Yah when I spoke to him he was iching for a 13.4 :P

Nice time meggs. You must've left before I got there coz I dont remember seeing your car.

It was a last minute decision to go and I didnt plan to race. We got there late and didnt decide to run until about 8:45, then the burnout comp started, and I didnt get a go until about 9:40 (ended with 4 runs).

Best was a 13.803 @ 102.84 with 2.332 60'. I was very disappointed coz I ran a 13.83 @ 101.53 at Heathcote with less mods and crapper tyres. MPH is consitantly up tho, the lowest being 101.54, I just couldnt get the car off the line. My 60' times were dismal :throwup: and changes into 2nd were shocking :spew:

I've got a 13.4 begging somewhere, I can sence it :)

Current mods:

Blitz Front Pipe (For sale is anyone wants it)

Batbml Big arse cat.

Futsitubo Power Getter Exhaust (Silencer out of course)

Apexi Pod filter (Carbing style box almost ready to go in).

DrDrift boost valve set to just below boost cut, about 12 P.S.I

That's it.

Waiting in the wings are a Cusco 4.2 kg (!!!!) flywheel

HKS Cooler kit

Power FC.

Hoping to crack 12s with new Flywheel and Clutch, and anything after that is just a bonus.

PS. Times done on crappy "Wanli" tyres of unknown origin.

I have nothing to compare them against as I have never changed tyres before on the Skyline.

I can't say I can complain too much as they hook up really well on the street, and the 60 ft times speak for themselves....

Alright.

Run down of my Calder Park expedition.

Run 1. 13.737 @ 102.43 with 2.137 60 ft

Run 2. 13.831 @ 100.89 with 1.952 60 ft (missed third gear)

Run 3. 13.582 @ 102.49 with 1.999 60 ft

Run 4. 13.513 @ 102.50 with 1.987 60 ft

Run 5. 13.493 @ 102.42 with 1.963 60 ft

See attached time slip for last run.

I reckon that’s about as fast as she will go in the current set-up.

Cheers

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
