  1. do it...bloody cheap KW's
  2. BCPR6ES's my bet is the plugs...with correct battery voltage and new plugs it will fire 1st time
  3. Australia's fastest GTR is on track to run a 7 sec pass this weekend at the winternationals. With a lazy launch 1.35 60' and wheelspinning on gearchanges the car stopped the clocks at 8.16 and blasted through the traps at 171MPH into a strong headwind. With further setting the car up for the conditions and a better 60' (PB is 1.23) a 7 sec pass is obtainable. Further updates will follow tommorrow night with the 2nd round of qualifing to be held at 7pm. well done to Mark, Justin, Harry and the team (Julie, Tommi and Ava)
  4. cheap solinoids, brackets and a small bottle air freight and tax on top id say closer to $650
  5. 1st person to fund my trip gets a free engine build serious
  6. i had a mystery envelope in my race bag for a couple of years titled "do not open till you run a 9" the night i ran my 1st 9 sec pass i opened it...what did it contain?... two RH9 club member stickers...nice hey i immediately stuck them on the cars rear 1/4 windows
  7. It wont happen overnight...but it will happen
  8. with slicks on 15inch rims and gas
  9. ran at Compak Attak a month ago and Jason who used to own it ran it quite a bit at the track read this... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Pu...tr-t221947.html
  10. Correct...and incorrect
  11. My engine was making almost 900hp and soon to be making around 1100hp...small balancer is staying put. The larger balancer needs a lot more maintenance too, where as the smaller balancer is much more of a set and forget option for streeters. Who wants to be pulling of thier balancer every few 1000klm's for maintenance....not me
  12. Nitrous is very hard on gudgeon pins...bigger turbo please. ive just done the same thing...tossed up between putting a bigger turbo on our set-up and turning on the gas (i already have a kit installed in our car)...i went with a bigger turbo
  13. Thats what im doing...i have a late model R32 diff which is actually a R33 non v-spec diff. Terry from Award Gearbox and Diff in Sydney says these diffs are the best GTR centres (bigger hemispheres and 31 spline 33mm 1/2 shafts) and are excellent after the Nismo kit is put through them.
  14. lets put this into perspective... there is only a handful of us in the country to go sub 10 in a GTR on radials....if it was easy and cheap to do their would be a lot more. the pre track talk was "it will run a few 9's then it will be turned up to try for an 8" i nearly fell off my seat! I know John personally and have a lot of respect for him and his car, but its just not that simple. Many factors need to be addressed before 9's let alone 8's are a reality with any car, let alone an 1100hp GTR. Im sure John will run a 9 soon and i hope he gets rid of the slicks and runs it on radials. RH9 = Record Holders 9 seconds GTR
  15. Its together James...together...ok
  16. that photo is over 2 years old...Dario's ute is in the background and its been back on the road for over 18 months
  17. yeah...it then made 1100hp with the T88-38GK it may have been John's first time at the track with THIS car...but he's got more runs under his belt than most (previously ran a R32 GTR into the mid 10's as well)
  18. Red R Racing (aka DiRTgarage) is looking for expresions of interest from people looking to have Mark tune their cars. We will be flying Mark down within the next few weeks and we are hiring a brand new Mainline 4WD dyno for the day. The cost will be $750 per car which is cheap considering he is one of Australia's leading GTR tuners. This will be taking place in Newcastle for one day only. For those who have been living under a rock and are unaware of who Mark is see the following link. www.godzillamotorsport.com spots are limited so first in best dressed...$100 deposit to secure your spot.
  19. 11.36 would be the fastest ive heard of...i think i ran around 11.6 in a mates car at WSID with stockers. Quite embarrising for him as his best was 12.1
