30 rear 32 front, it is what you have to run with these tyres to get even contact across the tread

We will see 100 pages one way or another dam it :rant: lol

Dont worry mate I enjoy the info while I am waiting for my job to be finished and Paul is back in action, all good :yes: :yes:

You seen GTRNUR's results in the build thread pete, seems relevent to your situation some what, a 6466 that was maxing out with 98 at around 380ish , but he's getting full boost much earlier than your 4000rpm goal ...

When did his get full boost, I will try to find it later but I do not mind maxing out under 380 kw and I am hoping for full boost under 4000rpm and think we will get it, but my expectations so far in the modifying world have been less than met, lol

Full boost at 4600rpm seems late and hopefully with the cams and cat tweaked, the 6boost manifold , a new tune???

28 psi was at 3300 I believe. That's a 6466 with a 1.00 rear.

I'm not sure about that as the dyno wasn't logging RPM. When it had the 18lb gate springs installed it would easily get to 18lb at around 3200.

To get some control though, I changed the setup to use twin port boost control with the gates and am using 10lb gate springs instead. This is bringing boost on a little slower, so probably 3500 to 20lb and I have no idea where it gets full boost as my eyes are on the road instead.

Pete's setup should be all on around 3500-3700 at most.

20-22 was best results on my street tyres

Different tyres respond differently to different pressure, cause these things a 30 series they rely on tread grip as there is very little sidewall so no flex so I need to get even pressure across the tread for best traction, it also means they need heat to work and that is something I can not do in 4WD at the drag strip on a 10deg night :(

they are not the best thing for drag racing or standing starts but awsome for circiut use

yes, eyes on the road once it's on, no sightseeing , lol.

Had a bit of a look at those 6Boost Manifolds, seem like a nice unit.

Hard to find a lot of info, anyone used the 6boost or knows about them.

From what I can work out, it is the way the 6 pipes all come together and there is no real disruption of the exhaust flow ( not sure about the wording) :/

Thanks, I should have opened my PC as this laptop really is difficult at times searching on SAU, I cannot login directly or get PMs or Notifications ????

So it seems like everything, some think something is great and others think it is crap ,haha

It's to late now don't you think?

With some people liking it and others not are down to personal taste, whether they got a dodgy mani, application and a million other factors.

It is better than that Swiss cheese mani you had

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
