There may well be plenty of cars that are street legal that do 8's 9's 10's, whatever.

This isnt one of them.

thanks mate,now i know.didnt know he was your mate,still it would be cool if it was street legall :unsure:

was there last wednesday and saw the run, congrats bobbo is one hell of a car... We were perplexed (pun intended) at the 10.26 @ 197 kph though, as to get a low 10 sec pass you'd need to be trapping at well over 23kph.. You missed 5th true but still to me doesn't explain the speed.. Did they stuff up the MPH perhaps? The ET is definitely correct...

EVL R33,

It's possible to have a low trap speed for the time if you didn't need to push the car to obtain it (car is capable of much faster times). I'd say given the slow terminal this thing has perhaps a mid 9 in it, with all things being somewhat equal.

Not any more, considering I saw it last night in WA.

Met the new owner Danny last night, top bloke, car is immaculate as well.

Yeah I was down there on the night also, 'Run Me' is definately here although sporting new plates...Car looks awesome!

Saw a few of Bobbos starts from pit lane, pretty damn impressive, made my 11 second pass.....okay okay 11.9 :) look like i was just driving to the shops :)

I think the low MPH was due to the miss of 5th gear, if you look at the vid on youtube you can see for approx 50m before the line the car is just rolling, hence i would have lost speed. thats what i put it down to.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
