May be OK on this one.... what has happened to Perth's endless summer..... more like endless winter this year....

I think that it's the melting of Antarctica.... it is actually making the Southern Ocean cooler and we are getting more "Albany like" weather....

It's just Mother Nature trying to level up mankinds stuff-ups.....

Does drag racing count as a Green sport?

How many trees do we have to plant to cover our 1/4 mile runs?

Does anyone really care?

:) That's about as green as I get!

Was the aristo running a V8 4WD, or the 2JZGTE? im guess 2J, or he wouldve had YOU off the line...? 3L twin turbo 6... if toyota made an aristo wagon or similar, itd be aiiight.

M35's have a MUCH bigger rolling diameter than C34's and legnums, right? the can run HUGE wheels.

yes, yes you are :)

15.5ish to 15.1ish from memory.

both of those times seem fairly slow to me. Not talking about anyone's driving either - just slower than I would've imagined these cars would do. I believe people have managed somewhere just over the 15s mark in a stock s1 stagea?

15.1 isn't that quick for the SS either. So its a credit to you that your heavier, 2.5L engined wagon came within .4 seconds of a 6L V8 powered wagon. I'm not sure how to compare engine sized (probably impossible) but we can work out that at stock boost, your car will be sucking as much air as a ~3.8L n/a engine, give or take some, but certainly less than the big 6L v8. and yet you would have the same if not more power to the wheels.

I still say congrats :)

2JZ, it did a 14.1 that run, and i did a 14.6 as i turned the boost down instead of up, lol.

but the next run against a skyline i did a 14.2... so not that much quicker

Mitchy, as for the legnum, you meantioned earlier that you got 14.2 in a "dead stock" legnum and here you mentioned raising the boost? Just out of interest, what is stock boost and what did you set it to in order to get the 14.2. Thats a pretty impressive number :) Do legnums have adjustable boost as standard? or do you have some mods - eg, exhaust, boost controller.

Also you said "not that much quicker" - I'd say .4s is quite an achievement just by adding more boost.

whoops....

the only mod is a manual boost controller. :)

stock exhaust, stock intake, even a crappy compliance spec cat and filter!

stock boost is about 8psi, and i had it set at 12psi, but it tapers off to about 10psi higher up (I need a EBC!)

the 'not much quicker' was referring to the aristo... i expected a 3L TT sedan to go more than 0.1s faster than a 2.5L TT wagon :)

the SS wagon was also a VY, so it was only the 5.7L LS1, i'm not sure what they are supposed to do, but i know the LS2 powered utes are supposed to do ~14 flat (my old man wants to try his against the legnum :)), so a LS1 wagon doing 15 sounds about right.

aristo just beat me, but i flogged it off the line. :)

...beat a skyline though :)

yeah the rims on that M35 were big, but they suited it :)

By going the larger rims has that increased the diameter of the wheel from the standard 18 inch wheels? If it has this may have effected the launch off the line?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
