How to launch/burn out in NM35 Stagea?

As per thread title and also want to keep the wagon forum alive ......

Might sounds d*mb but how do you launch/stall or do a burnt out in the Stagea? I drive manual cars since the day i got my license .... some 20 years ago ... god damn it i'm old :(. Do you put in manual mode, 1st gear then launch? Same apply to burnt out?

Gotta replace the 2 rear tyres soon so might as well have some fun first, in a controlled environment offcourse.

Car has brake cut mod, hi-flow

Cheers

Well it's 4wd so unless you drop the front axels or can pull out a plug or something you might not have much luck, I know those things work for C34 but not sure about M35

To launch, (manual mode)hold brake down hard and I mean hard. Accelerator to the floor and wait. Should start spooling after 5 or so seconds, hold it there for a bit then release the brake and feel all that heavenly glory of your head slamming into the headrest. It works that way with a stock turbo. Don't know how the Highflow will go. What Highflow? For burnout, you'll most probably need to drop the front drive shaft.

Shite

This don't sounds good with Kakimoto exhaust. I have had many 4wd launches in the old gtr, i understand what you meant about heavenly glory, look at my signature :).

I got Sierra hi-flow, stag 1 from previous info as i didn't arrange the works myself.

Make sure the brake cut is doing its thing (IE, so signal to the ECU) Manual in first, left foot on the brake and right foot to the floor and wait.

With the stock turbo it'll eventually start turning the rears a little after a while, not too sure about the highflow, though I've normally launched by then.



As for a burnout I find the old pump the brake to kill  the attessa works fine, I dont do it very often (so far a whole of twice since I bought the car) so any issue of pressure being in the center diff is neither here nor there. 4 pumps then hold for the 5th as you start the car, 4WD light will come on and youre good to go.

Pump the brake to kill attessa is NEW, i've never heard of this. 

Have you tuned your car yet?

Its how you bleed the attessa system IIRC? Read about it many moons ago.

Just running an Impul, you saw my car down at scotts the other week. Its pretty stock, just the impul, exhaust and FMIC, and a plenum spacer really in the way of power mods.

Oh for some reasons, i thought i heard you have Emanage ready to go in. 

I do, its sitting on the floor in my bedroom ready to go.

Need to scrounge some cash together to install it, I'm broke as shit right now.


Maybe its 5 pumps? every time I've tried it its worked, I tried it randomly one night while at a skid pan, thought I'd give it a crack. Not 100% sure as I went from memory. Someone a bit more educated should probably weigh in

    • So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.
    • So....knowing that I have a problem with power steering temps on track and another Wakefield day booked in next Friday, I've done the obvious thing They are very reasonably priced at $1650, considering they are a big monotube shock, double height adjustable (don't have to change pre-load to change ride height), one way adjustable damping and standard sized and customisable springs if you want something other than what comes with them. They come with 9kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm front and I went with that as a starting point because I'll add adjustable sway bars too https://justjap.com/products/bc-racing-coilover-kit-ds-ds-infiniti-q50-v37-14-current#description Unfortunately they didn't come with rear strut tops so I've re-used the factory ones which was a bit of a pain. Also, the adjuster for the rear shock will be an absolute nightmare to get at, and while there are extensions in the kit I can't see any way you can actually attach or use them
    • I also had 2 bulbs blow at once, years ago in the stagea. made for a fun drive home. The issue was the voltage regulator had failed in the alternator and it was giving 15+ volts. Really, I was lucky all that was fried were the headlight bulbs. So, I'd suggest you check the voltage across your battery terminals with the car running and warmed up. Yes, you will need a multimeter to do so, sorry.
    • Good work to think to check that, and thanks for coming back to post up the outcome.
    • Given it happened suddenly, and when you come on boost, I'd check all your inlet - hose clamps in place and no split rubber or silicone hoses. Even the hard to get to ones near the intercooler. It's possible air that went past the air flow meter is being dumped out a big hole.
