Yeah from experience the 4,6 and Rotor Cruise is always the biggest of the year i find.

Lets just hope its not as hot as it was last year!

That sucked ass so much!

But seeing Keir run a 8.9 on friday nights testing was the highlight of the weekend!

Everyone able to go one the cruise? and i assume they don't like people being stupid on these cruises -> always read the section in the trading post for the cruise

Well honestly i didn't go on last years cruise but i did the year before and all i noticed was 2 cars get pulled over and the were literally 100's everywhere!

As far as the "behaving" i mean they obviously would like everyone as behaved as possible but that doesn't really happen.

However like i said its the most enjoyable cruise i have ever been on.

I'm planning on running my Crown at the meet.

I'll probably be doing my licencing passes on the friday night T'n'T.

Cheers

Sean :)

Nice, will have come out at see what she can do off the dyno, hey you reckon i can sit in the back again? :P

I'm planning on entering if everything goes according to plan. I won't be that exciting to watch (low 12 maybe an 11 if I'm lucky) but it should be fun as I've changed quite a bit since last time I ran.

If the last two years are anything to go by it will be a hot one :huh: 2004 - 48'C

Yeah I know what you mean Will. I had a look at the MT Drag Radial while waiting to picking up some bits from Outlaw Speed Shop the other day. They look awesome and with that tread pattern they may even handle a bit of minimal road use - even trundling around in the wet perhaps?

How much for a set (rear only) of 275/40/17? With the money I've spent on the car over the last 6mths I probably shouldn't - but the rears need upgrading/replacing this year anyway :D

Ask Keir - I'm pretty sure that's the size they're using now.

They may even have a few cheap 1/2 used sets lying about before you decide to shell for them.

Down side is although they are radial, and DOT approved, this does NOT make them road legal in SA.

Up side is RWD Commodores have been known to get 1.5x sec 60' times on them - I got 1.74 with my mild combo.

the crown is nuts missed out on it last dyno day :P best of luck with it

Feel free to come and have a stickybeak if you see it out in the paddock at AIR mate. :)

I'm just finishing reassembly this morning after putting a set of ARP 2JZ Supra head studs in it. Given the state of the gasket, It looks like that on boost it's been leaking combustion pressure out cyls 1 & 6 for quite a while probably. (the stock plastic region head bolts a pretty weak)

I've also just fitted up a DC Electric water pump and controller, which will allow me to run the motor about 15deg colder than the stock thermostat-which should deliver a bit more power and allow me to cool the car down between runs.

Seeyou there

Sean

Hook it up and run a 9!!!

I can't wait to see it!

How was your Xmas and NewYears Chops? Good I hope mate.

I'll give it a red-hot go at least. It ran the 10.4 on 20 psi, and has now recorded 447rwkw on 23psi-with the head gasket leaking pretty badly (studs and EWP should deliver another 25-40rwkw.)

I'm changing the diff ratio up to a 3.08 from 3.23 too as was running out of revs. The 3.08 and more power should see it close to (if not over) 140mph-which is parachute territory. :angry::)

See you there :)

Sean

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
