Did some tuning over the weekend. sorted a boost leak that made a bad noise at 17+ psi. After going over the logs from friday night, the car makes 16psi at 4000rpm. I've upped the boost to 19psi, but havn't done and tuning or logging on it yet.

Damo wasn't able to drive the car for more tuning today, so i knocked up a heatshield to keep the inlet cool

Should have the tuning finished this week, and then it's off to it's first supersprint on sunday

Well the car got it's first run on the track this weekend. I was pretty happy with how it went, only problem was a pertty bad shudder though the steering wheel after the brakes heated up, i'm hoping it's just the pads going through there first heat cycle. They are Endless ccx that came with the calipers, and from a quick glance at the net, other people have had the same problem with the stoptech/ccx combo. I recon I'll put some hawks into them.

The car is very easy to drive, and we only just touched the surface of the shock tuning, the rebound is still at full soft. The car was still getting .5 sec a lap faster with each change. Ended up the day with a 62.8. Always fun when people come and basicly call you a lier when you tell them it's a standard wrecker rb20, with a rb20 highflow.

I will put some video on the tubes tonight, and upload some of Damo's artsy pics

the washer bottle is the temp catch tank.

no idea on power, only dyno it's been near is the arse dyno, asit was all road tuned. It's running 16psi boost at the moment...might need to turn it up some more though

Don't you just love it. Its a good feeling when you exceed peoples expectations with a humble, maligned RB20 :)

Re the brakes , CCX are good things but perhaps they are too hard on rotors. I have used only one set and loved them but they did seem to have an appetite for rotors with regards to shudder and cracking. I will be trialling the PFC 06 pads with the Stoptechs and 343mm rotors. I am really happy with how they have all come up. I will try and get a set of DS3000s to trial back to back with the PFC06 before they get too worn

Any Vids/pics yet?

Nice vid. How fast was your GTR around SP?

Best I got was a 60.9. But as you can see it's all about HP, and the GT-R was up 10-15km/h at the end of the straights, and cause of the brake problem was a braking 35-50m earlier than a was in the GT-R.

In the Targa N1 the last time I drive it, it was in 2009 trim, and I got a 60.3. But 2010 trim was about 50rwkw more.

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
