  1. Lovely Doublely. You will need to tell me when she is getting a tune so I can come and have a look. What is the run in proceedure going to be ? I ran mine in a bit on the dyno then finished it off at the drags, LOL
  2. The 2nd gear launch felt much better BUT the 60 ft was 2,347, the wheel tramp put me off as it gave the car a good shaking at the top of 2nd gear, I thinkl I backed off a bit and it started to tramp, I should have kept up it in hindsight, time will tell. Did it look like I had the right revs on launch?
  3. Thanks for the tips mate, Im sure with some more seat time Ill eventually get there.
  4. AAAARRRGGGG. Best run was 12.105 @ 126 mph I missed gears ( 2nd to 5th is not a good thing), still stupid amounts of wheel spin, I then was given the good word to start in second which would have worked better with more revs as I stalled launching off the line. I eventually got a good run on my last pass, started in 2nd, launched at 6000rpm, it felt good till I got some wheel tramp, still it was my best launch and time. My next time out should be better still as Im starting to get the hang of it, I just need to slip the clutch a little longer instead of getting off the throttle as I think this is what caused the wheel tramp. Over all a fun night. 11.99999999999999 next time maybe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least Nick had some good times.
  5. The weather is looking good.
  6. Its because its got a GM motor in it, LOL.
  7. QFT
  8. No cheating for me mate,LOL. Ill be running the 255/40 17 Hankooks RS3,s (UTQG 140) again, Im sure with some patience and slipping of the clutch I can brake into the 11,s on them. Im still running .75 deg of neg camber on them ATM, next time Ill get them flat and see what that does. Eventually Ill get me some Drag Radials and go for gold (i.e booted off for doing a 10 in a regoed RWD Boat)
  9. If it helps my time I will put out a f**king spinnaker............
  10. Wednesday 5 September Summary Min 11 Max 27 Becoming windy. Sunny. Chance of any rain: 20% Rainfall amount: 0 mm http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/forecasts/sydney.shtml http://www.bom.gov.au/products/national_radar_sat.loop.shtml Im confident, LOL, famous last words.....
  11. The weather looks good, Im going to again try for 11.999999999999999999999999999. Who else is keen. DO IT
  12. I did a system restore thingie and now all is well in the world. Thanks for the help, I really should learn more about computers, but then that would get in the way of me sitting on the lounge doing nothing when Im at home.
  13. Word Remember all the bits and pieces like oil pumps, water pumps, power steering pumps, belts, mods on exhaust ect ect. Im not saying dont do it, just find someone who has and get all the good news from them. My 2530 rocks, only thing I wish was different was that I used a NEO head.
  14. You did mean a Karate chop didnt you. Only POV kids street race, to poor to go to the track or the drags and to scared that their hecktic car will be smoked in front of a audience.
  15. Nah, mate thats not it, I hit the little square button up top but it doesnt fix anything, I might end up taking it to a shop, or hitting it with a hammer
  16. Do the other clutches come with a new lightened flywheel, release (thrust) bearing and flywheel bolts. The NISMO Super Coppermix does. copypasta http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/competition/clutch/sctwin.html
  17. Also as you can see, when I click on the MLR thingie on the top right it just turns white and nothing happens. Thanks, Mark
  18. Um, you want me to shit on the computer screen ?? OK, Ill do it now but Im not sure if that will help. Seriously, I have no idea what your on about, me no speaky computer
  19. Inter-club events maybe, might help to knock the costs down a bit. My 2 cents is: Timed track day, discounted, members only, once a year, run a comp, give prizes like shirts or hats. group 1 unrego race cars group 2 rego 4wd Turbo group 3 rego RWD Turbo group 4 rego NA Texi (yes as yet I havent made one with a car yet) Motakhana (ON GRASS) Drags (if WSID cost to much to hire then lets do a unofficial member attack on a wendsday night, the benifit of this is if it rains we pay for nothing and organise another night) Servicing days (get together for a BBQ and oil change, bleed brakes, minor maintenance type of stuff, and a Beer or a Scotch) At some of these events we could have a swap meet to get rid of unwanted parts or pick up some bits and peices.
  20. I tried to fit it by the screen resolution thingie but it seems to just make things worse. It started after I clicked some link in the wasteland the other day. It seems to work fine on some sites and not others. Remember guys, I know f all abouts the way of the computars so please dumb it down for me. Thanks, Mark
  21. Whats the car ? I use to fill my R33 RB25 about 10mm above the hatching on the dip stick for track days.
  22. 1.) Check that the oil level is at the Max mark on the dip-stick 2.) Coolant – ensure the overflow/reservoir is full 3.) Brake Fluid – bleed brakes and ensure the fluid is at the Max marking in the reservoir 4.) Clutch Fluid – ensure the fluid is at the Max marking in the reservoir 5.) Check that all pipe-work is secure and no hoses are becoming loose 6.) Check that your battery is secure and does not move 7.) Before closing the bonnet, make sure that all caps are on and secure 8.) Ensure you have suitable material left on your brake pads 9.) Ensure tyres are in good condition 10.) Check wheel nuts 11.)Keep a eye on your tyre pressure 12.) A fire extinguisher is a handy thing to have just in case 13.)Just take it easy 14.) Someone with a camera 15.)Be prepared to have a huge amount of fun
