Id like to know what im getting myself into if i agree to help.

Some people have no skills... you know who you are.

eh? I have crazee mad l33t skillz! Just no tools.

lol :lol:

At least I'm not a Captain Bolt Stripper, eh Boozstor :uh-huh:

I'll see if theres any stock of KCA349 in Perth, expect a call from me If there is :cool:

Daneesh, are u going down on sunday??? are u running, i'm trying to get my hands on a 2nd hand safc, from what i heard from Joey, u had alot of sucees with urs, so ii'm keen to get 1 in and tuned, think i will get a power increase????

thinking of running the quarter tho...... i av no idea how to lauch ma car so I DUNO

I'll be there to spectate, for sure. If I can get new rubber and the kca349 kit before Sunday, then I'll run as well.

2 thumbs up for the s-afc. Sorting out af ratios and confusing the ecu into not knocking back timing did wonders for me. 253rwhp at Barrys dyno.

Come down on Sunday, it should be great. Launching at the track is much like launching on the street - hold revs, side step clutch at 2nd orange light and hold on for the ride.

is this anyones first time at the drags apart from me? i need someone els to make a fool of themselves bogging down off the line with me!!

I wouldn't worry about that Adam. The first time I went I was a little bit nervous but no one really cares if you make a mistake. No one has made a perfect launch everytime.

My first run I thought I had gone over the staging line so i chucked it in reverse and as soon as i did that the green light went..... wasnt my best run :cool:

Ben

Yep this is gonna be my first run :uh-huh:

So get ready for some serious insanity launching:burnout:

Im sure ill bogg it down good. Joe u can use a spare helmet i might be able to find but if not im sure someone will let you borrow theirs for a run or 2. :cool:

Guest KILLER-T

Good news all going well tomorrow i will be racing on sunday:burnout: :burnout: and if you want a lift joe give me a call and i will pick you up on the way.This is going to be lots of fun i have been hanging out to run my car since i had the new turbo fitted :uh-huh:

Called up Westshock this morning and reserved the last set of kca349 they had. Picked it up this afternoon and looks like word is getting around, cause someone else wanted a set after I'd reserved.

Organized for a pair of yoko A539 to be fitted on Friday. They really should be going on the front, but I may put them on the back for couple of days so I can loose the top skin at the drags.

So, looks like I definantly will be going. :burnout:

KILLER- T, good to hear your able to run. Lets hope the traction gods are smiling on you :)

Guys/Gals

You want to launch about 500RPM higher than FULL BOOST RPM. This is what ive been told and seems affective.

When wheels start to spin back revs off slightly then all the way to redline, Snap 2nd gear and hold on thru gears hehehe

Higher boost/power newbies to motorplex 2nd gear snap seems to launch you into whatever direction you are pointing ie if back wheels kick out u may need to straighten up or u will go offcourse :-)

I find the track is a fair bit grippier than black asphalt

IMPORTANT. Most slightly modded skylines will do a +160kmhr terminal speed which is just over 3rd gear redline so make sure u take 3rd to the end

:burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

Does anyone agree with this

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
