Thats the point....I still say 23.1 in my car isnt that quick. Its two seconds off where it should be. If that 23.1 was a 21.1 then I would happy where the gun tag...but as is that times sells the car short!

I'd be happy with a 23.1 at Sandown. Still a clear sec quicker than me. Not sure where my time has gone on that track?

I carry enough speed at turn 6 kink (almost slide through there) and brake as late as possible at nearly every corner...

I think it's just drive out of the corners there that I struggle with and bouncing ripple strips may not be the best approach.

If you think that a 23.1 sells it short i'm looking forward to what comes next with your car. :) You've been right about almost everything that a rwd skyline (non-Big Red haha) is capable of on semi's so a 21 isn't out of the question.

Ok in car vids are up....

First is my new PB lap....the fist pump at the start finish line at the start of the lap was when I saw a high 47 flash up on my previous lap :)

and this is a collection of some overtaking. First part is me trying to overtake a big single turbo R34 down the straight only to be passed like I was standing still by a 6.6ltr V8 powered 260Z :) ....middle part is me catching and passing a GT3 cup car and last part is an ex(?)-V8 supercar - we came out of the last corner side by side only for him to pull away down the straight using ubber killerwasps. Two corners later his lead disppeared thanks to corner speed and I was able to overtake.

Enjoy :D

Well done Ant, lookiing at those vids I can see why your doing the times you are doing, very smooth and the car looks very stable in the high speed corners, noticed your holding flat through turn 3 and hayshed, good stuff....

Not far from a 1:46 now... Keep up the good work.....

I have some vids of me doing a 1:46, let me know if you want to compare the two...

Thanks for the kind words guys. I'd say that the vids make my driving look smoother than it felt in a few places! My biggest issues on the day were pulling the car up for Honda as I had the ABS kick in a few times and balancing the power around the 2nd last corner.

Given my times on the day I'd say that the car is capable of a high 46 on a perfect lap. Even with the stocky suspension I have been taking turn 3 flat, but since the suspn upgrades the car has felt stable enough to take hayshed flat too. This stability allowed me to make gains (by seat of the pants feel anyway!) around most of the corners but in particular I'd say Southern loop and lukie heights were by the biggest margins.

I would love a copy of your 46 lap Jack as it would interesting to compare, despite our firepower differences ;) ....is it available on youtube?

Hey ant, here you go:

http://sau.ferni.net/Jacksvids/PI_31_03_07a2.wmv

Right click 'save as'.

Minimize and play them together with your YouTube vid.

I did my best to play them together from the start/finish line, but it's a bit hard as you cannot press play simultaneously.

Enjoy!

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      Ogura orc1000f vs Osg tr2cd vs Osg r3c experiences, max torque/max hp?

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      By uchoa · Posted

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
