I want to build up a DR30, but not as a burnout car just as a nice car :P

Long live the box/wedge !

Hells yeah!!!

Nah im thinking the same.. not just a burnout car... but a nice one :teehee:

Just cut the crap and put a merlin v16 out of a spitfire in it! It's different and it'll fry your tires quicker than you can say "get a dog up ya!"

My friend Jeremy is DJing at 151 so I will be there for sure. If you want to buy me a drink or three I'll be wearing a v-neck and jeans.

No that's what i'm wearing, i had dibs first.

irony (ˈaɪrənɪ)

—n , pl -nies

1. the humorous or mildly sarcastic use of words to imply the opposite of what they normally mean

2. an instance of this, used to draw attention to some incongruity or irrationality

Anyway, I figured if you have 40k to spend on a 31 your night out budget must be close to $5000, so drinks at 151, :)

Wasn't the Merlin a 12 cyl? Not trying to be a smart arse or anything. Anyway, +1 for the spitfire engine conversion, especially a Merlin 131, 2000HP at 25psi :)

We have a Merlin here at the Mech eng building at uni all cut up so you can see it in operation, thing is awesome.

amusing thread lol

talk of:

lesbians

eating books

ta ta's (Which we still need a pic of)

spending ridiculas amounts on a terrible engine

wooly mamoths

how hektic skidz require no skill

now there are a few more things i feel should be re-itterated

for administration purposes we require a ta ta shot...

the average 'nats' spectator has an iq figure of 40 and has the interlectual ability of a gumboot...

just put an ls1 in ur car and never never never mention clevos again.

birds and clutch make me laugh and sometimes a bit of wee comes out.

cup size??

any f**kwhit can destroy their own/their mates/their mums car doing skids. hill climbs and track days require brain cells.

No wonder her front teeth are broken. If you looked like that I imagine most people would want to punch you square in the teeth.

yes if thats sherry in her avatar then she not bad at all lol.

I wouldbe a liar if I said I hadnt poured tens of thousands into my track car but f**k its a 33. Its a better platform. It still uses a nissan engine even if it is 3 litre. And it is a track car. Its a race car. U dont need 500 hp to do a skid. U need to not care about ur car so a 31 is an obvious choice but not one with 40 g spent on it.

Furthur more if I had my time again I would have a f**king house by now. Not a money pit skyline thats never gunna be that amazing considering we have cars like the mark berry r34 and even his old 32. Cars like that will be remembered. Ill just be broke and have an aging car with no resale value.

I think if burnouts are ur thing it would be remedial to spend 40 g and a car to do them. A dirtty 5 litre vs commy ute will cost u f**k all and sit on rubber destroying cooks all day lol. And cost f**k all to fix when it breaks.

I swear I did say something as in... not just for skids.. you guys need to read better...

Plus I also said I used to do hillclimbs aswell =/

Yes it is me in my avatar.

    • Drove to Cape Schanck to try to get a nice clear southern view over the ocean to see the lights a couple of days ago... instead got crappy cloud cover. Photo of a diorama of Hong Kong street scene. Taken on an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
