Leewah on here is running 526rwkw with big ass single garrett and shot of NOS and has ran a 10.6 1/4.  

Congrats on the big number. Don't forget peoples that the run was done in Shootout mode too which generally speaking will give a slightly higher reading than a dyno run on a calibrated setting.

My run was done on the standard settings for DD dyno. Shootout mode would have produced a bigger number.

The best for my car so far was a 10.47@137MPH when it only had 446rwkw. We have not had a clean NOS run yet as the clutch was slipping when we went out last. The best so far with the NOS was a 10.7@132MPH but we have seen a MPH of 140 but the time was still only a 10.7 coz I bogged the launch :P

Good luck at the track and hope to see some good times.

Merli - haha... your signature is cracking me up...  

how long are you planning on haunting the poor bastard? :D

I was only going to leave it up for 2 days or so, but he pissed me off by being a gutless wonder and deleting the thread, so I might leave it for a bit longer :P

I say leave it till you see him driving a gemini around.

On that dyno run where did u have the nos come in?

the fact of the matter is if you can get confused between a black skyline and a white one you must be pretty dumb.

Mate, the 'black' car in the video is BLUE! now who's confused :Oops:

Seriously though, they guys were a bit hard on you. But don't tell 'em to lighten up, then go and take their comments to heart and have a tantrum.

Wise words from a 20 year old kid from the UK, trying to tell an Australian Skylines Forum about one of the most famous GTRs in Australia  uh.gif

Yes i am 20, yes i'm from the UK. Wow, you really got me there.

What does my age have to do with it? I'm in my final year at uni and completely self dependent. I'm hardly what you'd call a 'kid'.

Granted i didn't know that skyline was one of the most famous in Australia, i didn't even know where it was from. As far as i'm concerned somebody posted some dyno results and i thought i'd add to the thread by adding that video - after all it was another skyline on another dyno.

... and you should really take your own advice. We didn't even flame you for it, we just commented how your post came out of nowhere and didn't really pertain to the thread at all.

You didn't need to flame me for it. Imagine you posted something interesting in a forum where you hardly know anyone and all of a sudden people are saying, "why the hell did you post that?"

You'd be a little peeved and a little embarrassed.

You're right, i didn't notice before but it is a very dark blue. Still, my point remains. I don't see how people were getting confused between "the skyline in the pics" and "the skyline in the vid", or "the dark skyline" and "the white skyline".

:)

Anyways, i'm not here to make enemies. Maybe i was out of order, maybe they were out of order. It's just a stupid argument at the end of the day.

Nothing more to say.

You are right... Arguing on the internet is like competing in the special Olympics. You may win, but you are still retarded...

Thanks for the dyno clip.

Guys the dyno is correct, it has not been edited on photoshop or anything like that. He is running GT2530 turbos and there is no nos kit on it.

I think for that run of 526 kws they used a massive amount of boost 25+psi just to break the 500kw barrier. It is normally setup for 450kws or something like that.

And stacy is the guys girlfriend who the car is registered through.

GT2530s? No nitrous? 526kw@wheels? I hate to be the first one to say it, but...... no.

If 526kw is a real figure, he should clear 140mph at Eastern Creek, and dip into 9s, and I predict that isn't going to happen with just GT2530s and no nitrous.

I'd love to see it run though and prove me wrong :(:)

Damo, i think your friend should book himself in as an entrant for the next nobel prize for physics, as he sure hell have proven the laws of basic aero-physic are wrong. 526kw@w

on those turbos? Some how i don't think so.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
