I had two passes which were pretty ordinary. 13.2 ET with 2.1 60FT (I know I know....)........I don't think I'll have any more mods in the car by then so I hope to run a 12 in current trim.

As long as I line up VISHES I'll be happy BWHAHA =)

ed: myself, carlo, and nick will be there to spectate. I believe Minh is coming out too. not sure if he's running though

ok...you guys know what I look like hahaha...

I'll be there with my tripod and camera...hope to get a few vids...

With a better launch, you could have possibly cracked the 12s.

I mean barely..I'm talking 12.9

You should be getting closer to 1.7-1.8 on the 0-60ft time. Work on your launches. ie. It's a GTR. You want to light up the rear wheels so the front wheels actually do some work. So, rev to rev-limiter if not close to it. Release clutch (quickly, hell sidestep if you want :(:) ).

Make sure to brace neck accordingly. The snap into 2nd could also do some damage (to your neck or car...what ever is weaker)

:D

poyz - I think 107mph or something like that?

Hello Peepz...the impression i had from this drag meet was that SAU would hijack the scene from the rotaries and V8s....but that was not the case :) oh well next time we can turn up in numbers :)

As for my result, I ran a best time of 13.4 @ 103mph @ 1 Bar with 2.0sec 60ft time :)

u ran a 13.4 linus?

damn.....i wanna run mine but im afraid ill run a 16+sec+!!!

i guess ill have to suck it up and give it a go.. :)

Atlantis Aquariums :) heard u were there on sunday, thats my mates shop ;)

I was supporsed to turn up but i was too buggered from carts, ....she was not happi i didn't come :)

yep..i was there with my friend...she wanted some seahorses!!!

i thought it was intrusive since they were having a private grand opening party...

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
