If its the one I'm thinking of, its a candy apple red colour. Has a GTR front grille and Veilside style front bar. The guy lives just off Grand Junction Road so probably the same car. He has had it for sale for ages.

there is a yellow r33 goin around my area athelstone. Also a blue r32 with licence plate CHUNKY also in athelstone. Ill list more when i come to think of them.

CHUNKY plays on the same footy team I did. Matt is his name.

I seen the yellow series I around there too, but havent seen you too much Dean?

Most drag car's auto?.. i hope you dont mean Imports, if so can i have what you are smoking?

If you are however talking local old school tubbed v8's and the like then yes alot are but its not your run of the mill auto (Insert: talk to Munro here).

No, when I referred to most drag cars I meant as a whole. "Usually" they choose auto as the reliability and accuracy is better.

Less clutch frying and human error (slow gear changes etc).

This morning on the way to work I saw a nice white GTR R33. Black carbon fibre bonnet.

Looked very nice indeed.

Actually i kinda agree, F1s use auto upshifting and some even auto downshifting.

less room for human error.

nooot exactly dragging but still racing.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
