The trick is to get your 60' times down first. Adding NOS means SFA if you spin you wheels like crazy comming out of the hole.

take staceys quickest two runs for example she babyd the car on these two runs ,left the line better ie.good 60ft and no wheel spin on gear changes.sure a better driver would have gone quicker but for her level of experience no more power is needed until she can learn to drive it on the grip threshold to maximise the power she has got without comprimising grip.

What, like Brett?  11.7 is still a'kickin!

Brett is definitely the exception and you know it, Chris!! ;)

In his case, pay attention to the bit that goes something like, oh how was it again....

128 freaking miles per hour !!!!!!

the car is being stripped at the moment (yes another build-up) doing away with items that dont req.eg hicas abs a/c etc .seam welding chassis installing cage,different suspension setup.big single turbo kit (T51R SPL) going to try for hpi top ten.....hello high power..... goodbye transmission. p.s. PAC boys prefer blondes ....lookout

Maybe I am old fashioned (at 23 years young), but with NOS you can sit there all day running the same time

I wasn't clear in what i meant.... I meant with NOS you will run times better than without NOS etc... then when you run out of NOS the guy next to you without it now starts to beat you, and will continue doing so until you refill your bottle....

in reference to what you read my comment as - i'm sure it would be alot harder to run consistent times with NOS, more to think about, more to get the timing right etc...

these seem to be in the grey weather legal or not.

Ask 10 cops and see what answers you get. I'll put money on it. What if you put Nittos on your car to race? Everything else was stock and they are radial tyres after all... But then you drive home and get pulled over. The cop gets you to pop your bonnet and sees that all is as it should be. Checks your tyres (as your guards are covered in rubber:D)and they're fine too. But what's this? Your tyres don't have the same weight rating that your tyre placcard specifies?

Oh oh.... Your bone stock GTR just got defected for having ILLEGAL tyres. While he's looking at you closer now cos you give him/her a earful of cheek, he notices that your rego sticker is slightly peeling off. What do ya know?!?! Another ticket.

What a shame you can't tell the people on your favourite forum that your times were in street trim, street legal, whatever. Better get that rego sticker re-stuck too!

    • Nah, new members can't post pics until they reach a certain post count. If I get a chance I'll promote you to full member, if @Prank or someone else doesn't get there first.
    • Drilled the rubber out on a slow speed and it didn't catch much at all. Probably only half a dozen holes was enough to shred the rubber and it dropped off easily leaving the inner sleeve behind. Will tackle that later
    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
