Congrats on the time man, gives me something to look forward to when I take mine down the strip (assuming I can drive it properly :)) as I have a similar setup.

Once I can get it launching properly, hoping for mid to high 11 second pass... but yeah congratulations dude ;)

Congrats on getting into the 11's mate ;)

You just can't beat a mild street GT-R set-up. An 11sec street car that can put its power down with minimal fuss, you've got to love that. 4WD ='s sub 2.0 60's even if you can't drive to save yourself, like me :)

Just going off topic for a sec... Buster (Brett?) do you use your NT555's for general street driving? And if so, how do you rate them?

In japan i ran :

R33 GT-R(not vspec)

HKS Full Exhaust

17PSI

Maxxis Tyres 245's ( MA-v1) : they are really crap.

HKS Cam Gears

11.98 @ 118Mph

60Ft = cannot remember i think 1.8 ?

Standard ECU

button clutch

TRUST AIRPODS

with some good pair of tyres and uniglide and 22PSI i could easly do mid to low 11's.

Yep I've got one pair on my 17" Volk TE37's rear (everyday wheels), and another pair on the 16" R32 GTR rims (drag rims), I have found them to be great grip wise as what ever I can do at the stripp I can near do on the street if needed, though they wear out pretty damn fast

Thanks for the info Buster ;) As soon as funds are available NT555's will be going onto the rear. If they last me 2-3k, with a couple of drag meets mixed in, I'll be happy enough. The used pair you had for sale, they were 16's weren't they?

Sorry for the small hijack everyone... carry on :(

This is why I was surprised with the terminal speed of Mark's pass with GT2530s...

Damn!!! Just got back from calder, 12.00 @114mph......

I want that 11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, stock turbos running 1.1 bar, stock ecu.....

114mph with stock turbos and stock ECU :stupid::/:rofl:

And that's with 260rwkws (274rwkws in shootout mode) and Nismo twin plate clutch, fark that clutch can take a beating and keep biting hard...

hahaha thats cool, you should be able to get 3k out of them and a few drag meets for sure depends on how big a burnouts you do, yeah I'm selling the 16's

Thanks again mate. I'm not one for HUGE burnouts, but if that's what the Nittos need to stick, then so be it :D I'd like to try and squeeze 275/40/17's on the back.

Merli,

Mark is not running the 2530s no way near to their full potential yet.

2-3 mph difference between Jack's and Mark's run adds up to the 20-30 kw difference at the wheels.

High 120s is achievable with the 2530s and maybe that magical 130mph. That may be good enough for 10s on Nittos. :P

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
