That's my old boat mate, the box was the standard R33GTS t box, it was rebuilt and modified not that long ago, if its at UNIGROUP now they can tell you about the internal mods, but after the rebuild it did about 20 runs with drag radials which may have upset it again.

I was going to get a better box but instead got a better school for my daughter, LOL.

Don't go off the old dyno sheet that was supplied with the sale, that sheet was taken at UNIGROUP by Stevo during the tuning, it was detuned from there to keep the tune safe as the fuel flow was wanting due to injectors being on the small side, when it left it was running about 380, it will be a totally different beast on E85 with some more boost and tuning.

It should go well with a good fuel set up, it ate nearly everything at the SAU nats for speed and was the fastest and quickest RWD by far, the trophy's are somewhere at UNIGROUP.

Best time at the strip I got was 11.080 @ 132? mph, I want you to get it well into the 10's.

As for the track, now it has a new nut behind the wheel the times should drop there as well.

Tell me when you go and post results.

I also found in the bottom of my toolbox most of a copy of the user manual if you want it, it was sold with one originally with all the spares, its yours if you want it, but only pages 49 to 144.

Do you have the drag radials that I sold with the car, if so they are getting very old and like a big burn out to bring them on.

I think it liked to launch at around 4000 rpm if I recall, less than that it bogged down and any more it just spun, I suppose it will be different with a different tune?

Have you got a Super Street ANDRA licence, if you don't expect to get kicked out the first run the car hooks up, or you can pay for SS licence on the night for $150 or something, they will hit you up at the slip office on your way back .

If you are planning on going more than once you WILL need one.

Its fun beating almost every rego'ed RWD & 4WD street car at the drags (not trailer queens with rego plates that wouldn't pass a pink slip), my favourite win was against some Porsche 4wd turbo thing that cost $300,000, he complained that he didn't have the launch control on, we lined up again and I beat him again, he did have me till half track though, but at half track I flew passed him, laughing .

Ummm yeah I do have them radials he sold them to me with the car they look a bit how you going I'll try them out for the first time plus I just bought 4 brand new rs3 hankook tyres costly but I like them... License wise I plann to get a good time and that's probably it don't want to put the car under a shit load of stress ATM but then again that can all change as I probably just going to keep chasing better times...plus I only had 3 points of my license left and got pulled over in it a few weeks ago and in 3 weeks lose my license...but when I get it back in 3 months I want to start taking it to the track and stuff.. I'm putting it in a mag soon too I'll let you know how dyno and stuff goes next week..

PM me if you are going to WSID and if I'm free I'll come for a look and bring the bits of the user guide I've got.

If not then I will most likely see you on the street, if a big red BF Falcon starts following you don't worry its only me.

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.

      Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
