I did a 10.02 @ 143 last time out but that was with only 450wkws that has now risen to 650wkws.A mid 9 is expected but we all know about expectations,Lol.I just wanna get out there with some Skylines rather than the usual v8s or rotors.

Mmm ok yeah that's not going to work haha!

Shame though, there's a few 500+awkw GTR's that want to come but they'll run too fast.

Really sorry we cant help you out - maybe come watch and just hang out with some non V8/Rotor guys at WSID for a change lol

Dam I went to one of these days before I brought my GTR and watched TWOOGLE & 2RISMO both ducking into the 10's yet weren't booted? I've been looking forward to running at such an event ever since yet sadly not paying $200 for 1 run :verymad:

There are ways around this... you could break the beam (and start the timers) then take off and see what MPH you can get. This can indicate your potential ET on a perfect run. Or you could take off easy and then plant it - again, to see what MPH is acheived on the run, and hence what potential ET the car is capable of.

Alternatively, you could take off hard and then either back off or brake before the finish line. Couple the first half track passes with the MPH acheived on the other runs and you can work out the opotimal run ET and TS. Then, go hard at the end of the day and get your 10second timeslip and get booted :D

That must have been quite a while ago and WSID's private days were much different back then. Now they have two types, ones like this SAU:NSW one (ie 11.00+ cars), and the private track hire days for ANDRA-teched cars (a handful of cars only).

Hehehehe, charlie, charlie charlie........

What car are you planning on running?

On a serious note, dont do the boot it too 1000" then brake hard. That is extremely dangerous, as we have found in past you have a good chance of turning the car around and punting it. I would prefer if you rolled off it at 1000" and cruised through the beams.

..

An ANDRA or WSID official will boot you for that sort of thing. If you break the beam and then hammer it or if you sandbag in the top end. Even if you go hard to half track and button off. I've been booted for that in the past but it DOES depend on who is the chief official on the day.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
