i'm sure erik means well - i hope he's learned quite alot about cars because from the sounds of things we've had the same discussions over icq and msn! hahaha

not the best comparison photos, but you get some idea...

I can't quantify exactly how many seconds the suspension mods have given me, but from my first time down to my 3rd time down i've taken off about 4 to 5 seconds.

This has been with the aid of both suspension, power and an excellent choice of tyres ;) i've increased perhaps 10-15kw at the wheels? since my first time down - but i'm limited to my damn stock turbo!!!

Are you after a drag setup or a circuit setup? i can give you some advice on circuit setup for the GTT if you're interested...i've had 2 goes at and im nearly there!!!

I'm more interested in not getting flogged by chipped commodores! Seriously though, I'd be interested in doing a few 400 runs...maybe not track, I don't want to push my luck with this setup just yet. Overall though it's my daily driver, so it's more of a street application with hints of fun ;)

lol.. hehe..

believe it erika ;) there was nothing especially crazy about the car (just the driver maybe :)).. and Dale's was similar at the time.. see nismor34 had the better time, but then he came over and said "you should adjust the timing a bit might make a diff".. did it there on the spot and then 5 mins later r34gtt-r got a better time. but it was all good fun. It was a few months ago when i lived in melb. oh it had a carbon fibre bonnet too (woop).

i don't see why you couldn't get that time if a stock 33 can get low 14's.. with the NEO engine which is slightly more powerful (i think its 205kw fly stock as opposed to 175kw for a 33). The engine is only a few years old too so will prolly be running smoother than a 10 year old 33 as well.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
