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.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
