he ran a 9.7 but cant remember the trap speed.

I do remember Mr DirtGarage making a heap of excuses as to why Mark/Russ went quicker, with smaller turbos and circuit tyres lol

9.78 @ 143mph.

It's funny to listen to Berry tell the story, particularly how they said it needed a parachute over 140mph even with the big brakes.

I hear the Pulse boys are running a super-duper-wow-spec-epic Rado style front wing on their thing.

That's just wrong. It's at that point one should look at something and go "yep, that might work but it just looks dumb so it's coming off".

wont be as extreme as that more F1ish on the pulse evo still getting the body done currently looks good and wide ;)

What tyres are the guys in Club srpint class running?

I was reading the regs and it suggests you have to have UTG of above 120. Aparently this rules out my Dunlop 03g semis. Therefore what is the stickiest thing i can buy that complies.

Love to hear the feedback.

Cheers,

for clubsprint I would recommend looking at the dunlop Z1 star spec. I currently have AD07s on one of my 32s and AD08s on the other and the dunlops on the evo and they were fantastic and wakefield. for a street tyre they handle track use very well. very progressive at the limit, surprising high level of grip and of course good feel through stiff construction (all the premium tyres have that thouh, RT615, AD08, RE01R etc).

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
