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 :)

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
