I went to the track this weekend for my first shakedown runs on pumpgas and street tires and was a victim of wheel hop which hurt my launches pretty badly. I was still feeling like the car was significantly faster on the street 0-60 but my brother said I was crazy so I went out and tested again on the street and here are the logs from the Haltech.

0 mph in first to 7460 rpms in 3rd:

At the track with antilag at 5,250 rpms= 8.495 sec on [email protected] mph.(0-60 mph is 4.01 sec)

On the street no antilag just 5,250 rpms limiter until 2 mph= 8.474 sec (0-60 mph is 3.71 sec)  <--also note that I actually shifted SLOWER going into 3rd!)

So 11.70 @ 120 on the track is likely quicker on the street in my car. It's strange, without the wheel hop it spins a tiny bit then just ROCKETS out of the hole. For some reason this is just faster in every way.Also the front NISMO LSD is the only NON-stock part in my entire drivetrain downstream of the Super coppermix twin clutch. I will be changing rear subframe bushings because one is oozing goo out of it now. Also the coilovers are old school HKS Hyper D (read EXTREMELY STIFF).

Too much traction on the track and the engine bog down a little. Stuff more boost in it, problem solved. 

I think on the street you get the "just what it need" in terms of wheelspin to pull the car efficiently from the start line.

With better traction on the track where tons on rubber lie on the ground you just "stall" the car. Plus it seems you lifted the throttle on track during first gear. Well just my opinion I'm no expert in drag racing.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
