my best 60' was 1.55s & 129.75mph

i was also running drag radials which made my 60' :(

tyres were compliments of paul & his mates dog (dave) was eyeing out my nads when i returned them lol

i still blame paul for not cracking a high 10 - he told me to hold in 3rd gear across the line...i was on the limiter for almost 1 sec on my good run (paul u baaaad)

steve - what back2back tests u doing with yavus, stock v's match ported manifolds?

did u end up going bigger with your exhaust system as well?

Nah no that sort of thing, Pauls referring to his car vs mine as we have a lot of the same parts

Yep the exhaust is going to be a massive step up from the crappy peashooter on there now. I'll get pics up asap for you guys. The best bit? It's specific to rb30 gtr's so no spacers needed :(

and so are uncovered air filters, wheels that are larger than 17inch diameter on an r32 etc etc etc

Check the wheel rules mate, unless they've changed lately you can go bigger than 17's on R32 (vspec2 had 17x9's stock). From memory the rule is 2" up and 1" wider than stock fitment

The uncovered filter rule is pointless with EFI cars. Keep up the good work RTA.

Im in for a joint booting from WSID. We can go one after the other in one lane just to make a joke about it. Do you think they'd kick us for slamming the brakes before the finish line?

You could do things a few ways to avoid being booted:

Firstly, you could launch full-steam and back off after half track so that you don't go under 11's. This will give you a decent 60' time and also half-track time and MPH.

Secondly, you could break the beam on the green by creeping forward to trip the start timer...then launch the car and go as hard as you like. This will add to the ET but will give you the correct MPH.

You could then get an estimate of the car's potential by adding the best of both types of runs to see what the car is capable of.

Thirdly, go out for the final run and do a full pass and get booted :D

Then you could go back a couple of months later with different plates and do it all again >_<:D:D

Ideally, you could do this at a private day such as this one:

and get PLENTY of practice runs in before doing a full pass at the end of the day (or when you get bored) and get the boot >_<

Lol, endurance racing much? That's a shitload of fuel

Or just enough to get you to the shops and back on E85... >_<

Also the wheel rules are so farking weird.

Secondly, the surge tank in boot isn't illegal if it is covered and vented properly. (It really should be setup on a charcoal canister like the tank).

This is the same for the battery, if you don't have a sealed battery it is meant to be enclosed and vented outside of the car (For R33s etc)

Yeah smart move. The 1000's just wont do the job

Why are your drags closing? Is there a racetrack where the straight can be used instead? Eastern Creek used to do that up here. Anyway, you get Targa roads, thats more than enough :)

Tarmak has been having trouble for ages. Now they cant form a commitee and doesnt seem like they have the money to keep it running. The track needs lots of attention and last time I raced, after finishing the 1/4 the run off turned to shit and there was pot holes and weeds growing everywhere.

There are 2 tracks in Tassie, Symmons Plains up north and Baskerville down south. But dont think the straight would be long enough.

Hahaha yeah...with e85 on the cards she will chew a bit...somthing along the lines of 90-100L an hour at full noise

i think the bugatti veyron goes thru a full tank of fuel in something like 9min @ full revs on the autobarn :)

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
