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.

    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
