Well Melbourne turned it on with another perfect night for dragging, cold and no wind.

2nd [email protected]

3rd [email protected]

The 2nd and 3rd run where struggling for a bit of traction but overall im very impressed with the results. MPH is looking quite strong. Not bad for a small baby 2530 turbo and street tyres.

Funny you said that as there was a nice blue R34 GTR running 13.1 and 13.2 @106mph. Must have been stock as these are stock times for a GTR

We have a stocker in our stable, it ran 12.3....exhaust, boost controller and power FC (running base map) sh1t tyres though. Hoping to break into the 10s at Drag Combat with our no.1 car though.

Exhaust, boost, power fc, = Stock, mine must be a stock GTST then :Bang:

catback,boost control and plugged in untuned ECU. thats all. Stock engine,stock turbos,stock AFM,stock intercooler,stock fuel pump and injectors,stock cams and cam wheels, stock airbox and filter, its even got the factory oil cap!!...as far as im concerned a stocker is a car with cat-back and boost control, as this is generally how we see them off the boat! To some people this combo spells "highly modified"....not in my books.

Damn thats impressive - the first and only time i'v ebeen to the strip i was running 12.4@112mph - so your gtst is pretty much as quick as my GTR!!! You must be getting off the line bloody quick!!

Although that was at heathcote and traction was crap that day i was axle tramping all the way through first and into 2nd... until i blew my gearbox :)

Interested to hear what your 60ft time were

I i punch out between 112-114mph and my car would weigh 50-70kg less...just need to forget conservation and hook up first and get stuck into 2nd.

Good work on the times...i was only saying last night to a friend that his old 2530 setup was awesome on his RB25:)

What is the go with the boost you are running, do you find that at the top end boost trails off?

Im getting 19psi in the middle, by 6000rpm its down to 16psi and then its down to around 13.5psi at about 6500rpm. Probably showing why my max power is at 5,700rpm as the boost drops off. My power graph is very funny, from 5000rpm onwards you draw a straight line accross and it moves up and down 5rwkw if that.

Ive learnt that you dont rev this bugger, im upchanging just over 6000rpm which maybe a good thing. Wouldnt mind trying a bigger turbo to see if i get much more top end.

I have a copy of my boost curve on a spreadsheet, i'll post it up.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
