SORRY guys i didnt make it, i had my alarm getting installed today and as always nothing gets done on time.

i was shattered and i still have to wait untill tuesday for the alarm.

Is it bad to use my 19s???? I thought the bigger the wheel the more faster you go?

oh yeah i also have a apexi pod filter, if that helps.

If that is a serious statement i better set the record straight.

The bigger the wheel, the heavier it is, also the more force/power needed to get it moving. Due to the small profile there is no give in the tyre, thus will break traction more easily. 19's are just for show, they are bad for everything else. I am not bagging you as i also have 19's on my Skyline.

The Apexi pod will not improve anything until you are making over 230rwkw, that's where the std air box becomes a restriction. In fact your pod is probably loosing you some performance, as you probably have it open in the engine bay, free to suck in all that hot air. A pod always should to be enclosed in a custom box with a big cold air feed, from the front bar.

Hope to see ya next time at Calder

emsta: Calder Park Rwy, is just off the Calder Fwy, near Taylors Lakes, Hillside, etc., just before Sunbury.

On a Friday night, it is $20 to spectate and $55 to enter your car. To compete you will need to where long paint, long sleeved top, runners/shoes, and a Helmet (which can be hired).

NICE BURNOUT
At first i was like "WTF is he talkin about" Then i looked at my post :)

PS: Thanks ;) Compliments of DECA skid pan.

If you are going to buy rims, you'd be better off buying a set of 17 x 9 for the rear. I have a set of 4, 17in rims for sale (mis-matched pairs, great for drag, drift and drag ;) ), rear are new and only been used twice, fronts are s/h and in good condition, $300 for all 4, no tyres :P

Had to upgrade due to my latest Brembo brake upgrade :D.

No rush, but i am going to advertise them once i get my replacement rims and the first person with cash will get rims.

Yes, S15 and Skylines have the same stud pattern

SIF 17's are best

smaller the better, more sidewall, more flex, more traction

i has R33 wheels if you want... provided Ronin aint gonna borrow em, crap rubber $150... but yeah... Ronin has dibs if he needs to use them to move his car around :)
