So my MPH is all good but im struggling with wheel spin so my 60ft is lazy.

Im on the left hand of the lane on this slip.

The right hand lane had drag radials on but I dont want to go there.  What is a good street tyre could be a semi slick but I want to be able to run on the street/summer driving.

R32 GTR with Stock 16" wheels and hunting the 10 sec pass.

Thanks.

How many passes have you done?

Don't be surprised if seat time alone does the trick.

It looks not only the 60 is a bit off so is the 1/8.

Which points more to seat time, tyres won't help there.

This, R/T is a bit sluggish as well

Achilles 123S are a pretty decent street tyre, a GTSt I tune almost hit 11s with "only" 123mph trap speed and very gentle launches because he was having axle tramp issues - doesn't sound that great, but ~12.1 in a RWD Skyline on 18" street tyres isn't too shabby even before you consider it still had some traction in reserve if it weren't for the tramp.

On nankang ns2000 tyres, the really naaaaaaaaasty ones with my hillclimb alignment in the car still i went 1.6 to the 60, 7.4 to the 1/8th and 139.9 to the 1/[email protected]. You have a 10 in that. Get the alignment sorted, drop your tyre pressure to 26 and try again

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
