I am awake because i got kicked out of the hotel...it seems they take offence to the guy that does the door knock at 4am screanmng "Weak carnts, get UP!!!!! SARK PISS!!!!: so i am at an internt cafe waiting for my boss to come to my rescue and find me new accomodation

I think the first time Pete ran was like really shocking, 14s something, second wasn't much better for some reason. When he went back in for some fine setting with Al i think and came back out thats' when i left.

Saw the Stag with SAU sticker, good work mate, think he did like mid 14 and left for the day.

High light of the night has to be the GTR, bloody animal. It ran 10,4 on some skinny tyre by the glance it said RE7...something. Too many cars at Calder.

There were some absolute animals down there... I dont know what the names of the cars were but alot of old skool holden and ford muscle that were FAKING LOUD, consistent 9 and 10 second passes. The Dalton pro drag RX7 FD was there and ran a 7.9 :(

The OH Performance r32 GTR was did run an awesome 10 second pass. It's good to see a nice tuned straight six whistling off the launch and run similar times but soo much quieter than those big old loud holdens and fords :P

Peter ran a 13.6, then a 14.1, then finished up with his best run of the night of 13.071.... soo close to getting that much wanted 12 second pass. Nevermind, next time Pete :D

A couple of white MKIV Supras in the 14's :lol:

Yamaha R1 did a few 11second passes.

Thanks to TomG for helping me locate a bolt I dropped in my engine bay when i was fitting my air filter back on :lol:

And big thanks to Daz for hanging out and talking shit all night while perving on the talent :P

hahahaha Troy you're a clown. that's a pissa :lol:

Here is my thread in the Stagea forum,

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=101824

best was 14.7@92mph

Not too shabby if I say myself. Standard SS's and XR6T's were just not able to crack into the 14's, they were doing low 15's. So... there we go.

I got there about 5:00, had four runs by 7 and then left just as Bass just arrived as it was getting wayy too busy/cbf'ed running more times...i knew what my beast was capable of :P

Oh Okay.

A report

Well, it ws super busy at Calder.

First run, did a 13.6 with like a 2.5 60ft. The track was soo much grippier than I though. 1.6 mph Launched at about 4000 rpm

Second run, blazed it on the launch, to many revs at about 6000. once it hooked up, I got that mad rush of crazy acceleration you get when you are at full boost, about 5000rpm and silly silly grip levels.

blasted down to a 14.1.... but at 112 mph!!!!

Third run, I did a 2nd gear 7000rpm clutch dump burnout. Then got off the line with about 5000 rpm on board, almost let the clutch out to fast and bogged down but a little jab kept the revs up. Ran to a 13.3 at about 106 I think.

Fourth and final run, another 2nd gear burnout (from which I could later smell some serious clutch burny burny smell) and a reasonable launch again with that good traction feeling.

Ran to a 13.071 at 108 mph.

All in all, I hate the world. I will be going back to Calder at some stage this summer to run my 12 goddamn it!

I watched as several big v8s, ran 12.4 - 12.7 with trap speeds of like 109, so there's mid 12s in my car somewhere, I've just got to give it the right shoes!

Brisby. I ran street tyres. Couldn't be arse picking your wheels up after the shinanigans with the Lada!!!

Ill Be Back

BASS OUT

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
