Oscar, how the hell did you manage the 11.7 in RWD ?

Easy exactly same procedure as AWD. Long smoky burnout, launch on limiter and hang on.

I was still getting wheelspin on the 3-4th change at over 100mph :) I'm sure if I practised more I would get low 11's

I heard something about another accident that only just missed a small pole

Another street drifters close encounter with a gutter. Heard it was suspension damage only.

Any more details yet Cameron?

I'm all set for the drags again tomorrow. :D

Anyone needing S13 parts should come & see me or pm me if you don't know me. I am still stripping Ryan's old '92 Silvia shell and there is not much left.

Best bits available would be the front seats, all glass, rear subframe complete, minor interior parts and shell rear of the A pillars.

What ever is left in a few weeks time will be going to the wreckers or crusher. All cheap especially if you want to take the bits off yourself.

Dunno if you guys know yet but its $100 to enter the 1320 event. i wonder why the price hike?

What do you mean ? Dudes are coming from the US and you think it's gonna be like an off street meet ? Bracket racing in super street is about as expensive as that normally if you don't have a s/st ANDRA license, and even more expensive in super sedan ($125 + license). And it's $80 if you nominate now, $100 on day. It will be extra to have a one day license too.

I'm wondering how strict the scruteneering will be. If they are relaxed about it that will really piss me off as the only reason I'm not racing is because of ANDRA rules. Both cars are ready to rock mechanically but R32 still needs battery isolator, fit new 5 point seat/rail, 5 point harness, side intrusion bar on cage, tailshaft loop, new race gear, $9 a litre unleaded, upgrade to group 3 unlimited ANDRA license, parachute yada yada yada. It just goes on and on. I just need to get the R32 back out there to see where I'm at. You guys have no idea the money that's been poured into my GTRs. (could've had an R35 already put it that way) :)

Good news for this event is tail shaft loop is only required in the 10 sec zone (ANDRA says 11) but harnesses will be enforced in the 11 sec zone OR 110 mph. I've tried telling everyone - don't say you were not warned.

I spoke to Andrew Cole today over the phone and scrutineering won't be any different to any other meet. So whatever you normally do to prepare your ca for racing is what will be required on the day. Hope to see you out there Ben.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
