lolz.....Good on ya guys...

still gotta get my lil rocket down the strip...

[Hattori Hanzo 69]

do you sell any bolt in turbos for a RB26, looking at garrets -5's what do you have in this range?

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

good work guys. should make a nice improvement with a functional gearbox and grippier tyres. i thought RSR's were quite grippy but with 350rwkw maybe they dont stand a chance, especially with axle tramp going on.

vids next time?

[GTScotT]

Nice work on the strip :-) glad its now proven that the turbos can trap the speed.

now its time for others to revisit their setups and their tuners.

[Lithium]

Indeed, those trap speeds are much more like what one would expect from those power levels... for the sake of interest, what kind of blow of valve is this car running?

[copycutter]

Well done stao and status - must've been interesting having it try to swap ends in 3rd or 4th on the strip!

Can't wait to get this new clutch in and get back to the strip.

What tyres are you going to run next? Some semis?

[34GeeTeeTee]

Yeah, i am actually surprised the RSR's sucked? Mine grip up pretty well once they are hot?

[GTScotT]

He's getting axle tramp as said which wouldn't be helping things.

Stao as reference if you aren't running pineapples already you should get onto it asap.

My S14 has pineapples and does not tramp at all, while friends who don't have the pineapples tramp like mofo's.

[34GeeTeeTee]

Yep, i agree... I had bad tramp and put the collers (dunno how to spell lol) and it made a HUGE difference....

[Lithium]

With decent tyres really with that power you should be solidly into the 11s

[GTSBoy]

Tramp is less about pineapples and subframe location issues than it is about damping. I agree, locking the subframe up with better/newer bushes and/or pineapples is a big help and probably a necessity, but I would always look to the rear damper settings/health as my main concern when trying to fix tramp.

[hypergear]

GtScott: Would great if you can pass on a link to those pineapples. I will have a look into them.

Been recommended to Mickey Thomson 16inchs drag tyres. Will need to source that and a set of factory rear rims.

I took few video footages in bystander area. Will upload shortly.

[34GeeTeeTee]

Yep 11's would be my guess..... And yes locking the subframe made a huge difference on my car but doesnt mean it will on all cars

[GTScotT]

Stao these are the ones I prefer to use:

Have recommended such fixes to other friends which also helped a lot.

[Hanaldo]

Congrats Stao, great result!

[hypergear]

I'm thinking what happens if run a 1.06 turbine end on the G3. it should take away all the zappiness down low causing wheel spin while kicking in mid top range while the car's rolling at much higher speed.

[GTScotT]

Try your type A non FNT housing first.

I think that will be faster on the drags.

[Dan_J]

good to see your testing your turbo's on the strip

since we're on the subject i've got a set of used pineapples that can be bought of me for $50

[jet_r31]

Put slicks and front runners on it..save your axles from getting broken ..lol, good work guys

cheers

Noob question. Quarter Time stands for taken completing the run. Does the car with higher mileage stands for a faster car after the completion of the track? assume if the run way is 1 full mile instead of quarter mile.
