Any other Skyliens running?  How does the mph compare to the std turbo times?

I was the only Skyline running against a mob of LS1's. Heathcote in May should be interesting if we can get a group to go up as it will be same day, same track.

WIth the stock turbo, the best i managed at Heathcote was a 13.09@105 with a 2.09 60'.

Tyres are Sumituno's HRZ 11, 255/40/17, wouldnt mind trying RE55 or the new Toyo's. Will have the burn these ones up first though

12s!

Congrats on running 12s - its a good feeling - my previous 2 cars did and it feels goodd!

Im aiming to get my series II 33 running stock turbo into the 12s,its got an ARC front mount,jap Rom and a few other goodies, i rekon It can do it easy. Ive had quite a bit of practise at the strip. Ive seen guys with modded 33s ie. turbo etc that cant pull low 13s even!! You have to know how to launch the car and how to set it up for the race, ie. warming tyres, tyre pressure etc.

Nice times Robo. :(

How were the LS1's holding up?

Hard question, they ranged from blown to turbocharged, some serious cars there and alot running quick times. Still i beat a lot. If i had some decent tyres and more attraction, i would certainly show a few more up.

They'd be the tyres you've got under it then? :(:)

My standard turbo 33 gtst went 12.7 @ 108mph late last year with numerous 12.9's and 12.8's in trying to get there.

Nice times Robo. :(

How were the LS1's holding up?

it was a shit weekend, a few decent LS1's there.

A fair portion nothing wonderful. For the LS1 nats i was dissapointed to see a turnout which in would call average

Robo's... i say your car, but there wasnt anyone near it the times i went past it.

I was there with Rossco and his purple 32 GTR.

Only did a 11.02 :) so sad.

Poof diff broke just after half track and just missed the 10 lol.

Lets do a Skyline Nats or some sort of skyline drag event. Would be nice to run some other skylines but since ive owned it (2 years) theres never been one organised. Hopefully the one next month (Datsan, Nissan) event might attract a few.

Last dyno session we picked up another 8rwkw with some extra boost which bought it to 225rwkw at 5700rpm. Now this is on a Dynomite dyno which the owner from experience running back to back against a dyno dynamics dyno reads 6.7% less. So putting this back into the calculation, it should be around 240rwkw on a dyno dynamics dyno. Boost at the moment is just over 19psi.

    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
    • You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple
    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
