Dont worry brah... I have seen this situation before... you'll get it running again... even if you have to overnight parts from japan

But I don't have my car anymore.

Its sold to import monster lol

I'll jog your memory...

You were reported to have died on 1 May 1994, as a result of your car crashing into a concrete barrier while you were leading the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Italy.

as a result of your injuries and now crispy brown skin, you decided to hide away from all the attention as a young sri lankan man living in Australia... you adopted the name Aaron, because it was the first name in the book.

From here you continued to live undercover as a simple car enthusiast, however at one fateful sandown trackday, your raw talent simply could not be hidden!

Here you kept up with far more powerful cars including stagea's skylines, ferraris, radicals, zonda's, pagani's and mclarens.

It was at this point that I realised that I am extremely bored at work... and that YOU... MUST... BE... SENNA...

don't forget as I read on jalopnic this week

lost his virginity to a fat Prostitute at age 13..

Senna that is

I beg to differ, I wAs keeping up fine with the 240kw plus cars down the straight at sandown. It's a very under estimated car

Given above 150kph, is when they start to pull away

Even gave Scott a run for is money in the 350kw Stagea. He only pulled away at 120kph.

Hence why he bought one lol

I want to see this first hand. Not saying I don't believe you

Tonight

Your car vs say Simon/Birds

Roll on from say 70km/h. That's about the exit speed at Sandown onto the coming straight

pulled away at 120...so the start of the straight?

who doing 70 on the start there ,

I'm exiting the corner at around 100-110....

was painfull at rexmas,

got out of the corner great full power down the straight,

Chris Madden going past around 50-60 km/h faster...damn that 330kw...

you are different to other amatuer drivers martin

If you were talking about overtaking me on the straight, that's because I was trying my hardest not to let my engine lean out ;)

Really need to fix that...

Edit:

I wonder if that could have been the cause of the lower power figure on the last tune...

Assuming that a single dyno pull in 4th gear doesn't completely suck all the pressure out of the system but only drops it slowly towards the end... So the upper part of my rev range could have been running at say 80% of the fuel pressure it should be running at. If it was consistant, then that would have been included/accounted for in the tune right?

Pulling hard through 2nd / 3rd / 4th was leaning it to the point of misfire / detonation, so not a great feeling on the straight.

I THINK that the Walbro 255 is affected more by a lower voltage source than a stock pump or the bosch 040 that was in there beforehand... So if I wire up a direct feed to it with a relay coming off the ECU wire, it should pump more...

But will it also have a 100% speed whine all of the time instead of varying at Idle speeds? aka, stupidly loud?

I was more so talking about corner speed of that turn before the straight

Me?

Nah blue wrx, told me 230kw. If its false then that would explain it

My GTS-T is currently running it's 252kw safe tune...we can test this "Evo is the fastest car in the world" theory tonight...but I think I know the answer already. Short gearing means SFA in a rolling drag, unless you have a substantially higher redline than me and can carry the gear for longer...it just means I have to drop down a gear to be as short as you, comprende? You get the impression that 4th gear is fast going onto the freeway because it's probably the same ratio as 3rd in a Skyline...nothing Criss Angel about it.

On an unrelated note, there's a golf r that always fangs it past my work every day at about this time... God damn they sound sick on gear change with an exhaust, brrrrraaaaaaa CRACK brrraaaaaaaaaaaaa CRACK brrrrraaaa

That driver should be considerate and yell 'FORE!' before fanging it past your work.

How ironic that you would say that... Look what is across the road from my workplace...

Boss's Porsche Boxster has been hit a few times by stray balls...

Meh, its only a Boxster...

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
