I went out there with a friend to film his ute.

i took my gtr out but didnt run. i dont find drag racing that interesting. but wouldnt mind doing it once so i can be a sick c**t.

i filmed two guys out there, one in a black gtr that was fairly stock by the looks of it, you did a great last run which i dont think i got on film

and the red one, i got you a few times also but it seemed your launches were letting you down.

if you want the footage i have i will rip it off the camera later today and send it to you, (if your on here) let me know.

Warned for an 11.8 WTF. so you need to tack the cooler piping. tell me when, i will come over and you can do mine as well :happy:

Ha, I'm going to get those tuff clamps from just jap to enclose that massive 1.25 bar of BOOOOOOst psi!!!

It gave me the s$%ts.

Yeah, run quicker than 12sec now and you need andra license $120, I'm sure.

I didn't get towed! It drove under it's own NA power!

Got a best time of 12.4. Revving it too far for turbos power band, I guess.

Worst 23.0 NA baby!!!

Michael's black GTR ran a 11.8 and got warned!

Oh na power on the gtr is loads of fun :(

now i know why i dont want to go drag racing. the 45 bucks will soon turn into $165 i think i'd rather a track day :D

i'm going to check out pritek for some clamps mine are giving me the shits too.

only clamps worth buying imo: sard dual bead clamps. not too hard on the wallet either. i have put them on the GTR and have never blown a hose in 3 years...

No need to go for Sard specifically - Pirtek sells some serious clamps which I have used on the GTR and my S14 in the past and they never let me down.

yeah it's just that sard are the only ones I've seen that have 2 beads which means they will hold a good seal with much less physical force (no need to tighten them up to buggery like with the single bead clamps). you are right, there is no reason conventional clamps wont work fine if used properly though.

its the problem with conventional ones they are like a use once and replace deal. but they definatley do the job if they are in good condition :huh:

11.99 to be exact :laugh:

you do know that means the same thing, yeah? unless you mean 10.99 and below

below 12sec you need andra licence.. .below 10secs you need to get a roll cage and meet other wsid requirements

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
