"everything about this car is objectively is near perfect, it rides well, the engine is extremely powerful, it's alarming fast, the steering is great, there is nothing I can technically fault this car for"

 

Sounds like me inside/out, I'll convert it to a single turbo and it will dose and I will be happy.

Can the N55 manifold swap over? That would be the way to go IMO for a single turbo swap.

Don't think so, but there are nice manifolds out there on the market that can achieve this very easily.

I would most likely not even go external gate to keep packaging simple.

Probably the following:

  1. Rolling AL (because it's very cool at the moment)
  2. Launch On/Off
  3. Boost Up
  4. Boost Down
  5. Enable/Disable Cruise Control
  6. Set Cruise Control Speed
  7. Stop Cruise Control
  8. Enable/Disable Logging

 

Number 8 sounds pretty sexy, do you know if it can start/stop logging to PC or does it only start/stop logging to onboard memory?

8 buttons don't go far... 

You got dem billet oil pump gears ready for abuse? 
 

billet oil pump gears are rubbish, I've gone the extra step. Nitto oil pump bruvvaaa

I believe it's stop/start to onboard memory only, same way you would press F6 in NSP.

Don't have logging like that. You can set auto logging once a set of parameters have been met. I.e Full throttle = Log.

This means you can go back in time when you have a problem and dont have to pre-emptively start logging. It's the future! By the future I mean I had it many years ago and miss it.

something like 50% Tps, 3000 rpm and 5-6psi 
is roughly what I use in the Link so I don't fill it everytime I drive.

lol, I'd be logging by the end of the driveway, every time.

Don't waste a button on stop cruise control.  You will never push it, just tap the brakes .

Make it increase cruise speed.

 

 

 

Also why have an Enable/ Disable button? Just leave it always enabled.

 

So now you can have an increase cruise speed and a decrease cruise speed.

to be fair, the straight is about 500m

I agree up and down cruise are good things, probably the most often used buttons in the fuga.

The problem with can buttons is you really need a pdm as well for most useful functions. still, a good toy, life would be easier in the gtr if plat pro supported can can pads, i run an old fashioned switch and button custom panel

Good points, will rethink how I use the buttons. 

Might not even have cruise control as I need an IO expander. Used up all the inputs on DBW setup and all the sensors so none left for brake input.

Used up everyone single DPI, AVI. Even sacrificed the power steering input lol.

DBW uses up 4x inputs.

Plus the dbw drive wires that can be used for other things as well

Once you go DBW, you don't look back. Great idle quality, AC doesn't cause idle quality to degrade.

The factory air leak valves are so slow to react, with bigger cams your motor is very inefficient at lower RPMs the compressor engaging is enough to stall the motor.

Nissan should have used stepper motors like JZs or 4Gs, instead they installed a two slow reacting air leak valves lol.

    • rebuilding is a straightforward option too, the only thing to keep in mind is non-genuine boots are likely to be much worse quality rubber and need replacing about 10x as often.
    • Yeah, great guy that Matt, giving very comprehensive emails with quick responses. He told me it’ll be plug and play for the ECU, which may potentially get me out on track at 600kph by the end of the month or June.    Anyone wanna buy a HKS SLD..
    • I was looking into the uniclutch, as something that doesn't rattle, dampens and holds horsepower is the dream.   They didn't seem super confident on the power holding though.  Could just be covering themselves, which is understandable.   "The 10in sport Uniclutch can handle a peak of 1100Nm at the flywheel, not sure how that translates to HP. As for the power output of your engine, I would suggest holding for the UniClutch Track, I feel the 1000HP will have a higher torque rating then what the Sport will be able to handle, We have fitted prototype track clutches to a number of street/track test vehicles now and have found pedal effort to be reasonable. It is very similar to OE pedal feel. and would fall within the torque capacity of the Uniclutch Track."   The track clutch loses the dampening and rattles(?) I believe though.... don't quote me
    • I think this is applicable for most. My car was ~2,000,000 JPY in 2020 Total expenses are around ~5,000,000 JPY excluding fuel. Selling price could be anywhere between ~5,000,000 JPY to ~7,000,000 JPY depending on how desperate the American. Sure, I could have stored it in that time but there are still storage costs “carry costs” as we call it in industry - insurance, garage, electricity, maintenance, etc. and possibly made 100% (nominal return), but I don’t think that’s why most of us are here. Apologies for the deviation.     
    • I don’t think they’re rated to hold that power
