Ok guys I've got the flu so I'll do forms etc tomorrow

Sorry for the delay

That date is 100% the date though

Any questions just ask away, John at WSID has been a legend with answering all my questions and is really helpful so dont be afraid to ask anything if you arent sure. There will be a FAQ sort of thing in the thread though

Steve, just in case you missed it (I know you have the flu :D), 1320ft is an ANDRA official and has made himself available (ie volunteered) to be there on the day. I am sure that he will be happy to answer any questions. Looking forward to this day. If I don't have a car ready, I will gladly put up my hand to help on the day. :bunny:

How old is this ANDRA rule?? So many street cars can and have run under 12 seconds for years now.

Even a stock R35 GTR can go under 12's!!! They need to rethink where they draw the line :closedeyes:

Also I'd be keen to do a drag day!!

Hi Guys & Girls,

I will be there on the Day to sell S/ST licences should you need to get one. But be warned, you run quicker than 12.00 you WILL buy one or park it. And run quicker than 10.99 and you will be parked, no 2nd chances.

Licences are $150 and you can pay cash (please have correct money) or via Credit Card.

Aaron

ANDRA NSW 26

I don't like you....

BRING THE NOISE!!

Better check if noise is okay with 1320ft, you may need to pay him money if you want to bring a loud car. >92db you will buy a permit or you will park it. >100db you will park it, no second chances.

There is no need to be a sarcastic.

I'm giving my time to come and help you guys out. Normally ANDRA stewards arn't present at these events so if you run quicker than 11.99 and dont have an ANDRA licence, you get parked.

Think yourselves lucky this isnt an NHRA sanctioned track. Run quicker than 11.50 and you need a welded 4 point cage and licence.

Ask questions if you want but dont be a dick, this guy is giving his time to assist us on the day, they are not his rules they are the strips rules, if you dont like them dont come, simple.

Please pay no attention to him/take him seriously. No one else is :)

Thanks for your help with getting the day going

    • Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.
    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
