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

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.

Well done robbo, those times are competitive with a stock GTR.....pity we don't see too many GTR drivers at the track....might be scared that guy's like you will whip em!

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:)

I love your defintion of "stock" Paul :cheers:

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.

    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option
