so your only in 3rd accross the line? yeah shit about the top hose!! it is a nice trophy but hehe

Yeah..on the final run held it all the way to 9500rpm in 3rd and lost both belts across the line.(3rd gear @ 9500rpm = 137 MPH)

youtube of 1st run to come (uploading now)

I got to the track right on 6pm and my mate says "I dont see pauls car" just as I hear the very distrinctive RB26 hauling ass up the track and im like "thats coz he's on track, run!!"

Thats so funny Ben....almost as funny as the other night Stace heard me talking in my sleep saying "the other dyno...nah its the same dyno, its the same dyno"

Hi Paul & Stacey, some awesome figures happening there, i cant wait to hear the final 1/4 mile times, bit of bad luck the other nite at WSID but shit 137mph 9500rpm in 3rd! Damn i love your car, i had my car in for some work at Croydon a couple of months ago & while i was waiting for marcus & the boys to open the gates, they moved all the cars out & then they started up your car, i almost wet myself & it was only idling, your car sounds wicked!! Absolutely love it!! I was sitting there thinkin Fark i wonder if someone from SAU owns that ANIMAL, well now i know its you well done! :);):(

Cheers Billy

Thanks Billy, Cars like this don't just happen (unless you have unlimited cash), it has been constant trial and error development over 6 years. The car is almost at the stage where we want it...once the 9's are out of the way its time for monster brakes and a return to the circuit. Stacey is still keen to get out of the 11's and into the 10's after she has the baby (it was due yesterday). Very happy with how the car performed with the limited testing we had on wednesday night.

Good luck with that. Car sounds like it's a beast and a half. Been following this thread for awhile now. Am i the only one who thinks the plates read "To Ogle"?? :mellow:

At Autosalon one year the announcer called the car "to ogle" when Stacey was accepting a trophy. He is the only other person to suggest "to olge"

Twoogle inhaled its first breath from the new T51R SPL tonight and powered by the new Vi-PEC ecu...yes it runs...tuning tomorrow and on the road next week.

big thanks to Guilt-Toy and Mark Jacobsen from Godzilla motorsport.

dug up an old thread as it was a bit of a waste starting another.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
