When the AWD glide was still in my car I was able to run 10.4 not using the transbrake with a real lazy footbraked 1.7 60ft launch. Tried the transbrake few times and it just spun as I didn't warm up the rear tyres in my 33GTR.

Powerglide puts the power down so smoothly compared to a manual. Defienatley had a high 9sec pass with a decent launch. Power plant was a Rb26 with hks 2530's with a manual normally make about 600awhp.

Did you change back to the manual??? What happened to the box?

Already adapted to suit the RB block bolt pattern, tranfercase and bolt straight in, considerably more than the 5K mentioned above.

Ive been looking into it.....(and still researching it)

A straight built 2spd powerglide or Turbo 400 to take serious power, yes $5K and less.

And GTRPSI my phone app didn't let me see you post

Add to that 5k for the box these parts that you will require also.

Custom length and spline output shaft to suit transfercase.

Fabricated sump to clear the drive shaft when the box is massively rotated

Suitable length and angle pick tube to put the oil filter at the bottom of the new fabricated sump.

The dip stick takes some messing around to get it at a suitable height for when the gearbox is rotated.

Decent torque converter can be $1000-2000.

Shifter

Transcooler ect ect

Pretty quickly it gets to 10-12K.

Exactly, and thats assuming you know what your doing......

Chuck this beast in! Perfect daily/quarter mile monster.

Rated for a lousy 750 hp. Waste of time for a "drag car".

@Ryan, have you thought about selling the output shafts and other bits as kits for GTR owners?

That way we could build up our own strengthened autos and just add the bits on to convert them to work with the GTR transfer case.

Would save everyone a shit load of development and you could recoupe some of your already made developement costs along the way.......

    • 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.
