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

the R32 GTR, he is no longer allowed back on the track unless he races at Heathcote Melbourne which is an private track.

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.....

    • Slap a 460L into the car, send its mum.  
    • So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again. 
    • Doing it this weekend. For sure this time. Thank you forum gods.  And im running map sensor now with the haltech. Still have the AFMs attached to the mushroom dome shaped air filter things
    • Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).
    • Blitz ER34 at some point hopefully, should be allowed in Gr3 if they do.
