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

2nd [email protected]

3rd [email protected]

4th [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.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.

      Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.

      Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
