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?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
