Yes....it's on the disclaimer but's that's technically incorrect as my convertible still has a roll hoop and is street legal.

I was bitterly disappointed with my first few runs so I did not care and just rolled up to the strip with my hood down :D

I thought they might send me off again but they did not

heheheh that was funny!!!

Hahah yeah was funny hey 9krpm! Just crooozin down the strip :D It would be a real hassle if they say next time u have to get a roll bar...

Btw all those videos that Nightcrawler have up show me getting really blitzed off the line. Argh embarrasing =( Ptty none of my good runs were against him!

Matt's 540s are still wicked - I have actually bought them off him now :D .... I wanna hold on to them for special nights out :(

I actually did 7 runs on my normal street tyres and only 4 on the RE540s. Cos the track was so damn slippery it was really hard to do a good looking smoking burnout, and it didn't do much to the tyres (which is kind of an upside I suppose). At least I got a few good comments from the commentators about my burnouts. I was spewing that every time I ran a clapped-out celica or the supercharged Monaro, they would rave about the other cars and say crap all about me. I got close to the time of 12.375 required to get into the Australian top 10 fastest rwd cars under 2.4litres and they never once complimented me on my times :( *sniffle*

Wicked, wicked!

Glad those 540s are now yours, will make chasing those last couple of tenths that little bit easier! Was surprised at how little damage all your tyre smoking action did to both sets of tyres really.

9krpm, your "topless" run was a great laugh, they commented on it over the PA, but with your stereo pumpin you probably couldn't hear it!

Also, there's nothing wrong with the guys out there doing 17s - they pay the money, and help to make such events plausible, which is good for all.

How come I didn't see you there Miss*33? Or did I speak with you? All that adrenaline and too many faces ....

I was standing with BOOSTD about two feet from your car but there were so many people milling around changing tyres etc, I didn't know which one was you! LOL :(

Sowwy 9krpm... :D Nothing wrong with running 17s! My car probably wouldn't do much better! LOL The falcon just looked funny running against all of the imports - not what I expected to see! :(

even if i was to bring my EL Futura id still pull 16 sec passes (the g-tec says 15.9 but i hered there a bit out). i dont blame him for having a few cones, anything to get out of the commonwhore world hes currently in now.

as it is i dont even know my power output in my skyline. the mods i have one to it aint to bad:-

3.5 cat back. probably front pipe soon aswell. :D

Hybrid Monster Front mount

boost controller set to 9psi

tripple plat button clutch

im one to ask a lot of questions as im still new to owning a skyline. so if i was to turn up next time dont be affraid to tell me to **** off if you get anoyed. lol

Glossory

Commonwhore - A whore is someone who gets thrashed. commodores are the most common car work the rest out for your self. lol

hey chops, what did they say?

They just said that this time you were running with the top down, and that surely that would be a disadvantage aerodynamically or something like that.

It certainly wasn't them saying "hey, he can't do that!"

Anyway, to be honest, I was quite disappointed with the commentators' lack of knowledge about a VARIETY of cars - I shit you not I heard one guy ask the other if it was called an S2000 cos it was brought out in the year 2000!!!

I also heard them commenting on the "304 Walkinshaw" when the only V8s allowed were LS1's and although it had a Walkinshaw kit, you could CLEARLY hear the turbo.

Anywho, enough bitching, it was a blast.

lol lol

TIMMMAYYY: gota love the replys you get on these forums. lol

i dont have anything against the commodore its self. it just theres to many of them.......what i need is a 4WD with a big bumper to clean them up. :D the only reason i bought a ford as to be differant. both cars are pretty good.

TIMMMAYYY: you wouldn't happen to be a commodore owner would ya . :(

do it girl! you would get at least 15s depending on whether your car is standard. I say get out there and do it! I took my pulsar in the 4 6 and rotor nationals and got a 15.0 sec run! not bad for a n/a and people may laugh but at least i got out there and did it! I say do it!:D

Of course I bag it out - who doesn't want 500rwkw!!??!! :D

I know its a good car, but after driving yours last night BOOSTD, I'm pretty embarassed at the pathetic amount of power mine has!! LOL

Mel, we should represent the girls of SAU next time!! LOL If I ever get the guts to go out there!!! :(

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
