look at the monster launch

looks like it needs to be dumped in the front..

Haha - Yeah, love that 'speedboat' launch.

Don't worry Dale - I've got some video of you. Will try to plonk up today.

Al: Haha :D

Gary, the owner of Impul also got some good footage of some duels ....

Will be viewing some tonight at BMT around 10-11pm ... I hope he has it ready!

RiggaP .. nxt time just ask me to borrow the 235 semi's ... would have been great to help in your traction dept. (maybe you would like to borrow my turbos too?)

Nice pics Jamezilla ! .. how about that side shot I framed for you? :D

Thanx Meggala for posting the Full Boost pic .. you can see the white hands as I'm visualizing 129mph

...surprised me too as i approached the 1/4 mile mark, thinking about the gear change to 4th ... then, well just kept it planted LOL ... and crossed the line in 3rd @ 129.72

Did pretty well for little old semislicks if i say so myself ... clean snapped the input shaft just before it enters the gearbox .. at BMT we cracked the box open and confirmed the aftermarket gearset looking very nice (just running standard input shaft from RB25box!)... why faster this time even though running full slicks at calder? .. calder my first run was without heating tyres and still bogged down, then second run snapped axle. This time I bogged first run, wheelspun too much second run, third run still spun (then bogged :D) .. then benny had a go and snapped the shaft!

How to we get a good 60ft? ..

1) Strengthen everything through cryogenics, billets shafts, etc ... and run 275 nitto's.

2) Drop Auto box with 6,000 rpm stall for drag purposes...

... anyone up for 5th gear Wangan!?

cheers,

Oyabun

PS: Held the right foot flat on the drive home ... in a duel with Impul ...

whaddaya expect when driving the EXKGB (Jamezillas Orange Lada :D .. Impul treated me to about a thousand blue flames though ... damn cool, as almost every gearchange at cruising throttle produced a nice 4-5" flame.

Hey DAVE.... *nudge**nudge*

:D

good stuff to all of you guys! showing what the SAU - Vic is all about. Would have loved to have been there instead of canberra!

Oh, and to all those saying/asking how riggaP got his time etc etc.

He'd have similar mods to most of you, but the one thing is he knows how to drive his car a bit better than others with higher times. Nothing 'secret' or anything.

But slightly better and he'd have a 13.5. The mph is good for it..

You are more Paranoid than I am Ash - nobody ever questioned how or why he got those times :D

So you are saying none of us know how to drive?

Well, I still have *my* licence and *my* turbo still works - your comments arent appreciated.

Driving on the track is much different to the roads too BTW so I really dont know how you can say he knows how to drive better than others?

Add a helmet to the equation and it really does take a few runs to know what you are doing.

I am really sick of the *I am better than you* attitude that seems to go on around here. We are supposed to be a club / friends / working together...

I respect those comments. Times are times...people some have different techniques and every car is different thoe they may have similar specs. Clutches are differernt engine condition is different, how people launch may differ thier are to many variables. Everyone drives how they drive its had to generalize that someone drives better than someone else this may differ in changing conditions. Cant be bothered writing this shit..Respect Peoples point of views. :D

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
