Thanks for posting the pics, I ended up running a 12.1/115 which was a pb for the car along with a few 12.2's and 12.3's with passenger. Car also did a 1.67 60-foot time, which was pretty good for the street tyres.

Any chance of getting this pic in a larger size?

Hi Guys,

Even though I had a few Mechanical and wheelspin issues, it was my first day out with my car since late last year, and it was GR8! Real good fun! Almost into the 12s........ 13.8, 13.4 @113mph and then 13.1 @ 110mph on the last run with not the best launch........so I'm pretty happy, especially only on 10psi.

Fantastic day!

Weather was cold, great for the turbos, however the track didn't warm up. But you can't have it all!!

13.70 was the best I could manage, but then again the car isn't set up for drags.

Nice to see all the SAU & WRX people getting along well as usual and i'm sure everyone had a great time!

Its not often that you can enter a drag day where you actually get sick of making runs!

Sorry i missed this guys i was in Sydney for work....

Looks like there was a good turnout and some crazy runs from the story's i have heard....

Roudy mate you are a MAD MAN!!!!!!!

I will be looking forward to the next drag day so i can get my car out there and actually see how quick i can run.....

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
