nismoR34 - i think rob was just giving you shit for fun, not saying your wrong in pointing it out.. but on the other note - you'd have to be stupid to read "dail up 8000rpm" and then go and actually do it.... however, i guess some people take everything they read here for gospel ..

Ok, I do apologise for posting saying 8000rpm was a good place to drop the clutch.

In a standard R33 GTS-T, I would still recommend around the 5000-6000rpm mark as this will ensure that the tyres break traction and can spin up quickly and efficiently.

A burnout will take of the same amount of tread as travelling the same distance while rolling. The fact that you aren't moving anywhere doesn't make a difference.

Just a quick note to draggers who wanna warm tyres before running. Everyday street tyres are designed to operate most effectivly at a specific temperature. If the tyre heats to a point past this temperature, you will actually lose traction as the tyres have been slicked up.

I found that on street tyres, a burnout really isn't necessary as these tyres are designed to work better at a colder temperature rather than hotter. If you really wanna do one, simply a quick burnout without the brake would be sufficient.

That is all...

well stated!

I agree that street tyres are generally a waste of time for burnouts [tyre warming] - now tell all the officials at the various drag strips because they expect you to do one, though I suspect they just want to please the crowd or something...

I do need new tyres though - and a clutch!

Handbrake will simply apply more braking to the rear wheels making your engine need to work harder to fight against it. THe brake pedal has more bias toward the front brakes, hence better for rear end to spin. Try getting a line locker to prevent rear brakes from working at all. It makes burnouts a breeze. Then again, they already are, and also, tyres are expensive.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
