hey col what where your 60ft time because if your running 131mph your 60s must be real bad (like 3)

i do 2.2 60ft and still manage to run 12.7 @ 110mph

cheers

joe

Yeah my 131mph pass was a 2.8 60 foot and i missed 2nd gear for a split second...

Col - you won't spin the MT 255x50x16 drag radials, I'm using even smaller 225x50x16 Hoosier radials and provided I heat them up properly I can't spin them - do easy 1.7's 60" on both of these tyres.

Yeah i hope so... Ill have a chat to them tomorrow...

The guy with the EAT IT Silvia was able to spin his 255's and i think he is on similar power...

So ill make a phoen call and see what they suggest...

I would ideally love to use stock 16" skyline rims, so the 225's would be the go, but I may need the width...

I have been doing some research tonight and found this on willowbanks website;

Sedans faster than 130mph (208 kph):

* Five-point harness required (incorporating crotch strap).

I was telling Shane last night, when I ran my 131mph pass an official met me at the bottom of the tower he looked in the car and noted on the time slip that there was no roll cage or harness. He then said if I break 130mph again than I would be asked to cease the event...

NOTE: I thought at the time he said 135mph and thats what I was talking about with Shane as I had not heard that rule before...

But the guy did mumble a bit, he may have said 130mph

He grabbed all my info at the time and took details like rego and colour and basic description of the car, he also kept my time slip putting all the info on the back of it and said to email to get a copy fo the slip...

Now i found this above about needing a 5 point harness...

:Worried:

I dont want to put a 5 point harness in, and I will have to change the seat and probablly put a cage in to make it all work properly... :happy:

What do you guys think???

if u wanna see what u can get out of ur car col, but dont want full time cage and harness etc. get a half cage (so u can remove it) get bucket seat that can accept harness, and get a harness, and just put them in when u go to the drags. therefore u dont have to get ur car re-registered as a 2 seater (u would if u kept the cage and bucket seat in) however, u can get adr/street legal racing harnesses and reclining bucket seats.

My 255s where spinning as they where on 20-22psi of tyre pressure - my tyre pressure gauge lied and i thought they where on 15psi...

The best 60 foot i have gotten out of them was a 1.60 with 16psi tyre pressure and i ran an 11.1@131mph like that - i didnt get an official talking to, but i did quit while i still had my stock box in-tact - damn sr20 gearboxes!

You need a few things for 130mph+ but if you dont crack into the 10 they shouldnt really bother you. I guess that will change now due to the recent fatality - so i wont be going back there for a month or two, which works out good cause i need to get a bigger tune put in...

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      Ogura orc1000f vs Osg tr2cd vs Osg r3c experiences, max torque/max hp?

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      By uchoa · Posted

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
