If the weather is kind (sposed to be a few showers) I'll most likely drop down to spectate for the afternoon.

will be on my way home from the A.C.T.so i want to call in and do some testing.Having probs with spark and/or plugs think i might have to invest in some splitfire coils.Had an embarrasing sit at autosalon on dyno as plugs were incorrect and they gave me 5mins to change them on the dyno still probs but made 357kw.was leading comp but supra owner and friend daniel decided to have another go and did me by 8kw.Gapped them down at jakes perf.in canberra and made 380kw.so if weather is ok we will see how we run.

If I finish from the dyno tunning early enough I'll drop in for a look

If the weather holds up, I will be there to watch in the afternoon.

Well done today, Stace. Splitfires will almost certainly fix the problems you were having. See ya at D.C.

Pretty average day really, hardly any spectators and nowhere near as many competitors as I expected. Hopefully it's not like this every Saturday otherwise I think I might have to compete again and do 8 laps like most of the other cars

[Flaps]

Yeah i got there about 12 and i couldnt believe the small numbers!!

I thought about going home and getting my car and i reckoni would have got atleast 8 runs in.

In the last hour i counted one car go thru 5 times!

There was a beautiful R32 GTR there which did 12's all day, I suspect is was a lady driving as well.

Adrian i saw your beast in the carpark, how come you didnt run?

Also what happened to your mates STi on his last run (18sec)?

That would have been Stace's (first post of this thread).

Looked like 2nd was causing some grief but 12.5's all day i'd be quite happy with

Waiting for new rubber

Missed 3rd gear. The 6 speed is really close between shifts and he routinely misses gears. We stripped out all the excess shit in his car, (spare wheel, mats, tools, cd's etc), and fitted the bleed valve, set the boost to 1.2bar and he went 12.7 then 12.6. Not bad considering it's only got minimal mods. FMIC, Exhaust, Springs, Pod. Was fun watching the Defi boost guage play the run back

Benm, I don't think Stace was happy with 12.5's

yeh, managed a best of 12.3. Did 9 runs had excellent fun, not as scared any more. Just couldnt seem to get the power down and the gear changes quick enough. Constantly did 12's (12.7,12.5,12.5,12.6,12.4,13.6,12.3,13.0), except when I missed a gear and went from 2nd to 5th.......13.6, and still won!!). Need to get spiltfire coils as the spark was blowing out and I had to reduce the boost down to 1.5 bar. Need to learn how to do a burnout so I can get the tyres hotter, as I had some wheel spin off the line. Maybe setup a switch to turn the fronts off. Bit embarrasing as I was the only car all day not doing a burnout . Car sounds different now with no muffler (like a 13B, poor me!!).

But you're just a chick Try stuffing burnouts up when you're a bloke

ROFL!!!

Now I know how to do them properly I wave to the officials and the camera guys while I'm doing them

Stace that is a beautiful exhaust note, wish mine sounded like that

Starts = practice. Im not expert at them either, just have fun

3.5 inch titanium exhaust pipe with no muffler is on my wish list.hope car behaves at drag combat on the 29th because im having the time of my life drag racing my beast....

so who r the ppl on dis web site dat dont think a standard r33 will run a 13.9 at 104.7mph

[benm]

A 104.7mph pass will yield a 13.9 no worries but define 'standard' ?

[R33vit]

so who r the ppl on dis web site dat dont think a standard r33 will run a 13.9 at 104.7mph

Damn, I've run a 13.9 @ 101mph on street tyres

[rev210]

my old gtst was pretty standard appart from an exhaust and it ran 13.8@101mph on 205 tyres.

[XPLAER]

:Bang: standard is just tuned by one of the best in the gong,exhaust 18/235/45 .7 reaction time if i can get dat better i should be able 2 run a low 13. dat 13.9 was on street tyres its so hard 2 get traction. :flamed:
