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!

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
