wrxhoon,

I am interested I will PM you, I have lost your number. Thanks.

Busted Zed,

Come on pretty boy, the number of times your nissan has been immobile and you want to mouth up about me being soft because of bald tyres. I will keep the lipstick comment, and ensure I dish it back to you the first time you soft up on me. I checked out the forecast and it said rain, but I still intend on turning up. John do you want to do a wet weather challenge. I will give you .5 sec start.

Hey Doughboy we do heaps of track days and drift and now drags and the zed is strong and we push it hard it is not a dyno queen.

Paul yes if wet not on so you can keep your 4wd which would flog me for sure. I wonder how much you would beat me by with 4wd in the wet and then disconnect your front drive shaft and we race rear wheel only in dry. Zed says CYA.

By the way just got home from late night tune after some more tinkering we have been doing last week. Just hit 401rwkw with no more boost and no loss down low with more mid range and top end. Makes 200rwkw at 3400rpm. 10s here we come. Hope weather is good. If rainy or looking like rain then it will be off. If a dog looks like pissing in the marshalling area it is called off.

John, a local workshop by the name of RUF Performance has offered to do the dyno run and boost tune for the same price you offered me, so I'll go with them (much closer), hopefully I'll see you tomorrow night!

I'm still so excited and at the same time very nervous

10s here we come.

You've said this before, John. To be fair though mate, your car could of done it the other day with the right tyres instead of those horrible P-Zero shit-bombs.

You bought Pirelli Slicks for the track cos they're what you're supposed to use - do the same with drags and you'll run the easy tens you never knew you always wanted :D

Well I went out and bought some new tyres last night so Im am all clear if it does not rain tonight.

How do we know if they have called it off, I have an optional meeting from 5-6pm today so I would like to go if the Drags are off.

John, assuming its clear, what time are you heading down?

I am keen and will be there around 4pm I guess. Sunny now this morning but forcast rain so? Does anyone know of a website or do we do the old fashion thing and call WSID to see if on?

Yep 2rismo got the drag wheels and tyres now, line locker and more, just to slam dunk it.

Dezerteagle no probs we are flat out anyway and hope to see you out there. There will be plenty of zed bait for you as a few coming.

Hey B man such confidence now. By the way you coming with the beast?

Paul if your engine falls out then I might listen otherwise get there, and put your lipstick back in your purse.  Or was some wimp from work posting for you?

Look out boys, the boat owner is getting mighty c0cky.

I thought you were sick, I have spoken to your mum and she told me if you didnt work you cannot play. :jk:

Can't believe it's going to rain, I got 70kw out of the car for tonight, this morning.

John, I think you should read this thread too, 70kw for $70

The mechanic said the timing was set all the way back.. he advanced it abit and says its ok since there is no pinging and it's still running very rich.

Have you practiced with the line lock yet John? Simple on paper, harder in reality...

Can't wait for tonite providing it's on. Just wish the Hawks weren't playing as well. I'm so torn... AAHHHH!!!!!

Even have some fuel lined up to keep the timing into it :P

Someone out Penrith way get these clouds to ***rightoffplease!

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
