There's a 12.2 waiting to be had on street tyres if you get the launch right! Well done.

It was so not easy hey, who ever drag racing is easy is wrong well with power it is really hard especially with street tyres.

anyways it was my frist time down there! practice makes perfect i would say!

12.2 would be very very nice hehe

first time i ever been down to the drags and i entered my 33 GTST in...

she's running an average 283hp @ 13psi...

guess what i got on my first run????

15.1!!!!!! LOL, with a reaction time of 1.03 seconds, lol. I had no clue what i was doing and had no clue the yellow lights dumped down so quickly. I panicked and just slammed the clutch and since i didnt dry my tires (there only street ones so i thought it wouldnt be that much difference) i lost all of first in about half a second so i slammed it in second and i already lost a good second out of my time... OUCH

second run i did still an average of 14.3 and since i saw a few races before i ran the second time, i got to tell when to start releasing the clutch so i got a reaction time of 0.04 seconds.

i only ran twice coz i got there in peak hour where is took an hour to get scrutenised then the long wait for the turbo's to go through.

but yer, definantly will go next week and have another crack at it

good work on the 14.3, my door went faster on your car than mine, hahah

300rwhp and all i managed was a 15.1 (albeit the turbo had a VERY blown seal at that stage...)

edit: also ryan, your car wont be stock boost if you have fmic, exhaust, pod, etc.. that all raises the boost regardless of if you have a controller or not.

you're probably running about 10psi.

lol, hi gary.

FMIC might be the case, but the exhaust usually pushes the boost up.

my car used to run 10psi with 450x250x60 fmic, pod, and exhaust, with no controller/bleed valve/etc. at all :wave:

mid/low 13's is pretty achievable in a R33 with the usual mods, you just need to work on your launches. my first (and subsequently last launch of the night, and the car) resulted in wheel spin all the way through first and second gear.

:nyaanyaa:

the stock fmic is increadibly restrictive

you will run a bit more boost when its removed for a proper one

Im still yet to take my r32 down but judging by u guys i should easily do a low 14. ive just got a 3in De-cat exhaust with 600x300x75fmic and im running 13psi. do u reckon very high 13's are possible with the right launch?

took my car first time ever i went there, 1st run 14.8 2nd run 14.099 third run 15.2 <--- couldnt get into third 3rd, my main problem was traction in 1st and second, and runnin wierd boost from .3 bar to infinite so car was runnin r+r depending on gear running actuator ONLY lol, once i get car to run 12psi again i might have half a chance to get into the 13s

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.

      yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
