my fastest for the night was

ET - 12.285

Terminal - 111.94mph

Reaction - 0.690

60' - 2.034

was a little higher boost than my street setting (ran it at 1.1bar)

I considered it a win for the night as it was a good virgin run for the R and I didn't break anything!

With some quick times posted and I think we surprised some of the trev's. Good turn out and variety of cars... Paul really put the "turn" in "turn out"... tonight I pray that someone has that on film!

Top work Paul, 125mph is massive, thats making some huge power.

My first run in the new R, kept the AVC-R switched off (0.9bar) and still ran 110mph.

Unfortunately the long first gear ratio of the OS cross set box combined with the 2835's means that even a limiter launch bogs down. 2.1 was my best 60' of the night.

Will be good to see what it runs when it's tuned and boosted next thursday.

i think dan may have got paul's spin on vid, but im not sure

apparently a 125mph is good enough for a 10 second pass - but he just couldn't get the power down. Watching him race and he was spinning it still on half track - but one 'advantage' of the power meant that he did some awesome burnouts

a few of you guys did some limiter bashing burnouts - sounded and looked good :P

AND michael ended up running with his hazards on, and lost to paul in the same race :P

Yes, after the first pass on slicks and a close call with the wall I was relagated to using street tyres, which didn't make for any fast times, but still a great night.

If someone has footage of the spin then please post it up :)

In a total of 4 passes I spun, shredded my wheel nuts, and blew off my intercooler hose. But it could have been much worse. At least I gave the commentators something to chat about :kiss:

well only managed the one run due to stoopid gearshaft issues which caused a join with team breakdown along with paully and mitchy

then drove home playing find the gear 1st and 4th mostly but it was still a good night

top turnout for the club with some very respectable times as well hope everyone enjoyed themselves

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
