I knew it was over 9000 but not 9200 (shift light setting) but somewhere in between. So yes 9100.

around 9000

Getting Rid Of Clutch
Swiper the Fox replied to jantolis's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Stacey and i raced on the same clutch for 3 years...450AWKW...and lots of abuse. then had it rebuilt for $300 and it now lives in another 400+ AWKW R33 street car. no problems -
how much will you pay me to come and do it...ive done this job (in car) many times
-
ran 11.0 on the weekend with 350AWKW...but if i knew i only had 350 (i forgot to turn on the boost controller) i would have ran a high 10. As i would have launched and shifted the car a little differently...probably ran more tyre pressure too. Benm was spot on...low-mid 10's with 400kw I ran 10.38 at the SAU drag day with 27psi on the 2530's which was 404AWKW. (just for the record) The Dutton car you speak of runs a PPG dogbox which bring its ET down in the low 10's

Grex (trust/greddy) Oil Filter Relocation Kit
Swiper the Fox replied to stolen_s15's topic in General Maintenance
Z145A -
This as new (turbo's are less than 1000k old) full kit includes turbo's, wastegates (1.2bar spring), manifolds, dump pipes, TRUST front pipes (heat wrapped), intercooler piping (hot side only) and all braided water and oil lines (over $600 worth). Turbine housings, dump pipes and manifolds have all been ported and matched for increased air flow as well as been ceramic coated in "hi temp" black. Compressor housings and intercooler piping has been coated in "cerami-chrome". All ceramic coating cost over $1000. Makes over 500AWKW on 25psi and good for 9 sec quarters. $5500

cool we may see you there. Bodyform are re-kitting our car and lining the stripped out rear interior with carbon fibre. A Top Secret carbon rear diffuser and Gannador Aero mirrors as well. It should look the goods and turn the Dyno at around 600kw with the NOS turned on.
-
did you get an invite to compete in "invitational class"??....we got a pack in the mail to compete in the "Power Challenge" as the Power Champion for our state.
-
Same i have a matching crown and pinion for the front. I could go to 4.3 but all they will do is cause me to pull 4th and go over 140 MPH. Might be good for a couple of 10ths though.
-
do you have a matching set of 4.3's charlie ?
-
yeah i always like to cross my bridges when i come to them...no point spending cash when ya dont have to. The front diff gears can be done in the car anyway Charlie. We did ours on a hoist in about 2 hrs.
-
Stock diff gears all round...but the OS gearset has a slightly different 3rd ratio (1.236)and is 1.302 STD...the extra revs help as well. I know that not pulling 4th keeps me under the 140 MPH mark which allows me to keep racing and not have the extra expense and hassle of getting the car fitted with a chute.
-
Ohh yeah, its a bit of wheel work to keep it straight but its definately a buzz. Blazing through the traps at 138+ MPH in the top of 3rd aint too bad either.
-
One of them is called Ben, he rips a mean skid and is a top bloke...so you have one thing in common with him.
-
thanks guys...Charlie you missed a great day

Ran the car again at WSID yesterday....and well what a day. I now have a very competitive racecar that i can compete with very experienced drivers. Running the car within a 10th of a second each pass and only have to "learn" the lights a little more to start winning events. here's the rundown 1st qualifier...stupid me forgets that the boost controller is switched off and only have 12psi of boost 60' 1.595 ET 11.064 MPH 127.35 2nd qualifier...got full boost now, its game on. Run a PB 60' 1.429 ET 9.972 (PB) MPH 138.09 3rd qualifier...run within a hundreth of a second to previous pass 60' 1.435 ET 9.985 MPH 138.76 1st round eliminator...running against an 8sec rotor on slicks and nominate 9.95 dial in. I cut a slow 0.4 light but the rotor driver completely misses the start. I have the run in the bag so back off at 1/2 track and cruise to victory. 60' 1.430 ET 10.828 MPH 91.48 2nd round eliminator...running against a 8 sec mazda with a big NOS guzzling V8 on slicks (Stewie's mate from the gong). Cut a 0.08 light and race is over by 3/4 track...another win to the GTR. 60' 1.479 ET 10.108 MPH 137.72 3rd round eliminator...running against a 2 door Valiant with another NOS fed V8 auto on slicks...very accurate car and a very experienced driver (i have to beat him on the lights). Miss the lights by 0.348 and he wins by 0.341...damn... ahh well did very well for my 1st bracket meet. 60' 1.412 (PB) ET 10.063 MPH 138.83 (PB) A big thanks to Jim and Con from Croydon Racing for pesisting with the car on Friday night. We had intercooler hoses blowing off on the dyno and had to change all the hose clamps to keep them on. But by 9 o'clock friday night they had it all sorted. This cars results is a testament to their ability to provide us with a car that has repeatable performance. Now that they are playing more of a role with development (instead of just being our tuner) of the car, its starting to pay big dividends on raceday. Soon Jim will be fitting the Autronic ECU to enhance the performance as well as providing us with some much needed data from the runs. A two-step ignition cut launch control will see 60' times fall even further and will see the car 60'ing in the 1.3's. Only Mark Jacobsen 60's quicker than us on radials now.

DONT use redline shockproof in a new synchro gearbox....a good quality 75-90 gearbox oil such as Castrol Syntrax will do the job. Redline Shockproof is not suited to synchromesh gearboxes.
-
we had the car on the dyno tonight and had hoses blowing off it everywhere....i fixed a boost leak yesterday that was limiting us to 25psi. Now it sees 27-28psi and with the boost controller turned "off" makes 17 more KW than before 360 previous now 377. should be good for another 9 tomm/today. over 500 AWKW now.
