Oh also what was your rim and tyre size?

If anyone is interested this is how I convert, I'll assume the nismo is 4.4

KM/H x (1000/60)

This gives your speed in meters per minute.

pi x Diameter (in metres)

This will give you the cirucumference of your wheel in metres.

Speed / Circumference

This gives how many rpm of wheel per minute.

Then divide by diff ratio if in 4th.

Would 18s make it better or worse? Sorry full noob at this shit

I just re did it with 240x40x18 and it is 3955 vs 4010rpm for 110kph

Use these websites

http://www.rkm.com.au/calculators/calculator-circle-sphere.html

another calc

RPM = (diff ratio * (mph * 88)) / (tire circumfrance in inches / 12) * transmission 4th ratio

Just measured on my boost controller and powerfc rpm. Got 3410rpm and 3439rpm hitting 18psi in 4th. Dunno how accurate that is tho lol

Pretty damn accurate I'd say as it is using the CAS and it is low rpm (at high rpm the CAS signal can get inccurate in some cars).

Could you try 2nd gear just out of curiosity? as that is what I think most people are interested in.

Yea I'll give it a squirt tomorrow night haha

If its making that much boost in fourth its not really going to be a whole lot different in second. If anything it wont make full boost as the motor wont have the same ammount of load on it. Its always harder to get full boost in the lower gears.

I would be pretty happy with that sort of response. I know the T78 on our car makes full boost (22-23psi) by about 4500rpm and i built an R32 GTR a few years back that made about 5 psi of boost with a T78 at 2500rpm, full boost (again 22-23psi) by no later than 4000rpm. It was a pretty insane GTR to be honest and a bit of a freak engine.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
