Very first pass of the night.

VP103 in the tank, MT ET Streets ready to go, Nitrous jetting set to 'KILL' and a 5500rpm launch then straight into the loud pedal was a recipe for disaster.....or so it seems.

Diff has let go and wont engage under load. Pulling it apart today to have a look just how bad it is. If it hadn't broken it would've been an awesome run. Hooked up harder than ever before and shocked me. My helmet smashed into my chest when the car went from being fully loaded up on the tyres to nothing in about half a second. Ouch! :D

Didn't even make 60'.

HUUUUGGGGEEEE thanks to Stuart from Bezerkly Automotive www.bezerkly.com for bringing the car trailer and tow vehicle up from Wollongong and getting me home before midnite. Awesome effort and greatly appreciated.

Bad luck mate. What were you running before that? stock? was it reshimmed? hopefully now you'll run faster by putting power to both wheels with the 1.5way.

Factory Nissan and to the best of my knowledge, it has never been touched but for a change of fluid.

Hopefully I'll come up with something bigger and better for the drag day. Anyone have any ideas that don't cost the earth?

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
