How responsive is it compared to stock?

You have basically the same setup im going for except you're using 2560R's whereas im going for the HKS GT-SS's. I'm probably just gonna opt for 2xRB25 AFM's too.

You're running the stock fuel pump minus the low/high resistor right?

Overall a very nice result, grats!

You can keep your stock afms with the gtss's Kris unless you want to run huge boost ( above 1.2 bar ) .

In relation to results at WSID - LOL

First time at the drags, I had 3 runs. Two of them i absolutely buggered up. The first run bogged down with a 2.2 60 foot time. Runs were done at 15 pound boost, because my boost controller was playing up :angry:

I'll be back next week a fair bit earlier

:ohnoes:

Dont worry Tommy, sounds like you had some first time nerves. Will be good to see what the car can do.

what kind of times did you run? for the 2.2 60 was it bogging down or wheelspin?

Getting the launch right in a GTR with big turbos is a pain...such a fine line between sitting there smoking and bogging down.

I guess the 7000rpm launches might not work with these turbo's hey?

do you need to ride the clutch for a little bit in this instance?

12.7 for a first outing is a good start for sure.

I would have launched that first one at 5000 rpm MAX. And i really dont make decent boost until something like 6k or more. Next time I'll try to rev it out a bit more. I think i got there at about 7/730, so it really didnt give me much time to have many runs. Had absolutely no idea what i was doing, where i was going, etc.

I will be there next week. Hopefully boost controller issues will be sorted and ill be running 18-19 psi.

Either the turbos are just really big and laggy for my setup or something funny is going on ?

What gear is it that you don't see 15PSI till 6000RPM? My turbos are bigger than yours and I get full boost (1.3 kg) by about 4800RPM in anything above 2nd. I don't think I even get full boost in 1st though.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 馃槀 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
