So what's the latest? Saw that Cressida boat running last Friday, only saw one run but it looked like he hit the brakes hard and a mediocre launch? Still did a low 10 - had it already run a 9 and would be booted if dipped into the 9's again?

Any word on Dirt hitting the track?

gee, when did i run a nine? i must have been asleep when that happened.

its run 13 10.00 at 146 mph but i havent run a nine yet.

on the pass you saw i had to get off it twice in second gear and then when it tyre shook again in third i got off it and ran a 10.2 at 109 mph 115.8 mph to half track. some 2 mph up at half track on when i went 146mph. we had the car for a 9.4xx at 150.8mph, just we didnt have the track to do it. cant wait to wind more boost into it. :cheers:

Hah, I got there late and that was the only run I saw you do. Was pretty impressive, looked like a very very easy 9 second pass *if* there was no backing off. I had thought you might have been pedaling it just to stay in the 10's if you didn't have the rest of the ANDRA gear to be teched for 9.99+. Still, making a buttload more power than last year. No trans problems this time?

had to pedal it as te track was shit and didnt want to put the car into the wall.

the pass you saw it tyre shook in second and third gear.

it ran 115 to half track an 109 full track. so yes there was an easy mid nine if the track was there.

the car is teched and has the chute on.

as for the box, it needs a billett converter, its slipping badly in third gear. tyres are still mickey t street radials.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
