Sorry if I missed it but what tyres did you run? Good result with potential, bring on the 11s!

Pretty sure he said MickyTs somewhere :)

Tested the atr28g2 on the 180sx today at wsid

Was very busy and only managed one decent run

On 20psi boost got 12.4 at 120mph shit 60ft 2.2 had abit if wheel spin on launch

Tried high boost 24psi but blew a cooler hose off and ruined the run also track temps were 30c in the middle of the day

Will be definately heading back in a few weeks on a Wednesday night when it's cooler and hopefully crack that Dam 11s

Still got 4-5psi in it so maybe 20kw and will let down the Tyres down more as I got et streets and was on 30psi try 25 or less psi

Very nice -that is on E85, right? That has definite 11s potential, especially on high boost!

Ah sweet, thanks :D

Yeah eflex and et streets

Awesome! What size are you running out of curiosity? (I will be getting the same tyre eventually!)

255/50/16 on 300zx stockies

The difference they make is massive

If you thought you car was fast before once you try these you will be amazed

You can flat foot it in first gear and smash it in second no wheel spin at all just a chirp

Nice! And yeah i have been told getting grip through the first couple of gears really makes it feel like a different car, i cant get mine off the line no matter what i try so to have this sort of grip would just be nuts!!! :woot: well done.... Oh, much of a burnout prior to the run?

As if his answer is going to stop you doing a burnout! :P

Shhhh :ph34r: was just hoping it would be justified :P

LOL Do a little one Matt. Just enough to get the crap off your tyres and get a tiny bit of heat into them.

The drive back from the end of the strip is through the burnout patch so you pick up heaps of shit box grubbyness and bits of rooted rubber.

Just do a little one to get SOME heat into the tyres and clean the crap off. Don't pinch the brakes too hard though, or you will fry the VLSD like I did on my 13.0 pass :) Single pegged off the line.

No single pegging with the Nismo but thanks for the tips ;)

I found tyre pressure had more of an effect than length of burnout for myself. When doing a burnout I'd just keep it going until the rears started really pushing the car forward, or if I've head a couple of seconds of solid smoke - whichever came first... then slowly let it creep then release the brake and just nail the throttle because it's fun and you get a bit of a hint of what kind of hook up you may get when you launch, to decide how hard to feed it to it off the line.

You know if i do this i am likely to end up in the grandstand? :P

Lol I don't mean keep in it for ages :P Just enough to get a launch off your burnout then get off it again before you end up in a tree/grandstand/half way up the dragstrip ;)

I only have a shimmed stock VLSD and normal street tyres on mine, so a big dirty burnout like that was more likely to cook the oil in the diff or make the tyres really greasy lol

What was really fail for me is that I had good traction on my first 2 runs but had bad boost cut, and on my cleanest run I spun like an idiot lol.

Lol I was clearly addressing his question regarding warming up the MTs :P Besides, if you have the power to run 120mph+ on road tyres with a RWD then you are clearly just there for the burnouts!

Oh wait, 114mph... nvm ;)

LOL 115 thank you very much!

As a response to this comment I have emailed unigroup about a time to bring the car in and amend the tune :P I will see if it can be done on a Wednesday so I can make the most of the trip ;)

Awesome - I am sure you'll keep us updated :)

Might be a good idea to see if VCT can be enabled in your S14, that makes a very noticeable difference in how the car behaves down low, they appears to work fine with Tomei drop in Pon cams.

Some video footages from David at the latest Stadium drift competition at Wakefield NSW.

Its a Laurel with Rb25det and our standard high flow profiled turbocharger. Tuned by Toshi.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
