hey

tried to launch my gtr for the first time today in lead up to a few hill climbs coming up,

the car is a 32 303awkw, -5 turbos twin carbon clutch

tried a few launch at 6000 - 6500 rpm but when you dumped the clutch the revs just fell so far down the rears slipped a tiny tiny amount then it took about 20m for it to hook up on the turbos. shiful if you ask me.

whats the best way of building up boost or something on the line so that when you drop it you atcaully are in the power zone...

are you side stepping it or just slow letting of the clutch??

i think the best way to get off the line is i rev the car to bout 7000-7500 rpm, as you bout to let go of the clutch o tend to ride it a LITTLE bit to ease the shock, rather then side steeping which is causes alot of shock through your drive train, which breaks boxs,

it takes abit of practice to get your launching right,

although if you got money a dont care bout blowing your gearbox, just side step it

Hey mate, my 32gtr had bout 320kw atw, i used to rev it til it was on the rev limiter(about 7950) theni used to let the throttle out a tiny bit, hold it at those revs for 5 secs(meant to be really important) then i dropped the clutch.

The thing used to bag the rears big time for a sec but then the fronts would grab and she would squat down and go like the clappers.

Sounds violent but thats how i did it all the time with mine.

The girls loved it lol

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
