I took my bike out and managed a 11.5 @ 132 mph. Having a few problems getting it off the line, and only got three runs in (first time out on the bike too).. so not enough time to try a new technique that I hope will put me into the low 11s. It was certainly different from going in my cars :P

7HEAVN car sounded awesome... hope it's an easy fix.. sounded like some of the teeth stripped from the rear diff?

may come out an watch or race but i'll be out there

Hey, nice to meet you.. hope you had more luck getting off the line after I spoke to you :)

nice to meet you to tommo. didn't end up getting another run due to the rain. cold track, street tyres, and slipping clutch = no good :P

nice to meet you brett ( 7heavn) what happened at the end. hope it's nothing to serious.

besides cacklingpipes what are the other WSID photograph websites?

just type "wsid pictures" in google.

mate only a 13.5@108???

how much power have you got? I thought you had 240+kw

trap speed should be higher....

no traction?

mate I ran a 13.4@106 on 205-210kw. street tyres. still prob got a 13.3-13.2 on streets, should crack a 12 with slicks.

stock suspension really helps, last skyline had coilovers and just broke traction 2nd for way too long.

60ft???

best was 2.2 60ft

I was running on 14psi which is about 220rwkw

Seee man i am so confused

What am i do wrong

i have 270rwkw and i got a 2.3 60ft

and got 13.2 @ 114mph

i had street tyres 17/235/45 rear to be exact

how was traction???

thats really the only thing to explain that time....you got the mph 114 i think should be good for a 12.5...

Both of you guys need to work on your 60 footers. Practice and talk to other skyliners with similar power who know what they are doing. The advice I have received from 2rismo has been invaluable in this regard.

Of course it goes almost without saying but you would chop chucks off your times with drag radials. (I've got some for sale hint hint :thumbsup:)

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
