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

So the tight right left b4 the straight

I'm in top of 2nd so for me that just under 110 (have to cut corner a bit and use heaps of curb on exit)

as soon as I have straighted out of corner I'm into 3rd

then 4th just after the start line

then make a sandwich and check my hair due to lack of acceleration for rest of straight..

haha yeah it was ok, easy to make your's like that though or even better

I'll be more than happy with just that.. Would like to start when I come back from Fiji.

Keeping the car stock? Ain't no body got time for that!

Trying my hardest not to but not fun.

Haha mine was a 3rd-4th pull, so i did not to bad 230awkw against 280rwkw

Also tephra mods ftmfw

Still remember that night

That's me being passenger in the white 34R

Richos cnr speeds according to his videos on that cnr is about 80km/h though :/

It's cheap to get 230awkw, especially if you have full exhaust already

main thing is to get a 8mr or 9 turbo

Standard exhaust still lol. I'm just gonna buy all the shit I need and let it gather dust and do it all at once

Just make sure when you buy an exhaust, buy a good branded one, all the shit ones (front pipe especially) tend to fit really badly or not at all

also this was the catback I ran, sounded really nice and not to loud

yeah I get the feeling that I'm a little quicker though slower corners, lighter car and less lag due to set up.

high speed tho whole different matter.

if I keep the 7 turbo and do the LICP, x3e exhaust, 8MR bov, 3port and tune how close will i get to 230?

just trying to ascertain how much i'll gain from the spend on the turbo

also for the lICP is it just the hotside that needs doing or both?

Intradasting

You got a vid with data overlay?

Even billywhiz's s14 cnr speed is about 70km/h

New SL is gross, r230 shape ftw

Alex, pics of shoes please! where'd you get them?

Got em from matches which is in uk.. Half price ad free shipping win!

They reckon 220 with cams. 8mr is only like $350

Is the Time %age gap between you and richo a lot lower on tighter tracks? and higher speed tracks he just blows you away?

Like... Haunted Hills vs PI, lol

    • 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. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
    • OK, now we are ready to get started. You need to remove the air boxes on each side for clearance. The cover is straightforward, undo the clips on the top and lift the front cover out of the rest of the housing. If it is tight you can remove the air filters first. The rear section of the airbox is trickier. On each side you need to remove the Air flow meter wiring which is held to the airbox with a clip; you need to get behind the clip on 2 sides if you want to remove it without breaking it - unclip the harder side and pull on the clip with medium force, then unclip the easier side and it should pop out The airbox is held onto the intake hose with a spring clamp; you need to get a flat bladed screwdriver behind the spring on both sides and pop them outwards. When you have got them in the right unclipped place they will stay there and the airbox slips out pretty freely. Put a rag in the intake to prevent anything getting dropped in there, and also to prevent you seeing that the turbo seal is leaking oil (as they do). Then. The top of the radiator is held by a steel plate, it is secured by 2x10mm and 2x12mm headed bolts . Remove them and remove the plate Also grab the bushings that hold the radiator to the plate on each side so they are not lost!
    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
