Great meeting you guys. John thanks for your help with tyre pressures, have my head around it all now and can see the huge difference it makes if you dont get it right.

I ended up with a 1:24.5 in that last session with a bit a traffic so pretty bloody happy with that! Can't wait to see what this thing will do with a bit more experience and some fresh tyres.

Will chuck up a vid.

No times on natsoft?

Nah was untimed today. I am just going off my VBox GPS and getting the poor missus to sit and time me on the iphone as I go past. She was pretty good - GPS had 24.48... and I am gonna take those extra two hundredths hehe.

The VBox software rocks! Even tries to work out what track you have been at and auto sets start/finish and sectors. Heres a vid. Will need to try Johns advice and carry a bit more speed through the back straight kink - man he caught me quickly through there. I think it might have been the same lap cos I looked in the rear view when he was behind me.

Great day, though a little traffic on track. Good to see everyone out there.

I too got my fastest time in the last session. 1.25.6

Fastest car on the day....240z with racespace RB26 on -7 with front and rear diffuses on AO50's. 1.18.x. I was going flat out ~200kmh down the main straight, he rocketed right by me.

Paul I think that video is the first lap you passed me, I was right up behind you the lap after as the red porka bunched us up a turn 4. My tires had gone off and I was going to go into the pit, but saw you behind and thought it better to have a little fun whistling.gif

I turned into dandy road at the end with not grip at all, four wheel sideways action.

Fastest Lap

    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
