Well done Todd and the Club Execs for organising the event.

in the end, great turnout and a bloody great afternoon.

yes it started late but that was out of our control.

with 30 cars running, there was never a long lineup between runs - I got 11 runs in and left at 4pm.

looking forward to the photos, cheers

Thanks everyone for coming out, we ended up with about 26 people from memory, everyone had a blast from what I can tell, everyone was EXTREMELY well behaved, so thanks for that :D - there were only a few mishaps with the cars, not as many if it were a hot day, so i'm thankful it became cooler.

Thanks to the guys (and girls) from Bundy who made the trip, sorry I didn't get to talk to you more :( I hope you'll make the journey again for a skidpan or something (which is much closer to you in Gympie) hahaha

NICE JOB TODD!!!!! And from memory, I think you beat a couple RB25's yeh? hahahahahaha :)

I definitely want to do another day soon WHERE THE CAR DOESN'T BREAK :) :lol:

Cheers again guys :worship:

Thanks to you guys for organising this event. I had a ball, and it was my first time down the strip as well. It's a shame my clutch didn't enjoy the day as much as I did and I only ended up doing 4 runs, but I enjoyed every second :worship:

Spewin I didn't get into the 13's tho :) Missed it by 0.049!!

Can't wait for the next one! :)

yeah we had heaps of fun!!! i much prefered our time then when gates opened to public thats when it got crappy lol

best i could get 13.1 @ 114mph then clutch started giving away :worship:

Oh-yes I did, 33&34 varieties Ended up doin 14 runs lol 20 FTW,

Super special thanks to the treasurer-Anna who was a major part in the day going ahead with her tireless work taking payments for the day.

Another big thanks to QR for allowing us to use the track and all the marshals who ran it for us.

Everyone was extremely well behaved which is testament to the great bunch of members & guests we have acquired.

I love this club-I really do-you guys & gals all rock :laugh:

Ha!! Due to brand new tyres and a new EBC, I did better my best time by 0.1sec down to a 13.5 but should have done a lot better.

Tim, to give you an idea of the potential in my car, my trap speed on the good run was 192.6kph!!! If I could get it off the line, it would be low 12's

Best: 13.529 ET @ 171.57 KPH (106.61 MPH)

Tim, to give you an idea of the potential in my car, my trap speed on the good run was 192.6kph!!! If I could get it off the line, it would be low 12's

Thanks fella's, but I hav already penned you both down for a 13.529+2=15.529 which all will see and that clearly shows that my 20 won baahahahaha :rofl:

More seriously Dave, try to get some Slicks on you stock rims for the next Drag Day and do that car justice will you :P , by being able to sit a bit higher in the rev range and to let rip off the line I think will surprise you (maybe 11's) cause its sure got some stick once moving I'll lay testament to that :( .

Tim, that car rocks dude :domokun: , has given me a target 4 the next 1 by matchin your time ;)

BULLSHIT!

Sorry Noel my mistake...

You made me go searching for the time slip, but then i remembered i posted it in the drag pb's section...

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
