Yeah, maybe Saturday or Sunday?

Can grab a steam cleaner for a few hours as well and give the seats a good going over :)Clean off the happy stains

Location of said 'happy' stains?

lol.

I dunno. Never dragged before and ive never done a "burn out" so wouldnt even know how to warm up the tyres. haha hooning does teach you things sometimes

I'd expect under 13 secs (but probably keep getting 2-3 sec 60footers)

Organic clutch? It's not nice to it but it gets you away with minimal wheel spin, revs up to 4-5k and slip the shit out of it though first til about 4k then let it fully grip and shift the rest as normal.

Keeps engine in a decent torque region and isn't a huge sudden wheel spin inducing shock like a clutch dump.

evos not enough torque to torque steer

this, they dont make much torque (dat 2L 4 banger lyf) but make up for it with short ass gearing.

a stock one has like 300nm, standard modded ones with an upgraded turbo do ~450nm or so

lol nope. My wheels skip even just trying to drive off at the lights. dat 4-puck clutch plus +100NM @ 2,000rpm in FWD.

i got the kinugawa kit, has worked flawlessly so far.

Noice. Cheapest I see on fleabay is $65 +$30 shipping, though? Kinugawa web I see it for $45 (USD presumably) without shipping. But still relatively cheap, and have read that they are sweet for the purpose as you say (their turbos on the otherhand... lolz)

:(

the emo launches hard if you do that, as soon as you start slipping the clutch you can hear the turbo start spooling and you are off.

6k clutch dumps are just too violent on the driveline personally, id rather replace a clutch than a gearbox, diff or transfer case.

i got it from ebay, what ever the price was at the time, fast postage and the kit comes with everything required.

their turbos dont seem to be that bad for skylines, for the emos you pretty much want to stick to the high flow stock ones unless chasing big KW numbers as nothing else gives as good response/driving feel.

    • 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?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
