I dunno gts-t vspec, perhaps get into the 12s or something most rb25s have problems doing that. There is like what? 1 here doing 12s? with all those blue screens? and only 1 12 second pass? in a r33 rb25?

Mines computer is just a map, Actually im even unsure what it has cut wise, i need to get it read. Stock computer would probably be better minus speed and boost cut.

RB20LabWagon,

I totally agree with you, but I think all of us here in WA need to start spending more money on our cars, cause the other states keep kicking our arse in terms of times.

By mid-through this year I hope to be consistantly in the mid-12's, this is with another $5-6K thrown at the car. Hope to see you down the plex on Wednesday to see how 290rwhp goes on the R32, should be very close to a 12 I would guess.

See'ya :burnout:

Its a r31 oz spec sillhuette. it should do a 12, if it will launch itself insted of lunching itself. 5-6k ? ouch. My car isnt even worth that much.

Sorry about getting car wrong, can't see for looking, I just assumed. The $5-6K is for engine internals, turbo and exhaust manifold, I've already spent alot more than that. I am trying to make a reliable package, therefore not going for too much power too soon.

R31 Power,

Gotta agree with RB20LagWagon, she ain't no stunner, I'm sure it doesn't even get washed, but when she pulls up to the lights and wants to race flick your indicators on and pretend like you have to turn.:lol:

See'ya:burnout:

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
