I would definitely try reducing that toe on the rear to 0 or even a bit of toe in (maybe start with half a mil each side). toe out makes them a bit taily. I know it squats a fair bit but yeah some toe in on the rear will make it a bit better to drive. I'm sure most guys that have tried different alignments on their skylines and GTRs would agree.

bummer about needing the oil tank in the engine bay. can you not seal off the boot area with a proper firewall and keep it in the boot? or does andra mandate that all fluids must be confined to the engine bay or something?

No worries i will experiment with the toe's and cambers thanks for your input duely noted thumbsup.gif. Its hard at the moment to get consistent data feedback due to the lack of practice but once we do these few minor adjustments to the car and get passed by Andra we can go full throttle.

As for the sump tank Andra states that all oils, batteries etc must not be in the drivers compartment, our's is behind the passenger seat at the moment and we do not have enough room in the boot for a 15L tank, easiest option is to sell the big tank and buy a smaller one and mount it in the engine bay like most dry sumped drag GTR's put them. No big drama its fairly easy change so no skin off our nose.

Also our Stillway 0-400m Drag shifter turned up today, so i installed and tested it straight away, seems like a good bit of gear, now we don't have to worry about putting in the wrong gear and killing the engine. I also got pulled over by the Cops while my brother and I were driving it for a RBT, they had a pretty cheesy grin on the face as the knew the car was definitely not street legal, but they didn't say anything and drove off and let us be. Thought they were gonna impound the car for sure hahaha maybe next timewoot.gif.

Will get some pics tomorrow for you, they basically stop you from downshifting into the wrong gear. e.g when you go from 1st to 2nd, you can not physically can not back into 1st, it locks you out, and the same with 2nd to 3rd. Its a pretty trick bit of gear very good for people with PPG dogboxes.

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
