Took the car down to calder last nite, a few skylines there, seen a few R31 GTS with SAU VIC stickers on em.

Last minute decision to go down and run my car cos the tyres are prettty slick, we also pulled out the front headlight.

Only got 3 runs in cos it was packed but on my last run I gave it my all and ran a 12.5 @ 110 mph. I was reallll happy with the result. I did this on 13 psi, bald 18 inch 265 Dunlop SP8000e, stock dump, stock cat and a remapped (for stock turbo) ecu.

I have got 113 mph before on just over 14 psi, but I kept it at low boost hence the lower 110 MPH. Just a nice big burnout to get the tyres up to temp and a solid launch.

Ive got a video of the run as well, will put it up! im hoping now when I put on injectors, PFC, tune and a couple of other items that I can get the car into the high 11s, again on street 18s (no nittos/semi slicks).

thanks dezz

The vid may be a while, Ive gotta get it compressed then uploaded somewhere. I dont have ADSL or a computer capable of compressing, so Ill have to wait until I can get hold of one!

Also to note, I got a 1.8 second 60 ft!

Yep i had my car out there with the new KAAZ lsd fitted and only got 2 runs bogged down both times and managed 16.1 @ 84mph ,

I saw your 12.5 sec run very impressive and well done

There was even a 31 in the burnout comp 5 minutes on the rev limiter non stop

people respect the RB :)

Thanks mate,

I wouldve come up and said Hi, but it was just so packed out, I found myself constantly just moving my car up the never ending line. I only got 3 bloody runs!!! Other times ive been to calder Ive had like 15 runs!

Im jealous!!!!

I could only manage a 13.8!!! with a terrible 60ft!

Ben (Racepace) has told me its my clutch not holding the power in 3rd gear, what sort of clutch are you running???

Cangrats with the great time!

Just out of interest, what was your 1000ft mph??? around 87ish?

Hey

Im running a fairly "common" Exedy Heavy duty clutch. Ive never believed in these clutches in the past, Ive always had CBP Xtreme button clutches, but this exedy clutch cops a hammering and holds nicely. I got it new when I first got the car, Im pleased with it, and its not really that expensive. Its held up well for over 16 x 12 second passes and the assaulting it gets on the street.

no 1000ft speeds were recorded in ANY of my runs, but at the 660 ft mark I was getting 89 mph.

Getting good times comes down to practise and knowing your car, people ask me what RPM I launch and what RPM to shift, I dont look, I somehow am able to hear it. Keep it simple, dont try too many things at once, you dont need more boost to get a better E.T.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
