How many of these car's actually drive to the track under there own steam and not on a trailer + how many of them change there tires once they get to the track.... a true street car should be able to rock up to the track, do a few passes, then drive home simple as that.

That Yellow Corolla used to when it was running 8s, not sure now that it has the wheelie bars. Also his 7.97 was run on 275 Dot aprroved tyres.

Event points.

h) 400 metre sprint Each crew will score points towards their nominated forum based on their fastest lap for the event to the following scale

1.25. Fastest outright-40 points

1.26. Fastest 4WD 20 points

1.27. Fastest- RWD 20 points

1.28. Fastest- FWD 20 points

I was trying to point out what can happen if dot approved tyres and rego are the only rules, anyways mite have to make a weekend of it and drive down. Are all event going to be open to

spectators Ash? get my go SAU banners and Pom poms.lol

Thanks Brad

It's an ARC round Brad = 100% spectator driven.

In fact the more ticket that sell under the "SAU" banner, more points we receive.

More details to come on that in a few weeks, so hold off for now. But it will be an awesome event. I've been in contact with some rather special cars :thumbsup:

Again - On DOT Approved Radials.

Both those cars are tubbed on slicks :rolleyes:

Mark Hayes' Torana is a baby hydraulic cammed 496ci that'd be lucky to run a 10. Scott Hoffman's OKE020 is registered and runs 7's on radials but isn't together. BU5TER is a roller with no engine (when it comes back the new owner is looking for 7's, no rego and on big f**king slicks). Surely something running low-10's/high-9's from SAU would shit this in?!

We are hoping to run a mid to high 9sec pass on the 19inch Advan AD08's on our next outing, will not be putting17inch M/T's tyres on until we have can absolutely cannot get any more improvement on the Advans at this point in time the car is still under testing and is getting faster and faster with every run. Can't wait to head back out to the track and crack a 9sec pass.

Well the entry list is now upto 4 cars for the 400m dash

AND...

NO MORE STREET REGO

I've dropped a PM to superjet, however he has not been online in over a month. If someone knows him personally and could give him quick call and point him in his PM box direction it would be great!

As the rules have changed, anyone with some non-rego'd cars around??? I reckon there would be a few interested people now especially given we need a team of FOUR!!!

HUGE NEWS!!!

superjet760 looks like making the trip to Melbourne, to fly the SAU flag in the 400m

8.9 sec pass on DOT radials - Perhaps even faster.

Will have 100% confirmation in approx 2 weeks, and pending no more setup issues (or unfortunate failures) - this is a GO!

This is some excellent awesome news. Still need 2 more cars at this stage.

Spread the word - Team SAU is taking brilliant shape already.

im not caged or teched but im happy to go out on radials with my gtr... still a stock 5 spd at the moment but the T400 shouldnt be too far away... (been saying this since may but apparently everything is ready to go)

mine makes around 1050 at the wheels at the moment but if i race it ill prob throw another 5 pounds in it.

if not, im ready to hire out WSID for a private day and do some testing if anyone is keen shoot me a message.

I heard this made 1300hp with the auto :worship:

1300hp at the wheels. Should run 7.4 .. We make 1200 hp all 4 wheels to run 7.6 at 180 plus mph .

We ran 8.69 on my drag radials .. Liberty trans .. 9.0 with ppg .. Auto is similar to a clutch less box .. Very easy to drive prob nos of the trans brake also ..

If we continued on the drag radials a 7.9 sec pass would be possible but grip level would be questionable !!!!

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
