We recently had Powercruise visit Darwin. There were plenty of tough cars out and about. Here's a little vid of the shopping car:

Video doesnt really do it justice, my passenger was crapping himself.

Brad, this was in 2wd, 2nd gear. I managed to stuff my new twin plate clutch, would have given 3rd a go. It made 489rwhp on 21psi. I have a tank of avgas in it now so I will put it back on the rollers and crank some more boost into it.

Love the minis Heath, my mate is putting a couple together atm.

Fully aware of how to drift bud, order yourself a Powercruise DVD and have a look. During the cruise sessions you are NOT allowed to drift, powerskids only ie, no sitting on the brake making a heap of smoke. All I was doing was plating it in 2nd and letting the motor do the rest of the work.

^^speaking from the number one rule breaker of SAU :pwned:

MADE!!!!!!! lol dont worry brad we still like you.

yeah least you get to have some fun with your shows. motorvation is a dismal event. love the fact the stagea can get the tyres spinning when rolling without to much effort. awesome.

Thanks for the nice comments guys and girls. Got a nos kit ready to go on, should get me around 650rwhp, which is stiiiilllll not enough to catch up to Brad! Damn your Jun powered trolley :pwned:

Jun powered "VOLVO" LOLOLO!!

well thats no fun :(

'sif the yanks know anything about powerskids and burnouts! Don't you guys still chock the front wheels in a burnout comp? I have always thought that was the main reason drifting took off so fast in seppo land.

if you need nitrous to get 650HP, you need to build your motor a little better

A real good friend just dynoed his r32 at 600HP. with no nitrous and N1 turbos

Dont know who you are buddy but i am pretty sure you dont know much about my car. It is built to take 1000hp. Not sure where your mate got his car dynoed but 600hp at the rears on n1's is pretty high. Do I need to mention my run was done on 21psi?

yeah, his N1s are maxed out, time to upgrade

ill be happy with my measley 400 on an rb25

but why are you using nitrious instead of a larger turbo?

I dont know about aussie

but NOS Is like 200 bucks a small bottle to build.

at that price its more economical to pay for a larger turbo to me.

But sitll, your number is impressive

what turbo was that on?

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
