Hey guys I was wondering what's the record at the drags for the fastest low mounted turbo GTR in tas

Also what's the record for the most horsepower/killawasps out of a low mounted GTR?

I was on google trying to find some answers with no luck. Hope you guys can help me out. Cheers

I remember seeing it at the drags a couple or so more years ago, sweet car! did it get a 9 second pass down tas or just in the mainland, I seen on the ignigtion video that it made 502awkw is that the record for power? It's all I could find

In TAS its XRATED with a 10.2, twin low mount.

You most likely wont get the chance to beat that either as it is only 1/8th now.

He 'only' had 400kw, that was around 2008 from memory.

AUS wide, the drag time, I think it's still the HI Octane R32 GTR. with around 9.7
GAV from WA made 530?kw with twin GTX2863's lowmounted

The GTX series bolt up using standard -5,-10,2530,GTRS rear housing, the intake has to be custom fabricated as it is 3" & 2".... Some crowds are machining them into the standard compressor housings now, not as good performance wise as full gtx trim from reports, but gives full standard look/bolt up.

Nah I don't have a stagea, but I do have a garage

Is there anyway of finding out the records for the drag classes. Now I no that they won't have the recored I'm after but it would be worth a read to see what has been done there.

Also XRATED what kind of tyres did you use? Semi slicks, street tyres or drag slicks?

The car was raced as a true street car and on street legal tires, full exhaust etc (just like you would drive it every day).

As far as I'm aware, there was never any class/record for 'low mount, GTR skylines'... it's really just an enthusiasts recognition. The car was the first GTR in Tassie to break into the 10's, at the time it took home quickest AWD, fastest import and a few other local awards that were done through TDRA.

As far as I'm aware it's still one of the fastest 'original factory engine' eg unopened GTR passes made in Aus?

I'm still surprised there is still interest in it as most people choose to use they're skylines for different racing disciplines.

Jangles are the gtx 2863's Internally gated?

The GTX2860, 2863 and 2867 use the same turbine as gt2860 -5 and -10. Also hks 2530 and GTRS.

Therefore they bolt straight into the turbine housing. You can use other housings of course, but this allows for stock low mount manifolds to be used..albeit with custom inlet piping.

So yes, internally gated in standard low mount gtr position.

I had a set of gtx2860's on a 2.6, with modified manfolds for external gates. but that plan changed.

On a setup like yours I'd be dropping in smaller duration camshafts and buying my gtx2860 setup ;)

Tyre frying boost from 3500rpm, and 500kw on e85 30psi ( not tested, just theory )

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
