To hear that GTR coming out of the last turn on to the straight was awesome. Love the smell of race fuel.

Top points to the driver of that SR powered Hachi who absolutely destroyed those rear tyres after two laps. I reckon he is a sponsor or two away from DA series :down:

Looks like i left to early.If id known you guys(Chris and Steve) were coming i would of hung around and said gday. :P

I was watching the ignition dvd that came with HPI with Twoggle on the cover and then Mark and the Hi Octane GTR came on and doing timeattack over in Japan :(

Nice story and awesome watching it :)

Well done on your 59:666 :D

P.s sorry if this has been mention already :D

thanks Jess

It was a great experience, hope to get back there again soon. some crazy cars there!! lol

The car sounds amazing and looks like you had a hard time putting the power down :)

Would love to go over and be a spectator at timeattack, would learn heaps!! :P

Good luck for the next one and hope there will be another story on it..

P.S Was russ there?? a bit camera shy??

russ was there but he was permanently hung over! haha. just kidding. he had a beer related injury which may have kept him off camera cause he's so bloody vain. :P

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
