cheers DC. yeah that was from last night, Josh had his 33 out as well which was doing mid 12 also, his is much better to look at than mine though.

Was hanging out to do this, got some Nitto's off MattR not long ago but just have too much and have the Time-Attack coming up on the 11th June (pending weather) - and a little weary with the gearbox/drive-train prior hence had to make late decision to miss it :( plus it got shifted from original date which was the killer... but great time and that is a good reaction time as many have noted! Can hardly wait till the next one!

Only photo Ive got until Lukey puts some up from the drags, tell your Mrs thanks for the pic nelson.lol

Managed a best of 12.7 @ 120.1mph, 2.5 60ft. has the power, just need the traction, wasnt too keen to drop the tyre pressure too much with cheap 235s on a 9.5"rim. I know this isn an ideal drag set up, but i was keen to know what it would run how i drive it everyday on the street with no changes. I think ill attend the july 1/4 with some drag radials and stock suspension to boot.

I just looked through my timeslips and my best 60' in the S15 was 1.902 - and sadly that wasn't on my fastest run. I never ran on drag radials - I now wish I had tried some back in the day, as I always spun some through 1-2 and 2-3 gear changes. Helps that the S15 was only 1,250kg too :)

^^ Someone changes their rims....Look like Enkei light-weight :P Good to see 3 skylines in the same pic

Thanks again DC

Would be good if more imports go out, i was getting tired of the big blocks passing me on 2 wheels :( Going to get some prices on drag radials soon and pretty sure ill be out for the july street meet.

The enkeis are sweet, aggressive stance on it looks awesome.

Luke has his pics up, there are a few of yours.

Haha harsh, I didnt know that threads in the SA section meant that others were unwelcome??

I obviously posted my other car in here a while back, and this was still in my "my content" list, with a new post, therefore I posted my recent aquirement

Go ahead and delete it if it is that much of an issue :s

Nah it's not an issue mate - I was just wondering how anyone from another state even found their way into the SA forums, that is all. And I did say your car was pimp :)

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
