Now tha we have the track and drag tables. How a bout a horsepower one, similar to these. Proven power of course.

Split it up into engine catorgories : RB20DE, RB20DET, RB25DE, RB25DET, RB26DETT(and above ie 2.6-3.0 litres). Also a 4 & 8 cylinder class for those not as lucky as some.

Not sure if this thought is original, probably not.

This is very dependant on dynos... all it'll do is encourage people to dyno their car at the highest reading dyno in their area to get the best figure...

I think the 1/4 Mile and Racetrack lap times are much better units of measurement for comparing our cars...

Yep.Times rule.Dynos are for tuning.Tracks are for proving.

Besides, what good is 1000hp if you can't harness it & do what we all like doing - going heaps fast.

Often more power doen't make a car go faster.Power + traction+

good driving = killer times(drags or circuit)

Just my opinion.

I love the idea so long as "Dyno/Workshop Where Recorded" is a required field.

I think it'd be great.

Just cos you feel that 1/4 times or lap times are more important shouldn't preclude those with a raw hp bent from having their achievements recorded.

I'm all for it.

Adrian.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅

      Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
