RX7 CRASH!!!!!!!

i was the very first car there!!! stupid stupid traffic controller..

i'm cruising along.. i see the old mate wave me to slow down... watchin the speedo, slowing down... see old mate wave a car to cross the road... notice anoter car coming in opposite direction.

things sorta go slow motion... glass, plastic and sh!t fly everywhere... its all silent... i hit the brake hard so the other car doesnt come near me. Both drivers jump out of their cars looking ready to fight... both realise their passengers are in pain by the looks of it....

both cars would have been write offs for sure... Damn lucky i was 5 seconds slower or else i woulda copped a car into mine!!!

anyway.. jambo was cool. My mates VL went like a piece of poo. big time lean outs and managed a 12 still. another mate pulled 13.15 from an L20b and got 2nd in ALL MOTOR. His bro pulled consistnat 11.04's all day in the orange datto wagon.

Yeah, I'm a friendly guy... Just avoid my kids or you'll have trouble... :)

We can compare 4 door notes.... :)

shit ay, i didnt even see another car involved, just saw the mashed rx-7

heh, us 4 door boys should stick together

i wear shit at work for my 4 door selection, but i woudlnt have it any other way

i love that damn skyline to pieces (and so do my passengers that dont have to climb through into the back, they get their own door)

ok guys, angus has updated the website with 3 pages of pics from sat. Some great pics of the croyden GTR which actually set a new world record with that 8.555 sec pass on sunday!

check it out!

heres a pic of my mates GSR

Mario has also updated his website with results and a few pics

theres also heaps of pics on www.boostcruising.com Make sure u check out justdaves pics, he got some awesome shots

yeah i've never regretted going 4 door, so convienient when ya doing a few city laps and u spy some mates out on the town. I just pull over, they jump in and away we go :burnout:

yeh i like the mods you've done to your car. twin throttle bodies look nice. pretty quick for an NA RB30e !!!

Some of those people who were crowded around you need to check their attitudes tho. Some of the comments they directed towards him and the car....

There's more to come from the car as I only really just scraped in from qualifying with my first 14 sec. for the car and on my last qualifying run! I had to dial in something that was conservative. It was the first meeting for the car with the new engine and setup so I think we did pretty well :D

BTW: I don't want to start any arguments but your mate made a comment about my car that my mates and I took offence to but left it at that. Didn't want to start anything. I only heard one comment from my mates about your mates car and didn't think it was any worst than he said. If he took offensive to any of my mates comments (mainly the ones I am not aware of), I apologise now for their actions. If anything, it was your mate's comment that started things!

yeh it doesnt really worry me. Just didnt think that its the best way to go racing. And some squid in his EFI RX3 who ran all motor. He had some crap coming out of his mouth. Why cant people just get along and race instead of baggin each other out!

your NA prolly goes harder than my car :D

BTW: i dont want to start crap either... :D

I'm with you man! More racing, less baggin!! I didn't see/talk to the guy with the RX3 but it looked pretty quick (dialled in 12.5??). There were a lot of rotor's in that class (ALL MOTOR). How many piston engines were there? I know I was the only 6 cylinder in the class :D

  • 4 weeks later...

The Stanza is a pretty cool car, a friend of mine from bundy built it, glen hopper is his name, top bloke if you ever see it at the drags again, stop and have a chat, he will talk,

The car all up owes him $8grand but that includes buyin the car, mod plates rego and all, it a mad little car,

But like i said if you see him again stop and have a chat he will be all to willing to show you his car, not that it looks like much but it is a work of art, r33 gearbox, he made his own bellhouseing for it, blue bird diff, microtech, home made adjustable cam wheels.

He also has a 12.2 second 4g93 gsr lancer, it cool as well. Oh to have his toys

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
