firstly, its not compressor surge, its turbo flutter, when the throttle is closed and the only way for the air to get out is back through the compressor blades (hence the use of BOVs). surge is when the turbo is trying to flow more air than the engine can take in with the throttle open, causing it to skip, similarly to flutter. secondly, custom gear set? every gear sounds straight cut except 4th?
hey guys, dont know much about the cars but i love skylines lol. jus wondering what is that noise when he releases is accelerator? is it the blow off valve aswell? cause i hear it when he is shifting aswell as when the engine rpms drop
@ningablind that is compressor surge from the turbo, most newer turbos are ball bearing so they are alot more stronger and reliable now, so theres no point using blow off valves.
good stuff guys, best bit was watching from behind, the car just rockets in a straight line, I am sure it was following you guys that got me into 2nd place ;)....go QLD

theoretically a rwd car is more aggressive than an awd. depending on how you drive it is just as fast and maybe even a little faster

hey guys
mark did drive it well sonsidering the suspension set up was very bad , but the car will get some more work and it will be a rocket ship shortly.
times were around the 2.20 flat a=on saturday with 4wd and 2.26 on sunday with only two wheel drive and a fairly greasy track , lot of rain around.
i think the fastest cup car ran 2.17 on saturday, so we were very happy as this is the cars first time on the track.
cheers russ

why do all the gears whine but not 4th?
ZENN0N 3 years ago
its because 4th is straight through gear.
(1 to1) so there is no load on the second shaft..
