he doesnt just do VLs either

i would seriously recommend him

da guy knows what his on about and his a nice guy to get along with never bullshits with u and never ****s u around...

very professional at what he does..

ive seen R33s 180s silvias 200sx a his work shop before and all happy customers as well..

but yeh.. i guess that sort of stuff is all personal choose anyway

What has that got to so with what i said?

r31 nismoid

u ever been in a car quicker then a 12 sec pass?

Yeah, i can most certainly say i have. On more than one occasion too.

And if it wasnt for a sticky set of tyres on the rear end (read:not street legal tyres)

Then the ride would have been full fo wheelspin and utterly boring as any car can smoke a set or treads.

Dont get me wrong, i just see no value in a car that you cant drive to it's fullest without using slicks, or sitting at the start line at the drags for 3-4second spooling your turbo, where-by means even if you ran a 10, you'd have been hosed anyhow by a 12 sec car.

This may seem like a stupid question - but indulge me...

Why do the VLs 'spool' at the start line?  

Or, more to the point, why do they take so long to 'spool'?

To get the power up on the stall converter so they leave the line with as much power/boost as possible.

Or by using a transbrake which has a similar principle.

If they didnt sit there for so long, and just went like every other car, then they'd be running nowhere near the times they do.

Hence why if i can go at the green in my car with no spooling, run a 12...

A VL sits there for 3-4 seconds after the green spooling... runs a 10

Then technically (in my eyes) no matter how fast it went... i would still be at the finish line before it :aroused: and hence the winner of a drag.

But everytime i say that it kicks up a stink, so im sitting back, waiting for the stink :cheers:

Coz they run big bush bearing turbos, high stall autos and transbrakes. They need to sit on the line to get onto boost, onto their highstall and then they release the transbrake and take off. If u were to take off like a normal car, the car would spit and fart and not do to much

They can spool up long before the light go's green and just release the transbrake on the green, but often on test and tune days they dont bother and just spool up and check gauges etc.

Doesnt matter who crosses the line first imho, its a race against technical barriers and the time on the slip.

INASNT.. do me a favour man

go home tonite...

rent ur self 2 fast 2 furious.. get out ur bottle of lube...

and pretend ur a hardcore street racer...

and dont talk no more.. cause ur just a dick head..

obvioulsy u never been in a quick VL if u think it really takes us 3 minutes to start spooling.. at calder.. we usually let the ricer take of b4 we even start spooling we then hit da trans break or stally what ever they got.. get it to da right about of boost.. make sure were making as much power as we possibly can to take off with..

so really.. if you dont know what ur talking about.. just go watch ur movies.. and then jump in ur 14 sec car and take cnrs ok

...

thanks

so im not starting an argument with u

cause im only gonna get banned again and i cbf creating a new account

It seems you've got a REALLY short memory...

Enjoy making your new account :thumbsup:

Oh, and just a tip, next time you and your full sik bro's are at calder, just get out your stopwatch and see just how long they sit there after the green.

I think you'll be pleasantly amazed.

who the hell are you man, i've never heard so much crap in my life, if you wanna spend about a hundred grand on traumatics and trans brakes and stall converters and 9 inch diffs and ladder bars and then have someone drive your car around on a trailer go ahead, what a waste, you obviously don't understand the dynamics of a skyline when you drive a boat with wheels, VL commondores are the worst handling of all, they were designed to have a bench seat in the front so they were all given really soft spongy front springs then the bench seat was canned but they still got floaty boat suspension, have fun at calder dickhead, enjoy the drive their on the back of a trailer, i'd rather drive mine there do a high 11 and drive home and only spend about 30 grand to have a quick daily driver instead of a trailer bound strip basher.

Happy driving dumbass

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
