Hi Guys,

Here is another video I found that somone has took on the 9.7sec run from the hill at palymra,

The sound is just awesome Ben, LOOOOVE it! :D

That gear change to 4th was absolute lightning fast as well.

Yes 3rd to 4th was ridiculously fast with this ignition cut, hopefully when we take the car back out in 2 weeks time, we will be trying to flat shift every gear with no clutch. Plus alot more boost and timing.

Only got to see one of your runs at the king of the hill on Saturday. But didn't catch the times you ran. 9.5 something i thought i heard. Looked really strong. Was keen to catch up with you guys for a yarn but had to bail early.

Up until you guys came up I had the gtr track record up here in Townsville but you sure gave my 10.7 a fair touch up. Haha. Mine is set up for Tarmac rally though..

Top effort. Might catch up with you at prossie drift when you get that 13 finished.

Coop.

Yeah sorry about taking your record Coop my bad lol, there was suppose to be a meet on at Palmyra that weekend but it was cancelled, and we wanted to more testing before Jambo so we decided to come up to Townsville for a run. We ended up getting a 9.5sec pass @ 144mph with a 1.4sec 60ft. The track conditions were not the best put we were still impressed with the times considering we changed nothing to the car besides the rev limiter which was but out further and changed driving style. Looking forward to Willowbank to see what times we do on a really sticky track.

We did also have our first mechanical failure, but was to be expected poor old clutches don't last forever, so it has been pulled out and sent to Doug at NPC to do his magic. Which will be great to have a fresh clutch before Jambo. I will post up some vids from townsville when i get a chance.

Yeah would be great to catch up with you Coop may see you out drifting my 180sx is still gonna be awhile yet but when it is, gonna be freaking awesome fun.

Here's some pics of clutch that's had a hard life:

8.7 - 8.8 sec is the goal which is what we are aiming for a Jambo this year. A retune to 36psi + maybe a bit more (currently running 27psi), put rev limiter to 10500rpm (currently 9000-9500rpm) combined on Willowbanks Super Sticky Surface it will be very possible. Just from changing from Palmyra to Willowbank should give us 0.5sec gain straight up.

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
