WAAWHO,

Rippin time Shaun, the diff change might increase your final MPH, great 60' time, that is where you make all the good ET's, thinking you will need a terminal speed around 119-120mph to really crack the 12SEC barrier. YES Shaun, send your times into HPI because that time puts you in the TOP 10 6 cyl RWD assisted. WELL DONE.

yeah, I was thinking that too Gav.....

when Rs are run on a rwd dyno using the "secret method", does this rwhp represent the true hp that would be seen if the car was in fact FR? or is there still some high drive train loss? I can only assume so, since standard R 1/4 times are in the high twelves. surely, if there was that much to be gained by running the 26 to the rear wheels, everyone who wanted an 11 second GTR would just pull a fuse!

there are quite a few gts-ts floating around now with well over the "stockish" gtr rwhp figures (~330 to 350) but not many with these sort of times...

...so is it all about the nittos? or is there something more to it?

Sean - not sure of the weight difference, but nothing in the drivetrain is light.

When I ripped out the HICAS and replaced it with a solid bar I saved more than 10kg!

Nothing secret in the R32 about 2wd mode, just pull the fuse. As there isn't a free wheeling hub set-up in GTRs, there will still be added resistance of the front drive shafts free wheeling when driving.

I can't imagine that this plays a part on the dyno, however.

I'd be really interested to see a comparison between a GTRs 1/4 times on 4wd and then with the fuse pulled.

if there isnt a free wheeling hub, you'd really expect additional drivetrain losses over RwD - which would mean that the actual power made will be greater than "represented" by the dyno readout.

...not wanting to go getting into a "dyno readouts arent what it's about" slagging match....

I think that Gav should take his down with nitto's, he has virtually the same power as Got Boost, will make an interesting comparison:D

Not for long Paul - should be bolting on a couple of 25/40s in the next couple of weeks anong with some bigger injectors.

Hope to have all/most done by the time I get back to Perth in early Nov.

    • Ok, just the way you wrote it made it look like you had the stagger the wrong way around 
    • I was getting anxious with the DVLA not knowing if the paperwork is fine or not, so I rang them. No update had been given, but I  was reassured that providing the box was ticked on the V750 then the application will go through fine. I've been checking the DVLA website pretty much every day, in the hope that it would have been done. Fast forward to Monday 29th  and I was greeted with a new screen on the check, and it finally showed as Taxed and MOT'd, woohoo! The car was in desperate need of a clean, not knowing when this day was coming it was put off. As far as I was concerned I had another 3 weeks  I'm not normally one for using snow foam, but I wanted to give it another try It hasn't cleaned up too bad considering it's 21 years old and lived on a boat for a number of weeks. The personalised number plate is J2 XBK, an illegally spaced number plate would have it read J2X BK. BK could either represent  the colour black or Baker, which is my surname. I filmed the first drive, the Youtube link will be at the end. I used the same driving route I did with the 323F V6 when I had a new exhaust installed, heres a couple of photos A few more since then Youtube video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjkFHPzjGDw
    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
