ok well i got a r32 rb20 auto. standard box with a few engine mods nothing major.

i raced my skyline at heathcote raceway and got shocking times of 16s and 17s because of wheel spin.

i didn have slicks or anyting on just "high Perfrormance" street tyres.

Main reason i couldnt get traction was i didn have enough time to do a warm up burnout.

Any of you guys with an auto out there got any ideas on how i can get wheells to spin alot quicker than what they did!!!

I mean they start sloooowly spin when turbo spools up but in the end i dont got enough time to get them smoking.

so any tricks on how to get them going?

hmm.

I would have thought my rb25det auto stagea would be into the 13's regardless of tyre heat. :whistling:

17's is slow. as a stocker (10psi + catback exhaust) my stag was high 15's and low 16's.

now with 400hp engine (2x as strong as stock) Id be into 13's surely and Id hope 12's with some practice.

perhaps you need a line locker kit? to lock the front brakes but release the rears?

hold brakes down front, rears spin and heat up.

could be too that your suspension isnt as well setup as it could be.....

plus the rb20det auto isnt putting out a huge amount of power anyways.......

I never do a huge burnout on street rubber, just enough to dry the tyres out IF you have to drive over the water patch.

No point otherwise, heating them up makes them useless.

I raced a fair bit on 225 street tyres, the best 60ft i could get with 220rwkw was 1.8, which wasn't too bad, no big burnout at all.

IMO you need to learn to load up the auto, either way auto + RB20 = 15-16 sec IMO, so you are about right

i got ur usual mods such as fmic, bov, boosted to 10psi pod, an timing advanced a tad

it just seems as thomy street tyres are to grippy or something?? because i roled up to the line, put it in 1st and brakes fully on and accel full on at wheels just spun. thats on a smooth race strip.

i have no hope in hell on bitumen!

i have 17x10 at the rear would this be affecting it?

theres your problem. rev to about 2.5-3k. dont full throttle till you sidestep the brake. also yank on the handbrake to stop the wheel spin and then drop it as you launch

side step = take your foot off.

have it in 1st, slowly come up and stage nice and shallow, one staged, keep your foot hard on the brake, bring throttle/rpm up to just before you get wheelspin (or as said above, pull handbrake on hard) experiment with throttle position and rpm till you find just the right spot.

Nail the throttle, take your foot off the brake and drop the handbrake all at the same time just as the last orange lights, and 16s to 17s sounds about right to me, I'm not sure what you were expecting?

When mine was auto it would start a burnout a lot easier if i bounced on and off the brakes a bit. One day i realised i didn't want the auto any more and i was going to put my manual conversion in so i did some D bangers to send the auto off in style, they worked heaps well! Just don't expect the auto to last more than a few times! :P

HAHA I did exactly the same thing back when I had my R31 :( that auto had a painfull death!! LOL

I find that racing on 1/4 mile with big rims is useless(ie 17" or 18").... your not gona get grip!!

with my r31, I ran it on 15" Stokies with 225 wide street tyres (Continental's)

my first few runs i was skating all of 1st and 2nd.... and running only high 14's... the trick is to DEFLATE YOUR TYRES!!!!

that's why you need a bigger profile tyre on a smaller size rim..... so then you have room to deflate them - I had mine down to 16psi which then gave me a 13.8sec pass!! and this is with a manual taking off really hard at 5000rpm!! :thumbsup: you will never feel your car launch like that on the street (unless in a GTR)

firstly get yourself some 15" or 16" stokies with 225 or 235 tyres on there, and only have about 16psi in em - your not gona get a good time on 17" or 18" wheels.

start your burnout on the water... rev out 1st gear.... hit second (turbo on 10psi your car should be able to rev out 2nd no problem!!), and once second gets up high in the revs... let off the brakes a little and slowly roll forward off the water while still giving it heaps (keep it above 4500rpms at least) Then you'll see some SMOKE!!!

tyres will be warm - take off as described above, hold it on approx 2000-2500rpms just before you start wheelspin - and I guarantee you'll get a much faster pass......

    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
