  1. Hi Guy's

    Thanks for the support its great.

    jnr32r...I'm launching at around 5500 to 6000 rpm.

    FATGTS-R ,with the power you have I dont think you will have any problems getting low 12's high 11's as for the suspension ,I dont think that will be too much of a problem as I run really stiff suspension no squat at all im told of the line.I'm running M/T street radials as well and am still playing with air presures atm but that run they were set at 14psi and hooked up well

    I do hope in the future to improve on my time maybe low 11's would be good ,diff is real noisey after wednesday night so maybe time to stick the gtr diff in.Its just the start of the season so I've got plenty of time ,good luck to all trying for better times I'm happy with mine for the time being

    Cheers Peter

  2. Had a run at wsid 2 weeks ago first run though I broke the hicas lock . Couldnt figger out why the car felt like it had egg shaped tyres ,One wheel was flappen in the breeze steering itself,Was my first run in 18months so still gotta get some more practice in yet but still ran 12.5 looking for a better pb this wednesday hopefully .Second run I bogged it of the line only ran a 13.4,so still go some work to go b4 I get there, only had the 2 runs cause I found the hicas problem then so called it a night

    Cheers Peter

  3. There's some sound advice in this thread for you ,none of them easy and all will take time .Its not just a matter of getting rid of the car for if they take it back they will sell it for what ever they can get , be $2 or $2000 they dont care, you will still be left paying the rest of and no car as well .The money still owing if you dont pay it back will be on your credit referance so you find it very hard to get another loan in the future be it car or home

    Its good to have dreams of driving your car on the track but you might have to put them on hold a while your only young so you have plenty of time for this .

    There's a few way you can go to help you reduce some of the debt you have ,! as baron has said earn more money ,get a casual job as well as the one you have for a little extra cash ,sell of some performance parts you might have or maybe other things you might have that can earn some extra $$$$$

    Another option that might help too is to go to a you bank or who-ever you have borrowed from try to consolidate all the money's you owe into 1 loan spread ot over a lengther time period so repayments are more managable for you .(I would go for this option only if all else fails as it will just cost you more in the long run )

    Lastly work to a budget it you keep the car ,it will be no good to you if you cant afford to run it , repair it ,or drive it .A stock car will get you anywhere you want to go even a race track

  4. Was checked out after serious crash rear housing was cracked welded and machined rear housing checked shafts for beds checked all sincros and gears for wear and chiped teeth .All was good though execpt for rear housing and did a good job on that no leaks and sincros were all good $250.Or another guy I used at st Marys was bears diff and gearbox he set the rear diff up after gear ratio change and checked the bearings he was $200.His at link rd St Marys

  5. This is quite intresting both my sons have had it, most of the people at work have had it ,I get people coughing ,spluttering and sneezing all around me all day and the only thing I get is a cold once in a while thats normally gone in a couple days and thats normally cause i stand in front of the air conditioner to cool of after sweating all day.

    Havnt had a sick day in over 10years that I can remember and cant remember b4 that anyway .Only time I've had of is normally strains, banged up or industiral accident . Only bring this up cause the human imune system is amazing it think how some get sick and others dont when its all around them

    cheers Peter

  6. Oil Problem found, pumping oil out the rockers into the air box never had a problem with the old standard oil pump but the N1 pump must be pumping a lot more oil around the engine .Only loseing oil on the low side breather not the high side so will have to put a restrictor in that side

  7. Axle tramp bad ,it's where your tyre's bounce up and down when you launch it of the line and feels like the car is falling apart,you either have to power through it, which is hard to do as first instinct is to back off or back of and give it to it again either way you loose time

  8. Yeah was good meeting you to Chris, always nice to put names to faces .havn't looked to see where the oil was leaking from as yet but wasn't leaking when I got home and oil pressure was still good so bit of a mystery but I'll find it and be out there again to get that pb.Was happy with my first run of 12.5 though after so long.Putting pineapples in fixed my axle tramp problem in the drag position
