Fantastic project Fatz!!! Should be a real goer!anything you need just let me know. I think that a low budget race car project like this would be great fun to follow - might even surprise some people with there shiny cars.Keep us all posted.

BTW - my brother has numerous dead corollas & datsuns in our back paddock thrash track & would be happy to donate diffs etc for spares!

I read a thread linked in this forum where they get an accord or somfing to run 14's... had to totally strip the bastard... but NO NEW PARTS WERE ADDED.

I think we can do this to project Fast Fatz Corrie Racing.

just take 4 to 80 blokes and the correct amount of cans (one slab per driver... spectators more) and the best part is we could make a zorst that would be really quite at EC drags.... unless you were in Melb! (were the zorst finished) then might be a bit noisy!!!

I need another beer... any one got a spare?

the drag car has been delayed due to reliability

eg b- ban bought the bastard of me however i have it from the horses mouth that his car will be back on the road in a month or so and we can once again start the drag project again ill buy it back off him for the pricy sum of a mars bar and a can of coke

i will keep you posted

howver having just bouht a 1500watt angle ginder i feel the car will be a convertible drag car

maybe ill takeit to summernats next year

yea baby

pete

Pete, the drag project lives - And you can have it back for a mars bar wrapper (j/k) :P

As soon as I do what ever I decide to do with my half dead R33 beast, then it's back on as the weapon 8 second rolla.

PS- Got your VM message - sounding very good ! Thanks heaps !

Cos' Brendan now has the project car I guess you can now come out of the closet and revert to the original drag project - I have trouble with the concept of you in a tight mini skirt, wig and make-up.

However if thats what you need to do I guess we could get used to it.

    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40
    • I should have prefaced all of this with "I'd really like to not pull anything out of the car for this" 
    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
