epic, cant wait for that dvd, how many decent power cars where there?

yea there was quite a few decent powered cars out there

=)

was it one o the 5 cars that drove home?

nop, broke a rear shaft near the end of the 2 days

=)

Nope, but it did back to back runs for the 2 days...the stock rear shafts reached their limit.

=)

LOL Pete! Plenty died after 1 run, some lasted two :D

Was good to see this car in person. Gearchanges were just silly, that alone is worth 20k!

Needs some work round the launches to get outta the hole better and it'll be ridiculously fast!

Even i was a casualty on my last run, but it was expected :D

a bit more seat time should do the trick =)

This thing between gears was just crazy.

Fkn LOVE it.

=)

It failed to run a 10.

and broke a front diff :angry:

Hmmm i think everyone had problems i guess thats the game you want to go fast well things will always break.

It was a real good event held by Andrew love to see more of it through the year.

The powertune R34 Gtr was amazing to watch - good work guys and the owner of course

Yeah busted front diff, well and truly fked :D

Anthony you need more RPM on launch. From what i could see it was just a matter of bogging down really. Bit of wheelspin to get the front wheels pulling and you'll be set ;)

i think i needed less rpm because i was still wheel spinning

More RPM! hehe. A little wheelspin in a GTR gets the fronts get in on the act unless you are forcing it via a controller?

From the outside it certainly wasn't turning the tyres much at all, it should move the fist 5m quickly as if it was about to go cut-cat style but then bog a bit. That was when it was dry though i mean.

When it was wet on both says there was lots of spin - but then everyone had the same issue :D

Brakes? :blink:

Why weren't you using antilag @ Motive like in the other vids?

I saw another vid of the car the other day on youtube where it was definately running A/L, or was it Nitrous? :merli:

Yeah, we noticed - and thoroughly enjoyed it ;)

lol =)

that launch in the motive shortclip i was using antilag. its been shortened thats why u miss out on hearing the exhaust popping. eventually i would like to try use nitrous on a bigger turbo.

=)

Bakes, as in cooks them. Silly Ash :P

lol =)

THE POWERTUNE R34 IS THE DREAM GTR BOYS AND IT WAS A MONSTER TO SEE RUNNING ON THE AIRPORT EVEN THOUGH NONE OF US COULD PUT OUR CARS DOWN WELL ENOUGH TO RUN A GOOD TIME IAM SURE WE WILL ALL BE AT IT SOONER THEN LATER RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER ...WE HURT THE 2ND GEAR BUT ALL IS WELL...

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
