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

    • Temporary. Sorry about the inconvenience while we sort some issues.
    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
