ill be there next week with my mates rb25 vl.

last time he ran a 11.7 @117mph.

its a 5 speed and with the 3.45:1 ratio diff was crossing the line in 3rd gear.

we also hadnt hooked up the vct yet.

so this time we will have a 4.11:1 diff and vct hooked up and hope to break into the 10's.

are there many 5 speed rb25 equipped cars running 10's?

Those pics are damn ugly, nothing but stupid angles all over the place.

I was just thinking the same thing, low res aside there are some terrible photos there

I dont know of any 5spd RB25s in the 10s - but do you think 117mph is enough for a 10?

with the 3.45:1 diff it bogged off the line and only got to 3rd gear by the finish line.

so we are hoping that by using 4th gear(changed diff ratio) and not bogging off the line aswell as having the vct hooked up that a reduction of .7 seconds is definately on the cards

Well done on the PB Blitz - car looked and sounded sweet from the stands :)

Also, had to laugh at Jim Reed's daughter last night with her "Mintie this, Mintie that, We love Mintie" comments over the loudspeaker lol...sounds like you've got a bit of a fan club there dude ;)

Very hard to run 10s with a manual, i ran 12.9 130mph, then installed an auto and ran 11.2 127mph and still more to come !!!!

The res is fine it's more so the angle of the pictures. Half of them look like the camera was just left on a timer sitting on the ground with nobody even taking the pictures.

My 60Ft are 1.6 not the best but good enough, 1st gear my boost was on 20psi, 2nd gear the boost droped to 8psi and then 3rd gear went back to 20psi the eboost has to be correctly adjusted which will happen tuesday and i'll be back out wednesday. the car makes 400kw on 20psi

I think the res has been lowered so people dont nick the pics and use less webspace

Notice I said low res aside :( - I was referring to the shots themselves, ie the angles as Benm mentioned. I am fully aware that for image protection, photopgrahers only make small, low res images available on the web :thumbsup:

thats very impressive power! and yes the 1.6 60ft is very good for a rwd car.

is that 400rwkw @20psi? we just made a bit more power. 343rwkw@25psi.

you have more power at less boost. is your head modified? we are running an unopened rb25 with tomei poncams and splitfire coils only

    • I'm in the market for 370GT.  I live in Canberra and not much available so I'm looking interstate.  Can anyone recommend an inspection service with expert knowledge of Skylines? Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide (Elizabeth area)
    • A million years later, searching for something else I posted, I was reminded of this thread. I eventually bought a new gauge. Put it in using the same probe (which has been installed the whole time stopping the exhaust gas from coming out the hole) and.... normal service has been resumed. The old gauge was definitely broken. /semi-pointless closure.
    • They're available from Nissan! I was able to buy a GTR (R33) one.. relatively* recently. Perhaps this stopped now but I bought mine ... relatively recently. I believe the 300ZX one has a different knee-point which is more rear biased, which I think the HFM one echos.
    • Hey Team, A bit to unload here. Hello from New Zealand I have a 2009 Nissan Skyline 370GT ( Type SP ) Auto 7 Speed, that I've had since 2022 and have loved the car since. Its painted in its factory QAB ( White Pearl ) with the Impul front lip and rare boot lid/spoiler with woodgrain interior. Mods since I've bought it and installed: Stillen Gen 3 Long Tube Intakes Motordyne Shockwave Catback Exhaust JDM Skyline Taillights Fake carbon spoiler and front grill ( Will be taking off.... its cringe ) VR30DETT Transmission from the Q50/Q60 to hold up to 550 Foot pounds of Torque ( 753 nm ) reliable  Currently I plan to turbo the car and have all the parts needed ( Photo Included ), I have my tuning day set on August 8th and choosing EcuTek as my tuning platform. Two of my work colleagues has their 370Z ( Manuel ) and 370GT coupe ( Type SP - Manuel ) also turbo'd and they have inspired me to get it done I have prepped quite a wee bit for this, as I had done the VR30 transmission swap over to this car so that I can achieve my HP goals without torque being an issue. I've taken quite a cautions route, as im always thinking about the safety as well as performance with my build, I'd rather do it properly and not cut corners etc etc. Any who, I've recently picked up the AutoStrada cruise control kit with all the included cables/wires/instructions. I've been hella researching around and can't find much on the integration that it has with the ECU and/or system. the only reason why im asking is, because I'm getting EcuTek and one of them RaceRom features allows the ability to switch maps via the cruise control function, which I am currently in the grey area if this would add-on via the Canbus will allow me to switch maps or have the option to use Cruise Control to begin with ( showing up on the instrument cluster to advise Cruise Control being set etc etc )  Because of my model being Type SP, Cruise Control on these models was never an option from factory unfortunately.  Anyone here that is able to shed some light on if the Cruise Control via AutoStrada gives OEM ability over the cruise control. Would love and appreciate any response and/or assistance with this, also happy to answer any question about my build and ill try pitch in where I can. Warm Regards,  
    • I thought the only (new) BM57 that was readily available was the one that was a BM57 but with the wrong bias. HFM or someone's?
