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"..

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
