mods please? you certainly couldn't have done it with only the power rating at the top of the screen, because i can't even get into the 40's with full mods but on street tyres (superlap challenge). i think when doing the superlap challenge i put on medium race tyres and pulled out a low 48 second lap on my first try. maybe tomoro night i might have another go (not going to be home tonight). sounds like a challenge though.

Full modded. Qualify tyres. Kept stock wing though. (Sif rice up a Nur :))

Don't know why the top says that, it always shows stock specs, no matter the car.

That lap I actually fked the last corner but rest of the lap was so good that it still broke into the 46s. CBF'd doing more laps lol.

Oh yea, stock controller :)

ten four, your tsukuba lap, was that using nos? last night i played around for a while, and even with the wing changed (to get downforce), but without nos, the best i could manage was a mid 47. i don't think the wing added too much too it though. also i haven't played the game in a looooooong time, so i'm pretty rusty. i was only able to manage 1 lap into the 47's and 2 or 3 into the 48's. most of my laps were in the 49's or 50's where i used to be able to get into the 50's on street tyres when i was doing the superlap challenge. once when doing that (which i posted in either this thread or the other one) i put on medium tyres and did a mid 48 lap first go without nos, and that was in a vspec, not a nur which was putting out about 70hp less than the nur

No nos no aids no tcs. I just got every corner perfect except for a slip up on the last one.

Basically I power in hard and powerslide out of the corners (trying to keep slide to minimum so as to not waste time). Also I use manual, if that helps?

Theres some guy on youtube with a 44.9 .... Those guys are nuts.

(Looks like he's played with the suspension and gear ratios..)

I want a G27..

yeah his lap was much cleaner than mine. he's pretty much a second up on me by the first time check. if i didn't use nos during the lap, but did before crossing the line to start the lap, and made how i took the last corner a way that gives the highest speed when i cross the line i could do better, but each of my laps that i do is just 1 quick lap after another, so the run i get onto the start straight isn't the ideal line to get a good start to the lap.

Ok i pulled this out again the other day to play with (god i'd missed it) so i'm up for the a challenge.

Lets set some rules tho, i see alot of times for alot of cars with alot of different mods.

Lets pick and agree on a stock/AM car, leave it unmodified (tuning allowed) set tires, track and driving mode (arcade time trial or turismo practise) and crack on.

ATM i dont know what car track or time i'm trying to beat.

Being SAU, i'd say GTR, any factory model or the mines on the ring.

well if it's the ring then count me out cause i just plain suck at it.

why not do it at a track that's a bit different, rather than one that everyone always races on. something like midfield raceway. it has high speed corners, long corners, long straights and the corner just before you go under the tunnel requires a bit of braking while turning.

as for cars, i'd like to go something that isn't a nissan for once. i actually have a soft spot for the au falcon v8 supercar. around tsukuba i'm quicker in it than a gtr.

yeah ok i'm happy to compromise and not to the ring, a shorter track will make life easier and the times tighter (hence more exciting) too.

I'm trying to find a map of all the gt4 tracks because i cant recall the layouts and names off the top of my head.

how about Fuji 05 GT

As for cars... ok... one request... whatever car we use must have nothing in common with a 1040's wily jeep

so no yank tanks.

ok we can do that track. i've never really raced on it as far as going all out, so should be a challenge. only races i've done on it have been ones that have been part of championships, so never taken a car around in my spare time unlike some of the other tracks.

so now it is just a case of picking a car. as much as i like the skylines, i'd really like to use something completely different since we are going out of the ordinary with the track.

how about something fwd or rwd rather than 4wd/awd. hell why not even pick 2 cars to use so we can have both a rwd and fwd challenge. something like a s15 for the rwd and a honda integra for the fwd.

also what will be the rules on mods, etc? fully modded but default settings? what tyres? sports, racing or normal, and any restrictions on compound? obviously no nos

actually, what would be good to try would be to use the nike car (if everyone still has it). that thing isn't too bad to drive, but i'm guessing no-one has really done much racing with it so we would all be on a level playing field. i've only done a few laps on 1 of the city courses to see how fast it goes.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
