300Kw Unopened 25 Club...

[ARTZ]

good tyres hey, next on my todo list..nankangs not holding on

as for everybody doing their short drives and complaining that their car runs crappy..take a nice long (500kms at least) drive on the weekend every month or 2...does wonders for your engine..

If you have ever opened up a motor thats been run hot and hard you will see how clean they are..

problem is all the short drives everything tends to carbon/gum up over time..getting it hot and burning off all that gum can be as easy as a long drive, fill the tank with premium add a bottle of injector cleaner and drive till its empty..fill it up again and drive home..It can do wonders..alternatively just do donuts in the carpark for an hour...If your really fussy when you get back throw a bottle of oil flush in then change the oil too...

If your talking about the car listed in your sig, you have shit tires! LOL!

Mine will hold all the way through second gear, and if theres a fat ass in the back it will be not to bad in 1st either (if i have a full car, 1st gear from 1500rpm will hold all the way through. Pretty neat feeling actually.) 255/17 Adrenaline. 280-300odd dyno dependant killerwasps. GT30 .82 @ 17psi.

mine seems to have a very table top torque delivery, when it hits 5000rpm it pulls very hard, feels like it would keep pulling to 8000rpm if it could, but i do have some crappy tyres also, plus tein coilovers dont absorb bumps that great, slightly rough road = sideways action

needs some fat biatches in the back seat i think but i want my back seats to remain dry... lol

LOL! Funny you mention that, as Lithium always said that the higher mine revved the harder it seemed to pull, and it really really takes off after 4500rpm. Makes full boost from 3200-3700odd gear dependant.

This is the best example i could find. 1st one is 2nd from 2500rpm.. 2nd is self explanatory. I have Teins in mine too, and as you can see the road is rather bumpy. Seems to cope pretty well! My last day in NZ in May before moving to Perth. Poor Skyline sitting in a garage not getting loved

Everyone loves VIDEOS!!

what about third gear from 3000rpm on a good road, but i know what you mean, third is my only gear that will hold power down, and i can feel its just holding on too.

3rd fries too... So no good... And I am only at E54 on low boost... So if it's frying now it's only going to get better :Pl

just love that gt30 spooling up, nice package too, looked like you didnt need that fat chicks in that one lol

[34GeeTeeTee]

The gt30 sounds awesome! My 3037 sounds nuts

[On Edge]

Get some 255 or 265 quality tyres on the back none of this poser tire rubbish, power ain't worth shit if you can't use it

Good call! I normally run decent 265s but the dyno date come up fast and all I had was some 235s so I am sure a nice soft 265 will help

I don't like stretch, or stance etc... My car is legal height and quiet az... I just have crap rubber at the moment and it's makes 300+ unusable, yet sooooo amusing! Never felt anything like it!

JEM put so many safety measures in place too so I can be confident with the car (unlike my last idiot that tuned the car and is now going out of business........ Well I think and hope)...

Good on ya, as long as you know how things should be.

Unlike others who complain they can't get traction who coincidently have stretched cheap rubber lol with rims out the guards, tough is a car where performance isn't compromised by fads

[34GeeTeeTee]

I like your thinking.... I am sick of the "moar low" and "needs spacers" comments.... Needs good rubber and some driving ability and that's it!!!

I like function over form

Form is function

[34GeeTeeTee]

Form is function

Your hurting my brain

On topic and on the most recent topic, who is using cheap YET grippy tyres on their 300+ machines, I'm talking RSR, 123s, Ku36 etc.... I dunno which one to get, I'm a bit broke after the whole build and need a temporary solution

[On Edge]

I have 255 adrenalines that are good, when worn will not hesitate to put rsrs to compliment my front rsrs

i run 300+ rwkw with stretch, rims outside the guards, low and still have traction.... it's all in the setup

[On Edge]

Specs Joe, you seems to always defy the rules haha

wasnt complaining. .just a statement, its a learning curve and its one thing at a time, and on a budget, my tyres and wheels are flush and fill the arches like they should,

i will move onto the traction when the power improvements are finished and it will remain low, full and with 265 ku36's on its fat arse thankyou very much..

lol... i seem to get around 15/100 across a tank daily driving with 98 ron

on e85 think more 20/100

Wow 20/100?! On eflex my economy is around 15.7/100 but id imagine the higher the ethanol content the higher the consumption

Wasn't referring to you but your set-up is going along nicely
