I think it had forgies, not sure. Once he put a set of roller rockers in it it went a lot better.  He wanted some Yella Terra alloy heads but said it wasnt worth it on a 10A.

Whats in your FC,  i like old Holdens...still three on the tree?

My FC is stock.....See you at calder dude, talk is for the weak.

Talk is all i got mate. If i shift my auto manually and stall it up i should be able to break into the 14s...LOOL...this is fun...i havent talked this much sh1t in... in...well it must be hours surely:)

But seriously, have always thought drag racing is too brutal on the car, but just curious to see how the old girl goes, plus want to try a few new things on the car. No more dribble from me... i probably have you worried:)

My car is 5spd manual, isnt yours too :D

Come on, your clutch wont explode.. or will it :Paranoid:

Sh1t...110mph on 5psi...im sure its running the std turbo then:(

In all seriousness if i can get a low 13 or high 12 ill be stoked. I doubt i will though as i dont like launching hard in the car, probably the reason the car has been as reliable as it has over the years:)

Your cars been off the road for long nough, why not just extend that period by blowing the sh*t out of you box!!!

The=n you can take it back to ICE to build a new one out of three old ones they have, that they don't know if it'll work or not..... j/k :spcow:

This is why I have stayed away from drags (Except on the street) at Calder etc. I like the idea of testing your cars power to weight in a straight line, but there are just way too many tools out there. St.Albans style di*ks with an arrogant attitude towards new people. I much prefer the enjoyable track days where everyone can give it a go and we can encourage newbies to join.

I'd like to go down to Calder with you Troy, but we may have to just keep to ourselves.

Come to PI in a fortnight...lol we will help peel your car off the wall when you realise that drag racing is for mummy's boys... throw some big stops and turns into the mix and dra queens go to water:)

:werd:

Just like a drag strip only you have to actualy turn at the end once you hit 200+ k/m :P

Yeah one day I want to give this a shot (if only so I can answer everyone when they ask what my car does down the 1/4! LOL) but until I get 2nd gear fixed I'll have to pass up.

But I'll try to come down for a look and to cheer you on Roy. Just don't break the car again before PI. Actually, you sure you don't want to wait til AFTER PI before you try this mate?

Red...your car sounds tasty... any details. Massive brakes? Cool!..110mph? Cool! Is it a 15yr jap jobbie, modded local delivery?

I like Series IV/V RX7s, almost bought one but where i lived at the time stopped me as the locals would have stolen it in a matter of weeks:(

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
