Golgo did a 12.9 with slipping clutch (single plate) in 1st and 2nd. Oh... and Sam was driving. My best time is a 13.0.

Ran 190awkw on Sunday - but was not going for high power - just wanted some fire :)

The car has an exhaust, pods and PFC - so pretty stock. Plus Leewah makes everything look underpowered. Nigel (Ice Perf) noted recently that the crank-angle sensor is way off tune (from before I owned the car). A set of cam-gears, a new clutch and a 'from scratch' tune should see some higher figures.

Not that I really care - still goes pretty darn quick when I need it too :)

Thanks for your concern though.

Oh - and Golgo is a guy, not a girl :D

Yeah - I was told I had cam gears (even have a reciept for them) yet had not had a chance (until very recently) to pull the cover off and take a peek. Seems that the dealer or previous owner may have removed them and not set the CAS up properly. Has more top-end than it should though.

AF ratio is OK - but O2 sensors are f*cked and as such the car has fuel economy on par with an ocean-liner.

Also - the dyno was set to run up to 200km/h - and my car peaks in 4th around 230/240km/h. But... no excuses to be made, the car simply is not as powerful as some other GTRs, and was never intended to be. It is driven and enjoyed every day, washed at least once a week - and makes a fabulous cruiser. All the while looking pretty pimp and blowing some nice flames :D

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.

      Factory oil temp sensor in a RS4V without gauges?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.

      R34 GTT AC short cycling ? Normal behaviour?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
