Hmm that trap speed is WAY down, I was running higher than that with much lower numbers on a hub dyno - I was expecting at least 10mph more!

Good luck sussing it out, hope it's nothing to major causing the lag etc :wacko:

bogging down... launch harder.. 5000+ maybe up the tyre pressure so you try and free spin and then work your tyre pressure down from there.... no need really to use antilag/ launch control free revving is fine, but if your computer has it it will assist. dont side step the cluctch either, rid it a bit aswell, this will help with your launch and also your bogging down issue :)

Missed this thread so posting a bit late.

Check your flywheel and clutch cover assembly weight, heavy is good for hard launches with sticky rubber on GTR's.

The mass assists reducing bog downs, stored energy for when you let the clutch out.

Lighter assemblies tend to head towards bogdowns.

Slicks without using anti-lag/2-step/launch control on a slightly modified turbo car is pointless ESP on a RWD or 4WD car. Your car makes no power out of boost (well slightly less than a non-turbo equivalent of your motor.) Car is not making enough power out of boost to even challenge slicks

Depends on the car and what you consider "slightly modified"

My 32 would be considered slightly modified with simple bolt ons and with Toyo TQ drag radials I got a bit carried away with launch rpm and spun all 4 and nearly ran over the Christmas tree :D

Lol that might be driver mod :rolleyes::yes: my Evo 8 with 550whp would spin all "THREE" too, not entirely sure what setups come on the GT'rs whether they have true lsd's F/R or just Rear LSD and a gripper or open lsd in front.

Slightly modded might be upgraded ECU / boost levels etc, bolt-on turbo upgrade, 3" Downpipage/3" TBE could be a multitude of other parts, but i consider that to be "slight modification"

Also to OP: Dead-hooking will and can snap axles/shear hubs/diffs I snapped my stage 3 B5 Audi S4 axles launching it off 2-step (12lbs .9bar) at the track

I have what you listed except turbos, still stock, yeah 3 wheels would be a better way of saying it, true machanical LSD rear with open front, heavy rear sway bar helps front traction in straight line so mine will spin all four if launched to hard :D

      Problem with a tachometer on a Skyline R33 with an RB25DET Neo engine

      By kike_kike · Posted

      Hello First, I apologize if this is not the correct forum. Let me know and I will move it to the correct one. I'm having a problem with the tachometer on my Skyline R33 with an RB25DET Neo engine. I'll tell you from the beginning. I'll tell you from the beginning. I have the RB25DET Neo engine installed in a Nissan Patrol GU, with a Link G4X control unit specifically for that engine,  and I have fitted a Skyline R33 tachograph to the original GU dashboard, but it doesn't work properly. I have the tachometer connected to the positive and negative terminals of the GU panel's wiring, and the signal cable is connected directly to the ECU output pin, but the rpm fluctuates widely. Can anyone tell me if the output signal from an R33 ECU is the same as the output signal from an R34 ECU, or if the voltage and signal type are different? Regards and thanks.

      I guess it was the thought about "Oh if I were to drive this everyday". Then no, SL500 I wouldn't really consider lmao.

      Yeah actually really fair point. Idk what I was thinking when looking at the SL500. Now that I think about it, I feel like I would have more enjoyment out of a shitbox that I would need to repair than some fancy merc. Although I must admit the SL500 does look quite nice. My bad hahaha.

      100% Also "Not wanting to spend money" is THE WORST IDEA IMAGINABLE when coming to a project car of any kind. They EXIST to BURN MONEY. Sure, gas money is a thing. A stock car with the worst fuel economy ever sold would probably be cheaper than modifying a car with FREE petrol for the life of your ownership of it, lol.

      Amount of time you're being observed by law enforcement is so minute, that you could be a dumb shit 90% of your driving time, and never lose a demerit. You could also be the best driver ever and still get hit with a fine.   When you realise how quickly everything turns from "Wee, we're having fun!" To "oh f**k oh f**k oh f**k", you start to realise the only way to be a good driver, is to not be doing anything dumb or unexpected by normies on the road. You want to go fast, go to the track. Someone there in a 1990s slow POS will also show you how bad of a driver you are as they lap 10 seconds per lap quicker than you can in a car that should be considerably faster.
