top work! hopefully seeya there. i managed to find a driver so all is well in the land of nod.

Cool.......if you've read previous threads you'd know that I'm a huge fan of 32 GTR's so I'm keen to check yours too Mark.

I had some tool in a wine red R33 with GTR rear spoiler pull out in front of me (not to mention 2 cars coming the other way, which both had to brake not to hit him) coming down Kelly Rd this arvo. I didn't beep or give him the air horns, as he accelerated quickly and didn't actually cause me to brake.

When he turned off a few hundred metres down, I gave him a friendly Skyline too-toot (not a hard, long beeeeeeeeeeeeep as if I was abusing him), as the car looked pretty clean.

As I drove past I saw him stop in the side street as I went past, and he reversed back onto Kelly Rd and came after me.

He drove at well over 100km/h to catch up to me and overtook me on a solid white line.

He then came to a complete stop ahead of me in the middle of a one-lane road.

I came up behind him wondering wtf?, then slowly overtook him.

He then tore off left at the next T junction, glaring in my direction.

Damn there are some psychos around.

AHAHAHAHA I SEEN THAT EXACT SAME GUY SCREAMING DOWN KELLY RD HE WAS GOING ABOUT 160 i was in da side street sussin out a r32 with my friend lol.. his a tool and a half!

jenkies as if you would find trouble finding a driver for ya gtr. i mean if i didnt wanna take mine id be more than happy doing it for ya and it was only 2 years ago i woulda been more than happy to part with a decent some of cash just to go for a ride in 1.

o and by the way i want some double 32 gtr pics. red blue will look good as long as no one points out its the same colour as cop lights :thumbsup:

Yeh prob would have been me, can't remember seeing you tho, did i look at you??

Um ya kinda half did lol u were stretching at the time so u probly saw me but didnt realize it waz a skyline driving the other way.

Oh also as i turned left from daws rd onto south road there waz a silver 32 GTR waiting to turn right onto daws road. 2 young looking guys in it. Passenger saw me but the driver didnt.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
