno bullshit we run our dyno on the latest SAE correction some other operators run the older US spec din figures which inflates power.

On two occasions within 3rwkw of the mainline @ drdrifts (same day) and on average a little less than the racepace dyno (not done back to back but car was suplied with current sheets to compare too)... close to chasers as well.

Do you have a graph by any chance for that?

+1 for proof.

My 26 with -5s had full boost between 3500-4000rpm and it was very nice. Did not feel laggy at all.

Unless by "full boost" you mean 5psi... There is no way, with a 2.6ltr that you'll make 20psi at 3500rpm on PULP. There is not one car in the 2.6ltr dyno thread that comes within 500rpm of that.

Even 4000rpm you are going to struggle on a lot of setups.

My PB 60 footer was 1.5sec and I remember when it hooked up that I actually lost grip of the steering wheel. It really got me by surprise as I didn't expect those G's.

I always had a higher respect for bikes as you get into 1:1 power to weight ratio hence this was a friendly wake up call for me at the time.

I had the same power level as you and this is capable of a 10.8 pass, proof is in the pudding :)

The hi octane r32gtr ran a 9.7 on circuit slicks i think haha and that had 440kw from what I remember? It isn't even a purpose built drag race, pure circuit car :)

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
