This is the video where he achieved 390rwkw @ 1.6bar

..........................

Anyway i went to the jam, and the subzero car could only manage a 10.05, not to say thats shabby either........

Just saying that because there was an Evo 3 there that ran a 10.40 and he did all the work himself (ecept the turbo). He built the exhaust, intercooler, air box....blah blah blah....

To explain more he paid for all of the mods and has only spent 4 grand on the car to get it down to 10.40.... Pretty good if you ask me.... For an owner driver.... After all Sub-zero is a company and basiclly works the car to its extreme and it probably worth over 50g's................

TRY09's did run a 10.06 @ 139mph. It will be at the Jamboree, going for a 9sec pass.  

Croydon ran 9.70's at Heathcote at the Turbotitles a couple of months ago. very impressive car to say the least.

why isnt the r32 gtr allowed on a racetrack???

mmhmm ...

i'd say andra is blocking it assuming he doesnt have a rollcage and parachute...

i don't think you mean heathcote but calder in melbourne, which is owned by bob jane who tells andra to get stuffed, daryl kerrigan style...

which is why all the 9-10sec VL streeters run at the calder street meets and are still 'legal'

im with stupid ^^^

to me private/owner based cars are worth a hell of a lot more than cars with a vested interest in them, demo cars or mechanic cars of a workshop, whatever.

:uh-huh:

Subzero's skyline ran 5 x 9sec passes on the Wednesday test and tune. the best passes being a 9.81 @ 143mph, 9.81 @ 137mph, 9.84 @ 137mph and a couple of 9.9's. If you were at the Jamboree and know anything about drag racing you would have noticed it was turning the tyres off the line on every pass. Mick was ONLY running 1 bar boost and 100hp NOS, on their last pass mick wound the boost up to 1.6 bar still with 100hp NOS and smoked the tyres to half track. It either needs a better suspension setup and bigger slicks or go the whole hog and fit tubs and a 9 inch with a 4 link rear end. I think my VLT will hook up alot better than the Skyline. :)

As for the GTR it has to have a full cage fitted, racing harnesses and a full tech inspection to be allowed to race at an ANDRA sanctioned track .i.e Willowbank.

PVL.....

I know that the car ran under 9's in testing, however that does not make it official.... I fyou know so much about drag racing than you would know that a test and tune can not be used as a record.... Only can be used as an ET.....

I know the car is capable of sub 9's... Well its a skyline... YEAH

Anyway i was trying to say the car did good. But for a car that had heaps spent on it then it did average...

I liked the lancer better cause its an owner driver / modifer......

My type of car.....

I have been to sub-zero and was not happy with their quotes for jobs to be done to my car.... So there fore i look to better places and their mechanics cars to see what sort of job I can get done.....

      Haha no I'll do that one tomorrow. I've been ignoring it. It's the 5.0 one I'm taking about. (There is a little X to hide the 4.7 one if you want)

      So I'm going to have to keep ignoring the 4.7 update, or whatever version it is? Poop. I was hoping you'd put me out of my misery.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
