Intradasting, i found that Winton was easier on the car than a place like Sandown. Plenty of run offs too incase something went wrong.

without a doubt I would classify winton being nicer on a car, lower speeds more run off more technical so HP does not always win.

sandown you need big brake and HP

as they say it's 2 drag strips linked by a couple of corners

I will be too.

driving it felt much quicker than the stagea at 300kw, although that car was extremely laggy.

torque definitely feels good in it though. a very different car to what i've owned.

Intradasting, i found that Winton was easier on the car than a place like Sandown. Plenty of run offs too incase something went wrong. Did you drive the Pulsar? According to Natsoft you were in a 180sx?

Higher revs at lower speeds and warm humid air wasnt doing the turbos any favours.

Was in the pulsar, not sure why it says that. Im not even sure I did 20 laps either hmmmm. But yeah, you can see on the results the crazy mix of times with classes. the next fastest car from me in the Newbies class was 5 secs quicker, and then another 5 secs for the next fastest.

Tony what RWKW and brakes are you expecting to have for sandown?

Im booked in on Monday to see Trent for the tune.

Im expecting a track tune of 270rwkw Im guessing.

Brakes as per normal. DBA4000 but getting EBC blues from Richo. Previously had Resma's

It's funny but I get my faster lap times at the end of each session when I get into the groove of things, where my car starts to overheat, didn't notice much brake fade. But then maybe I'm not pushing it hard enough :P

Will def need to sort out cooling issues though to get the most laps out of each session. Oil temps was already up to 130c in about 4 laps in the afternoon.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
