Are you sure that the owners of OBEHVE and Manual ran those times you quoted as I'm pretty sure Mick Stanic was driving OBEHVE when it ran its best time and Rob from CREATD was driving Manual ,I read somewhere that the best time OBEHVE has ran with the owner driving it was a mid 12 but I could be wrong

I'm very very new to the drags my first time was May this year, I'm pretty sure if I had someone more experienced drive my car the times would be a lot better but where's the fun in that

Also I have not compared my car to any of those cars at all, I'd just like to know what size slicks we can use hahahaha

Buster: was just curious at what tyres you were using and what 60ft's you were obtaining. The new track at willowbank is so much better for the first 330ft but like you, when i select 4th i still spin the wheels for that second or so.

In regards to slicks, i know a little bit. Enough knowledge to keep me going.

Im not sure who ran the time in OBHAVE but recently in full st trim it ran a 10.9 in Melb.

The creatd motorsport skyline was also run recently in melb. From what the info i have found its the fastest manual rb25 skyline in aus with the 11.16 @ 126mph. Info can be found at www.fullboost.com.au.

I'll let you know soon what slicks we can fit as i am trying to find this info out my self too.

Yep we do. Radial and non-radial tyres dont work together. They cross in direction and you have no steering capabilities. You can fit front runners (non-radial tyres) to your space saver rim and fit them up front. How ever there is a place up here in QLD that makes the rims for Skylines. I will get the name once my mechanic re-opens. Same black stockies used on NO-JOB @ Jamboree this year.

Harun.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
