hi guys

im currently building an r34 gtt with an rb26/30 in it. purely for street/strip duty

the car is stripped

will be seam welded thru the whole cabin, boot, around the doors and the engine bay

have mickey thompson street slicks

and around 700hp at the wheels

full weld in cage by brown davis

it currently has hsd hr racing coilovers but i want to know what i need to have for quarter mile drag racing as these coilovers are really hard better suited for drifting

it will have a fairly large brake setup at the front and just something standard size on the back so i can fit small wheels on the back.

basically

what arms/bracing will i need?

what spring/shocks/coilovers will i need?

what diff do u recomend i have a kaaz 1.5way atm but if i need to change then i will

car is manual atm but i will be building an auto for it later

all details will be greatly appreciated

thanks

julz

Mate i have run 8.9 @ 159 in a r32 gtr with completly stock suspension.

For a rear wheel drive car id put some stock suspension in the front and some 2 way adustable coil overs in the back so you can adjust the bump and rebound.

Hope this helps

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
