i wouldve thought with my mph that i couldve done a bit better...may need some more practise.. :rofl:

i was launching at about 3k...

R/T - .486

60' - 2.189

330' - 6.027

660' - 9.169

mph - 79.13

1000' - 11.816

ET - 14.067

MPH - 101.05

Km/H - 162.63

At the time, mods were..

Whiteline suspension

pineapples

full exhaust - hi flow cat, dump pipe and cat-back

GTR intercooler

lightened flywheel & ceramic clutch

stock boost

Hey Adrian..

thanks for the advice.

When i slip the clutch, the ceramic combined with the lightened flywheel doesnt make the car too happy...thats why i was dropping it (as best that i could) at about 3k...

Im hoping the extra power the car is putting out will be controlled by the clutch if i slip it out while revving harder..

Hey Cameron - i actually thought my 60' was a bit lame. I would like to get it to a 2.0 flat..

Hey Adrian - Yep thats what im hoping for next time i hit the drags...My tyres are (unfortunately for drags) 18's....but i have 265's on the rear, so i may have a sporting chance...

Thanks SiksII - its great fun !!

i believe alot of it is how you drive your car and the track conditions at the time. my car ran 13.85 @ 101 miles/hr in Darwin of all places. it has similar mods, except i have standard clutch and no suspension mods at that time. Also still have stock intercooler. Like i said above, every 1 is different as to how they drive there car down the 1/4. It was 29 Degree's that night and the track is pretty slippery.

209kW and good tyres should see a high 12 if you can drive.  My car makes less power than that (193kW) and ran a 12.799 @ 105mph.

Are u serious!?

first attempt at 1/4 about 6 months ago i did 13.8@104

spose that was launching at 2200rpm, but still your a second faster with 1 more mph :confused:

Yhe i agree with 2rismo. I ran a 13.4 @ 108mph wiht a clutch slipping in 2nd and 3rd gear, couldnt tell if it was clutch or wheelspin in 1st gear:( That was with a 2.4 6-ft time (i cant drive plus slipping clutch) and only around 180-200rwkws tops because if i ran more then 1bar then i had a miss.

So about 200rwkws (tops), slipping clutch and sh1tty 60ft i still ran a 13.4. Isnt the theory if i cut 3/10s of my 60ft then that equates to between 0.4-0.5 seconds thru the traps?!?!?! SO that means i woudl be looking at about a 12.9/13.0, then a clutch that didnt slip and im sure i would have been able to run a 12.8 (approx).

LOL, Splitfires and 1.4bar and i reckon i can give a 12.5 a nudge:)

There is a small but noticeable weight difference here. An R32 with 200 rwkw should run a fast ET than an R33 with 200 ya?

Looking around these forums I would hope to get 13.6 with my power except that then I remembered that I have a 4 door and it's heavier than a 2 door R34. Makes for better balance on the track but there is a little extra weight in it which may be making a difference on the strip.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
