Hey guys i'll bring my line there tomorrow for the first time just to see what its capable of. My recipe for some embarassing times is: 18' rim with 265 tyres, super sore ass hard suspension and the stupid vvt that always drop power/boost at around 5000 rev. Anyway regardless of the crappy set up hope to see the regulars there for some tips and hopefully can break into the 13s. See yas

IF you see 2 red R31 SVD GTS skylines come say Hello I am only supporting my friend but we have identical cars except he has the 3l compared to my 2.5

out of us I currently am quicker with a 13.3 but he is only 2/10's behind with a 13.5 he also has about a extra 40 horses so that could change the standings tomorrow

Everyone thinking about going to WSID worried about the rain;

I'm in Blacktown (about 5-10 min from WSID) and it hasn't rained at all here so far today. It's a little overcast but not looking too threatening at this stage, I'll post up if I notice any rain...

As expected I couldnt get better than 14.7 coz too much wheel spin 1st gear :) shown by 60' 2.4 Still cant get over granny shifting . . . but I know there's room for some improvements with more practice hehe. Nice to meet up with Moana & DHC and others before the races. Some very nice results from everyone

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
