Our lite weight is the only advantage we have...So I have makde it even liter on myne.( i actually thought of buying carbon doors too at one stage but its definatley street illegal in NSW )

Power up mods wont really help as we 34's be skidding when 2 much power. So to get some grip some Expensive 18 by 9inch( or wider if u can find/fit) wheels at back and nicely tuned suspension. But then again really depends on many conditions at time of race including weather and such.

Any ways good luck with the race and Hopefully you will enjoy the carbon bornet as much as i did... :)

"May the bornet be part of your Victory"

Wow i just read the whole thing to kill time...Very interesting.

Was just adding my 2c earlier but after I read all I realised its one serious 34 u r building there. I first thought it was for just Mild mods but yourse is going to be ONE SERIOUSLY AWSOMELY WILD 34 there...!

And wow 12inches cool.

Umm mate he is drag racing. Not circuit.

He won't be running 18" rims, more likely something around 16" and putting some nice big drag rubber on, and certianly a bit wider than 9" :D

Low profile 18" tyres are not going to be much use at all, plus added weight of the rims, not doing anyone favours.

yeah figured it just then too hehe

Nice topic by the ways u got lots of hits and replys on this "who would be faster"

"Power up mods wont really help as we 34's be skidding when 2 much power" Yeah i agree, dont waste your time with the 30/25

f**k lucky u got involved in my thread mate,.

just on ur advise im gonna scrap the whole project.

idiot

if u read correctly it says 26/30 dude

Wow someone won lotto...

With awd the gtr can launch harder and get his turbo's spooln quicker? and I'm guessing after the 34 gets traction It'll catch up and maybe pass the gtr?

Has anyone thought of calling it a tie yet? lol

not really dude, just work hard every day, i dont remember what it feels like to have a day off, but thats what it takes to have the cash to blow on the cars and house u know.

the gtr is also single turbo.

and no there will be no tie!!!

If you get the suspension and weight transfer sorted you will spank a gtr mate. The quickest drag cars on the planet are rear wheel drive for good reason. WEIGHT.

The cream can hook up with over 8000 hp. With a bit of experimentation you should be able to succesfully launch a rwd skyline.

Have you thought about aerodynamics?? You could have a look at getting the east bear front + rear under body carbon fiber diffusers, although they wouldn't come into play until about half way down the track..

hay mate got most of the aero stuff sorted.

have a tommy kaira front bar for the street and a carbon bomex bar for the track,

i havnt decided which one to modify yet but i have, carbon canards, carbon front splitter, and im looking at a r34 gtr rear diffuser also.

I think he was just being sarcastic man...

yeah i know lol

but im a smart ass so i like to have the last word :D

You haven't considered the obvious problem comparing an 8000hp top fueler with a 700hp "street" car?

My money is still on the GTR.

Youtube "fast skyline" and there will be dozens of vidoes of quick Skylines, 95% of which will be GTRs, and they'll make up 100% of the really, really fast "street" cars.

Sure there will be dozens of them, but the fastest 1/4 mile skyline in the world right now is a gtst and it resides in England.

Average street car is always going to get its arse handed to it by an awd but a prepped track car is a different animal and I believe that is what the original poster was talking about.

    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.
