I'm talking anything.

I'm sure there would be a couple of tube 350zeds over in the states running 6's by now.

The Zs are VQ series - the drag ones do not have RB motors dropped into them, though there are a couple in the build that I am aware of over there. Aren't Rigoli's building a RWD drag one as well?? There is a RWD tube frame drag car based on an RB30/26 hybrid in NZ at the moment as well.

The fastest would have to be the old HKS S13 with the RB26, did a low 7 if I remember rightly... years ago.

You've been under a rock for a month? :no: HKS got chopped by Reece in the 32 GTR :)

Ummm my rock is particually comfortable... My bad...

There is a 6 second 350z in the states but its not an RB... Its not really a 350z either its basiclly a top door slammer, tubular body with a fibreglass shell over it... It has a massive blower hanging out of the hood which is a dead give away that it is certainlly not an RB. You will generally find a big block V8 under those shells...

I know of a 350z in the states with an rb26 with twin t67's, pro rwd tube car running 7.1 at 189 ish mph

its doesnt run sport compact

there are only 3 cars running in NHRA sport compact and NOPI and all 3 are 2j powered, if you cant run in the 6.4 region, you may aswell not show up

OMG did anyone ask about 2j powered cars or sports compact

Incase you didn't notice this is a skyline forum and at a wild guess we are partial to RB power, speaking for myself and I'd say 2/3 the forum we don't give a stuff about you, your car or 2j/1j power especially when your record holding 1j times aren't as fast as the Rb25 times posted in that other thread

It maybe a little harsh, but 1JZ.747 comments are almost always somehow related to toyota/toyota motors with some bagging of RB motors whether direct or indirect.

I wonder if there are similar people on toyota forums who do the same thing?

you cut me deep, real deep GET SET

PRO RWD is a term used on sport compact racing not conventional forms of drag racing. he used the term PRO RWD. hence why i made the comment there are only 3 cars running in PRO RWD and none of them are RB powered, so old mate gtr88 may have mistaken his info.

at this point in time there is one street tired RB25 in this country faster than me and thats ryan quinn at 10.12 and 136 mph, so pound for pound me with no motor work aint bad at 10.17 and 137 mph at 3500 pounds.

i come on this forum and post in the drag racing forum as there are plenty of like minded guys, ie, twoogle, 2rismo, buster, who we all race against each other and have great friendships.

i couldn't give 2/3rds of a dirty brown shit whether you give a stuff or not.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
