Matt,

Sorry about yer run last night buddy, you'll get 'em next time.

Anyways, I have put up a post on the LS1 forum to gain interest for this meet, from people that i have spoken to the general consensus is "BRING IT ON"...

Cheers

Mat

I should be in pending on date obviously : )

Off topic, what do u guys launch at. I was trying a few launches tonight with my mate and best i could get between 6.2-6.5 0-100

I can feel that there is alot of improvement there so hopefully i will dip into the 5's.

Bear in mind it was with a stop watch and ive only had the car on the road for 3 days : )

Good stuff people - glad to see you're all keen :P After the 05Apr street meet it easy to see why!

Matt,

Thanks mate - for both the assistance on the AIR day & the kind words after my sad effort at the street meet :P

Clint,

The shift light is a unit made by Pivot (Jap brand name) See here - 1000500591hi.jpg & here - http://www.autospeed.com/shop/category_176...761/browse.html

It's designed as a cigarette lighter plug-in but I cut the plug off & hard wired it in. Works well, especially when you hit the limiter under w/spin! Oh yeah, it's red in the pic/ad but mine came with a blue lens!

I've seen you take off before - you'll put some of the guys to shame.Once you have 1 run under your belt you will be loving it - trust me. (BTW - sorry about the 3am SMS - I pressed the wrong key)

Erica,

More likely to be 50 (or even less) people private. I was chatting to Ivan again earlier today & he didn't make any mention of advertising beyond our forum groups + a few of his regular customers.

Good onya' Chris. That's the spirit :D

Good to see you made it to the forums 32godzilla! (Bit of SAUSA advertising at the drags never goes astray!) Very nice times too! You'll have to come out cruising ....

32godzilla - was that you I ran against in the bracket when I did the 9.50? Was sitting on the start line waiting,waiting for my green light & loved reeling in another set of stovetop lights.

Was looking at the datalogging tonight & even though the trap speed was 153mph(245km) I didnt back off till at least 265 in 6th gear well after the line!!!

After reading Martins comment on page 93 of HPI.29 I couldn't believe it when a "$50,000 torana" lined up next to me on the next run.Even though the GTR was all over the place I couldn't back off & let him go, so I fought the steering in every gear & took him at the line.I'm not sure if there was more than a metre

between our door handles over the line & I know which car would be more fun to drive.

G'day & welcome 32godzilla,

Does a certain Yamaha bike have anything to do with your car ;) ? If so then I was just behind & to the left of you in the line up lanes Sat night - nice 32R mate :) Nice time too! Hey can I borrow your traction advantage :P

Likewise SR910,

Yep mate it's on a weekend. So your in :)

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
