Hi all

Haven't had a chance to update since Jamboree been busy working and what not.

So we had a rollercoaster weekend at J23 this year, all things did not quite go to plan, but at the end of the day we still went quicker grabbing another PB/ World Record, still not finding the limit to this car it is amazing. We have managed to scalp some big name companies in this quest to become the worlds quickest and we are gonna try continue this domination by becoming the first 7 sec Radial GTR in the world and lay the Smack down to AMS R35 GTR plus anyone else who would like to join in on the action. Would be great to have all these cars in one country to compete with each other but this is not the case we are spread all across the world.

Over the weekend we were finding it hard to get consistent runs due to the track conditions being unpredictable, plus the car was still being tuned every run by Mr Godzilla Mark Jacobsen, so the data was all over the show. We would have loved to get some more 8 sec passes but we could only manage 2 decant runs for the weekend. First of the bat Saturday morning we reeled of a 8.54 @ 159mph straight off the trailer and things were looking promising. 2nd run the power steering belt decided to go walk about and took out the hall sensor on crank trigger, had to tow car back to pits, new sensor and power steering was scraped and decided to run with out it for the rest of weekend. 3rd run we bogged the start as the track was too sticky and didn't have enough HP dialled in off the line to spin all 4's.

Sunday morning straight up in round 1 of final we nailed it, peeled of a 8.39 @164mph, was not 100% clean run but still very happy with the result. 2nd round we got knocked out as we smoked the tires off the line, too many HP's and that was J23 over for us.

Was a great result for us the Car survived with no breakages, got another record under the belt, now as far as I'm aware and correct me if I'm wrong but we are now the Worlds Fastest Radial Tyre RB GTR Skyline and the Worlds Fastest H Pattern GTR, the only car in front of us now is AMS R35 GTR which has done a 8.28sec on radials. Its a bit hard to compare the new VR38 Powered R35's against the old school RB Powered R32, 33 , 34's, but we are gonna try beat that time and do it with a manual gearbox, no gay arse dual clutch auto for us :woot: . A Big thanks to the Race Bred Enterprises team and Godzilla Motorsport's Mark Jacobsen with out your efforts this would not have been achievable.

I am still going through the footage still gotta make a compilation Vids but here's some pics and a quick speedo vid.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
