Turbo swaps are hard try reinstalling the powerfc first... :D Couldn't help myself...

Seriously maybe Dirt's still holding 3rd gear so he doesn't exceed 140mph...

Good luck over the weekend Paul & Mark..

it launched off the line with too much power/throttle turning the tyres, then at the top of 2nd blew the intercooler hose off the turbo outlet....still ran 10.23... :)

ill pull 4th if the 1st half of the run is in order and get logged for no chute...till i get it together there is no point running it out the back door.

100k on a car

my new sig!

its log booked already ya flogger

id rather get logged (booked for non compliance) for a 9.46 @ 148 than run a 9.9* @ 141 and have to park the car at a 4 day meet.

thrashing the sh1t out of expensive engines when you know at 1/4 track the thing is not on a screamer is foolish to say the least.

please crawl back under the pile of sh1t you just appeared from fatz. (my new sig...lol)

lol

im still in third

gold!

sounds like an ad for a Ford ute. :)

yes i realise fabricating brackets and mounting a parachute is inevitable...my car was late arriving in QLD and we were pressed for time at Godzilla this week preparing Marks car to return to the track.

all my 9 second passes have been done as a 3 speeder. 3rd gear @ 9100rpm = 139MPH! over 140MPH requires extra safety gear and the chute.

more work required on the car before Jamboree to optimise the set-up.

Big thanks to Mark, Harry, Murdy and Scott for their efforts.

car is fine...Marks is getting close too, bit too much clutch on the 7.92 and black-tracked to 1/2 track.

if Mark's car wasn't finished we were planning on swapping the chute over to my car. It will be all sorted for Jambo in August.

good meet, weather held out nicely, and seen Mark do all his runs, also had a chat to Paul, very helpful and showed me a few things as well, i didnt get to see Pauls runs because the rest of the people i was with didnt wanna sit around watching street cars, they struggled to watch the super compact at the start but soon changed there tunes and said they were really good (these guys are the crew for a 5.7 sec funny car so they not into the non v8 stuff). A few of the boys on the crew are keen on 2jz's now lol :P

So how did the rest of the runs go Paul? Did you see how Theo went also?

That white datto ute with 4g63 was crazy, great to watch wheelstanding on gearchanges lol, absolute weapon!!!

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
