BOOSTD: wrxhoon's name is jerry ;) and his best times were 12.07(pretty sure) but i know he ran 12.1.. apparently his last run was shit (after i left) so u must have seen that :D

terminal speed was 120mph on his best run, but with a crappy 2.0something 60 foot time, so could be a lot faster!

That m coupe was crazy! sounded good...and backed it up :)

yea you are right arup best time was 12.069 @120.24 mph and 2.017 60 ft

that was the run i had with bill ( butthead ) he ran [email protected] mph and 1.866 60 ft .

bill ran 12.1 on his last run .

on my last run i got a good start 1.873 60 ft but then hit the cutout anded up running 12.333 @115.89 mph

on an earlier run i did 12.157 @119.87 mph and 2.089 60 ft ( bogged down on that run not enough rpm and dropped the clutch to quick .

it was much easier to take off with the smaller turbos .

it must have been very slippery today though , mick could only get 2.0 6o ft ,

last time we went he got 3 runs 1.8.. , 1.8.. and 1.7...

ah well i'm goping to have another go at 11 pass sometime in the near future ( went so close today i'm sure i'll get it )

next time u will hopefully get the 11 sec pass, it is a definite possibility...coming down to the launch and how slippery it is i guess!! it was great to watch, cant wait to have a run myself (when i actually get another car!)

Im not even going to bother saying what i got other than pissed off with numerous things. Good thing u didnt come up jase was a waste of time. Organisation was shit and i arived at 3:30 and only got 2 runs after 2.5 hours in the scrutineering line. what a ****ing joke!!!!!!!

One good thing was that I had a few words with the events co ordinator and also with Jim Reid himself and let them in on a few problems going on in the night that with some work could improve things for everyone in the future. Heres hoping it does!!!!

I guess ill just have to wait till the next street meet and see if anything changes.

Cheers

Scott.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.

      Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
