Hey Guys,

Just wondering what sort of ET's are achivable with a Getrag 6 speed. Standard equipment in my R34 GTR, running the 3.5 ish diff ratio.

I ran 11.2 @ 129 at WB, then backed it up with a 130mph pass

Be curious to find out what other people have done. in the 34's, moded into earlier models, different diff ratios etc

Damn that's quick!

Best right now:

11.6 @124mph 330ish RWKW

More to come :D

Watch your youtube clip!

The difference between you and me is you can drive. I could never co-ordinate hand brake launches.

I did have problems with it jumping out of first gear as a result of the gear stick jumping around, but that was solved with a warrenty job on the clutch and more power.

Nice time Clayton!,

You have the MPH to get in the 10's!!! What was your 60 foot time? Mine was a 1.8, I think best I've ever got with the 34 and 32 was a 1.7 on road tyres.

Mine was shaking the stick a lot too! I'm bad :domokun:

I need to slip the clutch a little more (hate doing it) and find the sweet spot for revs, too low she bogs, to high as you saw, and it wheel spins first gear!!

Practice make perfect :D

I had all new engine, and clutch setup so it was re learn on the go haha!

I'm after a 10.5-10.9, I'll be happy with that! especially with how much I've emptied the wallet :/

The 11.2 was a 1.7 sixty foot, went 11.3 @ 124mph with a previous engine combo at a different track and that was also a 1.7 60".

feels like 1st gear is a bit short to make it to 60" as the 1.7's are few a far between, but drops the times in the deep. Just needed to string the 1.7 sixty with the 130mph and i might have gone close to a high 10.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
