If you two don't knock off the whoring in threads outside of the wasteland - you are both going to see some resulting action being taken that you probably won't like.

Enough is enough guys. People have had enough of it.

2001 V-spec 2 HKS cam gears , nismo twin plate clutch ,HKS front pipe , Veilside Titanium 3.5inch exhaust , Apexi power fc ,Apexi pod filters , HKS hypermax 2 coilovers, ACPT carbon drive shaft thats about it i think stock engine turbos and fuel system, it had 260awkw @ 15psi ran a 12.2 @116mph with stock rims with 245 tyres that were way past their use by date were as hard as a rock best 60ft time i could get was 1.98sec this was done at the townsville drag strip possibly the worst prepped track in australia

no offence and I debated with myself for a while before posting this( waits for some noob to edit quote that line), but it the way you are driving the car, I have an 11.13 @ 123 mph in my 32, and 11.8 @ 118mph in the 34 ( I have only dragged the 34 once on someone elses setup ) so a 122mph should be a mid 11, read the how to launch your GTR thread and practice

A mate ran a 12.3 @ 110 with his R34 vspec. Mods at the time were a twin plate exedy clutch, power fc, AVCR and a street tune to 1kg/cm boost. Estimated to be about 230kw atw. It was in the middle of summer and his tyres were shagged as well I believe.

this sounds impossible to be honest,

people are saying they just rev dumped first which i did and smacked every gear

i started the "how to launch your gtr" thread haha its good getting everyones opinions

Well its not. He was consistent and ran 12.3's repeatadly. I know his reaction times are always good too, and he is pretty brutal with the car.

I left out that he has an 80mm titanium exhaust on it too. At the time I'm pretty sure thats it for mods

I've read that 11's are possible on stock low mounts if your willing to lean on them to the point of breakage.

Turns out that it was 111mph too:

I thought side step and dumping were the same thing

Side steo being - you move your foot to the left of the clutch resulting in stepping off instantly

Dumping - you lift your foot straight off

Besides, all you guys averaging 1.9 60' times need to get a better launch. Should be getting 1.6 60'

This guy knows stuff!!!

And I keep telling people it's all in the first few seconds of getting outta the hole that will seperate you from that average time to that great time.

I'm .1 off a 1.6 :D

if i can hear correctly.. hes ranging from 12.3 to 12.7

i can see hes trying to side step instead of dumping which was causing smoke

In other runs last year he was doing 12.3 to 12.4.

The more recent youtube footage taken this year is slower due to problems with the car not running right. An intermittent ecu fault would make his tune go rich and drop ignition to cylinders occasionally.

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
