so who was down there?? I didn't see this thread before I headed down there with a mate in his F6 typhoon.

Saw Simon, I didn't catch the names of the other skyline owners there. Mine was the stock 34 GTR with the TE37's, not the lovely one with the GTC's :)

For everyone's benefit my stocker ran a 13.7 which is probably pretty spot on for a stock 34.

My mate's F6 (BAII) ran a 13.8 which is stock except for being flash tuned to 270rwkw.

3rd run ever, pretty stocked, specially with only 15psi, 38 degree track temp, 13 knot headwind and 18's.

Get a final tune next week, up the boost to 18psi and see how we go. Might wait until it gets a little cooler before I start my evening also (read get my missus to take a jacket so I do not have to leave at 8.30 hehehe).

Be cool to see if I could hook up some loaner 17's too but meh.

TWAS good fun indeed and how is the guy that bought that deluxe 34 Vspec from over east, the blue one with forged engine and GTSS's, reaction time: 0.001 WOW!!! winner of $300

Good fun isn't it :laugh:

Mph indicates you were down on power. Being a hot day possibly heat soak, you have cold air induction or just pods?

Hey I only just saw this thread!

I was in the modded blue 34, was running slow times because of a boost leak from a crack in my i/c pipe. I was launching it as high as 8k rpm and it was still bogging down! I fixed it yesterday, and omg shes quick now!! Wasn't a wasted night though as winning the reaction time competition for $300 was nice :)

Rematch this Wednesday Simon :D Hope the tune goes well, should be very interesting.

rev210 just pods mate, thinking I should isolate to get some cold in there but Xspeed said waste of time, I reckon heat soak. Did not get tuned today cos of heat

Get a final tune done with the bonnet down

Hot air = lower power

Thats why you have an intercooler

cold air partitions are a must for pods. Go backwards in power otherwise. The hotter the day + the more heat soak the worse it is.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
