All,

 

just bought a dragy and i have to say it is brilliant .

it connects to phone and does gps refresh every .100 sec and quite accurate

 

running on low boost with falken tyre i get a 0-60 of 4.6 sec but if I practice more I think i can get it down to 4 as it doesn’tgrip

 

do you guys shift into 2nd as soon as it is rolling to get fast 0-60 ? If i leave in first then 0-60 is around 5.5 

 

i stick it to 2nd as soon as I have wheel spin and it bounces from red line and then get mid 4

 

on high boost which I haven’t tried (500bhp) i reckon it will be 3.8 if i can get power down

 

on low boost it is 430 bhp

"G4" doesn't give us enough info, there are G4 Fury, G4 Xtreme, G4 Thunder... etc

I'm trying to work out what is your base spring pressure and max boost pressure and if your ECU has traction control functionality. 

If you turn boost control off, how much boost does your turbo make?

It runs at  1 bar spring apology not 1.2

 

ecu is link plug in, see link below

my tuner at time said it needed some work for traction so we disabled it all together and there is no traction

 

low boost is 1.1 bar and high boost is 1.3 which is changed by a switch

How do you guys get grip when accelerating?

 

shift to gear up at expense of less power initially but grip?

Your computer can set lower boost levels in the lower gears.

Different suspension set ups.

Drag friendly tyres.

You could lower your base spring pressure to say, 0.5 bar and then use a 4 port mac valve and run a very progressive boost by gear. 

You could setup your traction control. You haven't said why it doesn't work, I'm guessing you need a non-powered wheel speed sensor. 

Stickier tyres as mentioned above. 

Actually I think this has all been said before, this thread and your recent tyre thread.

Yep and that is not with flooring it

 

0-60 is around 5 sec at best 

got pair of michellen sport 4s so will report back if it got any lower

Let us know what tyre size your running when you report back

So tyre made a massive difference 

 

pilot 4s rear 275

 

front is pilot 4 which doesn’t really matter for acceleration. 0-60 went from 5.3 to 4.8 a wopping 0.5 sec !!!!

 

it sticks like a glue, i can’t even spin wheel on first or hardly it does. It used to spin like hell on first and second on shitty falken

Dragy is awesome! We use one in my car at roll racing to see if the changes are working. Fastest 100-200 is currently 4.11s, with the old turbo. New one I've done a 4.25 on 30psi in the middle of summer. Should go mid 3s now we've got it turned up if we can get it to hook up.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
