Dave, Haha, 205's are going to be great, make sure you pump them up to 50psi :P

We should make a new 'pizza cutter' racing category. A points based system where you need to do a 4 wheel burnout the entire length of the track.

I've missed tonight due to my fridge blowing up on me this afternoon. :thumbsup:

well, had a very bad night :( . No traction (doing .240 60ft'er all night) and didn't even manage to get into the 13 sec bracket ;) . could'nt get any faster than 162km at end of track. only good thing was got 13 runs in. met sidewayssam, he done very well considering conditions. will let him tell you his times (that skyline goes well for 260rwhp).

At least you had a good time, I think thats the important thing more than the times. :)

@162km/h terminal I would say you were down on power for the night Vs your old 13.7 run in your signature. How did the car feel? Have you changed anything since last time?

Eric, I've been since my 13.7 with you and I didnt do well either - car feels shithouse now.

Upped the boost (Blitz Spec R) and SAFC Neo. dyno'd at 293rwhp you'd think I could manage a low 13...

Best I could do was a 13.9 and a 2.3 60ft >_<

You aren't making anywhere near 293rwhp at the track bt the looks. what was the terminal speed?

that was the only night i had traction straight of the line. was very humid last night so this may be the reason the power was down a bit. if i was getting better 60fters (2.10 or better)i recon i would have been down around the mid 13ns. even the cars running semis were getting bad 60fters as well(up to .220). alot of guys were complaining about the track prep saying it was very slippery. i think it comes down to shite tyres = shite times. i had a quick check of my slips and i had a best terminal of 164kmph

Around 100-103mph I think, don't have the sheets with me.

The 13.7 was with a 3" catback, fmic and uncovered pod. Found out later the car was running lean from dying fuel pump..

So since then I've done Tomei fuel pump, splitfire coilpacks, 3" dump/front/cat, safc neo, ebc, plus a bit more weight from a stereo although i had the sub out. And 265/35/18s all round at the moment, need to change those front tyres.

103mph is a mid 13 and doesn't equal 293rwhp. It's a fair whack less hp than that at the track. Dyno's are really only a tuning aid anyway so no big deal. The good news is there is enough in the car for a mid 13 without too much dramas. You have 265's , just let some air out and with a little warm up you should get off the line quicker. :/

    • 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.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
    • hi mate, HKS cooler piping still available by any chance?
