no...went to the track and ran 12.4 and 12.2 and then finally ran a respectable time of 10.6

Im still the only RH9 car Croydon racing has ever produced (well i built the car, and they did the engine and tuning)

Id really like to have a drive :D

it runs a hollinger seqential and ran slicks to achieve the 10.6, so even if it did run a 9 it still would not be classified RH9 as you have to run on radials.

I prefer to run the numbers before i even entertain the thought of talking up the times...but to each their own i suppose.

yeh i didnt think that it had run the time, just goes to show that just because you have the power doesnt mean that you will run fast times

what was the story with the runs??? couldnt get the power down? bad launches? bad driver?

I also thought it had twin 3540's and an Apexi twin entry 150mm cooler.

The car definitely has all the gear to run the times very easily...it's just a matter of getting it down the track. At Compak Attak it was the driver's first attempt at racing the car and it was done (erroneously) using full slicks. A 10.6 with 145+MPH TS means that the car has the potential to run well into the 9's.

yeah...it then made 1100hp with the T88-38GK

it may have been John's first time at the track with THIS car...but he's got more runs under his belt than most (previously ran a R32 GTR into the mid 10's as well)

i see the massive brembos have been ditched, possibly to accomodate a smaller wheel for the track?

that photo is over 2 years old...Dario's ute is in the background and its been back on the road for over 18 months

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
