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.....

    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia body...
    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
