180sx: Tune!

The day had finally come. Luckily there wasn't much traffic on the way as the car was running pretty crap.

Quick fuel stop at the place anyone who goes to chequered tuning and runs p98 will recognise.

And we're here.

Got the car hooked up to the hub packs.

I anxiously sat through a lot of pulls but the car held it together.

And this was the final result. I was hoping for 220-230kw but 216kw is close enough right? It made 219kw on a pull but was ever so slightly starting to see knock so Trent pulled out 2 degrees landing on 216kw as a final figure to keep it safe as the car was knock limited and I'll be drifting it so it needs to be reliable.

Since I previously had the 180 tuned here we were able to overlay the past tune which was just a t28 along with my crappy inbay cooler setup. I was surprised to not see a drop in response from the greddy plenum and dmax manifold.

I drifted the car fine on the old setup so an extra 40ish kw will be a bit of extra spice but should hopefully keep the gearbox safe too.

Trent noticed my uras sticker on the front sticker and fished out some og goodies out of his stash for me too. What a legend!

The car is currently sleeping over at the tuners for cold start to be tuned in the morning. I can't wait to pick it up and go for a rip to fully reap the rewards of the last 6 months.

Anyways the full build list is as per below if anyone is interested.
