yeh was a good night, well done to Dr Drift on beating the bresciani Vl, only because it got 5meters off the line and broke something but still a win. lol

Also congrats to a friend of mines bro whos Rabjab Purple VL ran a 10.31 @ 131mph

Mesh mesh, you get any good times in the GTR i saw one run but i dont know if it was a 13 something or a 12 something cause those Calder Park timing boards are fcked.

Hi SLY,

it was my first time.. so i'll put it this way.. my 60ft was 6sec "yes 6~sec", my time was 15~sec "yes 15~" the car was misfiring the whole way, and I did 112mph.

:cheers: hopefully we'll go again next week, and bring the some other cars along aswell... Now just need to find someone who can friggin drive [looks arond]

Spent most of the night watching cars blow up  

2 runs for the night high water and intake temps and easy launches saw

12.6 and 12.3

then rain  cancelled the night

Saw you run... very impressed, what have you done to it, looked like you were moving hard! What was your MPH?

we decided not to run it, coz didn't wanna look like tossa's. But after seeing the 2 mercs "S600 (13.0) & E55 (12.4)" there last night, we might take it next week.

Nothing tossa about running a mid 12 in a family saloon. What's with the 6 second 60ft, I remember the night at the karts you were the king of launch control :cheers:

It is not my car i just helped build it

umm if you want to see what it has come and have a look next week @ calder and ask us to pop the bonnet

245 rwkw on 15psi pump fuel street tyres full street trim 11.92 @ 115 mph is best so far don't know what mph was run last night as i didn't get there until those runs were done.

Hey rrrage, those RYVE numberplates that you blanked out aren't real numberplates... Ryan would probably prefer that you didn't blank them out! ;)

andrew is there some reason he hasn't tried avgas in it?

it would be interesting to see if it makes a difference.

AVGAS? its a street car running mobil synergy 8000

we might play with some sunico or c16 once the boost is wound over 20 psi ;)

andrew: hopefully I'll see you there next week.

SLY: wow 11.9, I think that car has a chip & and changed supercharge pulley. Yeh my 60ft time was wacked because later I found out I broke the line and the time started, but me was still sitting there "having a fag, talking to the misses on the mobile ;)" waiting to go!!...

I wonder if benm will let me add my slip to his collection?? Now that should be something.

I had a great night, something about the colour YELLOW, that yellow Monaro was f*&king awesome, that YELLOW rotary RX4 that nearly lost it on the track, bresciani's YELLOW VL blowing his "I think TURBO"..

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
