Kiwi 7 Second Gtr

[blk180]

car ran 8.4@186mph!!!!!!! aswell earlier

[khezz]

From some of the stuff I read, The gtr700 ran petrol and HKS gtr ran HKS race fuel which is close to petrol. All 3 run air to air intercoolers with gtr 700 and heat treatment both running the super thick trust drag spec items (like kier wilson). Dont know if the GTR-700 will race this month against reece but it is aparently got a whole new engine ready to go. Cant wait to see reece run though. luck for me the plane tickets are cheap cause every one is buying up to go to melbourne. I think the new record should be a given. If all goes well i reckon we might even see a low 7.

Huh thats finished?

The car is nearly ready - we are just having a tuning issue.

Methanol IS NOT easy. Apparantly Reece took a year to get the tune

right using methanol as we are just finding out now.

ok.. wat i want to know is WHO MAKES THE 15 INCH RIMS THESE CARS RUN!!!!! i have not found a 15inch rim that will clear r33 gtst rear brake setup

[rb26s13]

also seeing as most of these guys arent running some old ford steelies.. gtr700 runs a set of 5 spoke 15's from memorY??

7.57 @ 305 km yesterday

[blk180]

advan RGs is what GTR 700 had and munro looks to have R32 GTR rims on his car in pic.

[Munro]

Fark........ 7.57.... that is just amazing, wish I was there to see it.

I remember being at Drag Combat in May 2002 when the HKS

GTR was there. 7 second GTRs are just awesome.

I dont actually have a set of wheels for my GTR at the moment. The ones in the photos are off Keir's GTR so we can roll it around. I have Carbon brakes on it so we can fit 15" rims if we decide to run slicks at some stage. We are just using std 17" R33 GTR rims on the car for the dyno. I had some nice gold TE37s a while ago, but I sold them as the car was not being used for so long.

[Munro]

I tried to get some 15" Advans a while ago, but was told they stopped making them.

Keir uses a 15" US Weld racing rim to run slicks on, they may not fit the R33 gtst though

because of the offset. Shouldn't be too hard to borrow some centerlines or weldies & play around

with them to see it they fit. If only they made 16 or 17" slicks. It would make life much easier

for sport compact racing.

Amen.

Holy Shit John that looks amazing!

Can't wait to see it up and running however I guess AIR being up in no mans land at the moment doesn't help!

Either way i hope its here that you run it first if AIR get saughted

[GT-R LM]

Yeah very nice any more pics John ?

What sort of times are you going for? slicks/street tyres?

Goodluck wth he tuning:)

[Munro]

After so long off the road, I just want to get it finished & race it.

[Munro]

If AIR doesn't open soon, I may just take it interstate once to test it,

& then sell the car complete. It is a shame, but no point having a GTR

like this & not being able to use it regularly.

No intercooler?

[shanef]

yeh whats the go with the plenum feeding into the turbo?

[Cubes]

That Kiwi GTR sounds like an Auto. is it?

[BBGTR]

No intercooler?

Methanol boys, you don't need one.....

[r33_racer]
